Photo: Zoe Illingworth First, can we just say how much we love this photo by Zoe Illingworth, taken in the seemingly interminable queue for the start line at the Jane Tomlinson Leeds 10k. We had no idea she was taking it (clearly I go around grinning gormlessly all the time…) and only came across it…
Cherry Coconut Crunch
At closing time on Saturdays, the traders at our local market get rid of tons of produce for next to nothing, making way for new stock coming in after the weekend. I’ve been known to come home with bags full of plums (jam for the making of), avocados (guacamole, anyone?), tomatoes, cauliflowers, carrots, sweet potatoes,…
Trail run up Roseberry Topping
Since I moved to Teesside earlier this year, I’ve been wanting to run up Roseberry Topping. It’s one of the highest peaks in the North York Moors, and is iconic for people in the area. I was lucky enough to get some new trail shoes this week, and wanted to give them a proper outing….
Black Dahl with Slow Roasted Tomatoes and Chilli
If you’ve tried our Slow Roasted Tomatoes with Chilli and Garlic, you’ll know that it’s a dish with an intense, savoury-sweet taste that can be used as the basis for loads of other recipes. With just a tiny bit of tweaking, it makes the perfect foundation for this subtly spicy, fresh-tasting black dahl dish. Last…
The Perfect Vegetarian Picnic
It being summertime here in the UK, we’ve been thinking a lot about picnics lately. We’ve noticed that the shops are full of flaccid pies, dreary dips and limp salads, all purporting to be ‘perfect for picnics’. Psht, they’re messing with us! Homemade picnics win by miles. That said, you don’t have to do it…
Vegan Aubergine and Roasted Red Onion Dip
It’s picnic season here in the UK so we’ve been busy cooking up dips, spreads and other forms of transportable deliciousness. This Vegan Aubergine and Roasted Red Onion Dip fits the bill perfectly; we had this along with several other treats for post-race refuelling after the Castle Howard 10k recently. Worth the run for the…
Classic Guacamole
Making your own guacamole is so quick and easy it seems like madness to buy the bland, pappy stuff they sell in supermarkets. This is very simple, mega-tasty and knocks soggy, shop-bought soggy guacamole out of the water. Avocado is a good source of dietary fibre, potassium, B-6 and Vitamin C. It has quite a high…

Beetroot Salad with Yoghurt and Mint Dressing
Research shows that beetroot improves your running performance – it’s the nitrates that do it. For obvious reasons then, most runners love beetroot. But even if your main priority as a runner is simply putting one foot in front of the other, beetroot has a lot of other things going for it. It’s a good source of…
Ras el Hanout Veg Quiche with Feta and Caramelised Onions
Perfect Picnic Provisions! Quiche is robust enough to cart about anywhere, and the ras el hanout adds an edge to make it an elegant addition to a spread. We made this to have after the Castle Howard 10K, knowing that the protein in the eggs and pastry would be fantastic for our recovery. I’d imagine…
