Every year since 2012, we Veggie Runners have worked with Space2, an arts and social change charity, to bring the joy and madness of Light Night Leeds Art Runs to the city streets. The runs have grown exponentially, from 30 runners in the first year to over 200 book-up-in-a-heartbeat participants in 2016. We don’t need to…
6 Hearty Vegan Soups
As the weather draws in, we start thinking about soup and dark runs with headlamps. With our marathon behind us, our next goal is Leeds Abbey Dash at the beginning of November. This means that October will be full of tempo runs as the light just changes to dark, and we’ll want to be tucked up…
Loch Ness Marathon Race Report 2016
Enjoying every mile of a whole marathon, from the first step to mile 26, sounds like an impossible hope. But that’s genuinely how I felt during Loch Ness Marathon this weekend.

Pink Lady Pilates Core Workouts

The ‘Three Runs a Week’ Marathon Training Plan for a PB
Can you get a marathon PB with just 3 runs a week? That was what I managed last time I trained for 26.2. I followed the FIRST marathon training plan, and knocked a whopping 31 minutes off my previous personal best. I’m not aiming for knocking any more time off this year – Loch Ness…

Finding the Time for Fitness – 48 Hour Challenge
What’s possible in a weekend? We’re often asked how we manage to fit exercise into our busy lives. We approach it a different way – exercise is what we like to do, not something we add in so we often shuffle other things aside to fit fitness into our lives. Neutrogena challenged us to complete…
