It was a holiday, I suppose. But it was also so much more than that. It was a homecoming, and a reunion, a coming of age, coming back to my self. When I was 16, my mum and I moved halfway across the world to Victoria, British Columbia, where we lived for nearly 5 years. I…
Let’s Play #MinsGame
Hobbled by sciatica and going slightly stir crazy, I’ve just played the #MinsGame, which motivated me to sort out my sh*t and helped keep my head in check. With that in mind, let’s think of this as a mental health post rather than a physical one for a change. The Minimalists, two former corporate workers who decided there…
Hazelnut and Date Breakfast Smoothie
As you know, we Veggie Runners love a hearty breakfast. Indeed, sometimes we love breakfast so much we have two. True fact. Occasionally, though, life gets in the way – flights to catch, early meetings, even earlier runs, that kind of thing – and the best option is to have a breakfast shake ready to…
Wild Runs with Sweaty Betty at Wilderness Festival
What makes a great festival? It would have to be great people, good food (for body and mind), music, art, literature, sunshine, fun and Wild Runs with us from a Sweaty Betty Zen Den. You won’t get the latter at any old festival though; for that you’ll have to get yourself to Wilderness Festival next…
Green Tea, Kale and Cacao Nibs Smoothie
This Green Tea, Kale and Cacao Nibs Smoothie brings together some of the healthiest ingredients on the planet. If you don’t feel zingy after drinking this, you probably need some serious help. Or another serving – we’d definitely recommend trying that option first. This smoothie is bursting with goodness, is rich in anti-oxidants and can help…
Chocolate Orange Popcorn Energy Bars
Yes, you heard that right! These are some of the yummiest hits of vegan foody madness that you’re ever likely to lay hands on. Popcorn is having a big moment these days, as I’m sure you’ve noticed. It’s positively trendy and there are dozens of gourmet (really?) flavours in the shops right now. No one has…
It’s Never Too Late to Start
It’s not too late to start your journey into fitness. Maybe you didn’t like running at school. Maybe running around in a polo shirt and shin guards made you feel self-conscious, with a mouth full of gum shield and spit. Maybe you didn’t like being shouted at for shuffling your feet when you were passed the ball…
Revisiting the Race for Life
My running journey began in earnest back in the mid-90s. Prior to that, I was a keen swimmer and cyclist who’d dabbled a bit in running but never taken it very seriously. That all changed with a Race for Life 5k, which changed my life as it has for many other people. A friend asked…
Sweaty Betty Roga Brunch
The Roga revolution continues apace. Last weekend we teamed up with Sweaty Betty for a fantastic Roga brunch. We started with a city run, followed it with yoga between the fountains in the stunning Victoria Quarter and then back to the store for food, glorious food. All of our Roga events are carefully themed and…
Hello Roga!
Two fantastic things are happening in Leeds this summer.* One is the start of the Roga Revolution, the other the opening of the exciting new Hello Work co-working space in Leeds Dock. We were lucky enough to combine the two with an energising, packed-to-the-rafters Roga workshop recently. Running is great, we all know that. Yoga…
