Returning to Running and Exercise after Pregnancy
Before starting back running after baby Stanley’s birth, I went to see Rob White at Challenge Physio to get the all clear for starting to train again. I’ve really missed running since I gave it up at 7 months pregnant, and I wanted to make sure that I remain injury free once I do start up again. I…
Five Easy Ways To Beat Stress
In recent months, I’ve been going through a period of intense busy-ness: starting a demanding new job in a new city, buying a new flat in a different area altogether (logic never was my strong point!), living between two different places, often on the road, driving hundreds of miles each month, seemingly always packing – and…

5 Things You Need To Know About Yoga Teacher Training
Why a post about 5 Things You Need To Know About Yoga Teacher Training on a running blog, you may ask? Well, we Veggie Runners love running and we love yoga. So much, indeed, that we founded Roga™, a unique run-yoga approach to fitness, with Yoga Hero. I’ve been running for a long time and…

Running Back to Myself
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…
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…
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…
5 Ways To Enjoy Tapering
Tapering can be torment but we Veggie Runners have some tips to help you enjoy the experience. When you’ve been marathon training for months, tapering is miserable. It seems counterintuitive but giving your body a rest at this stage in the game can be pure torture. With the Yorkshire Marathon looming over us, we’re hitting the…
4 Reasons Runners Should Do Yoga
You know how much we love running but, well, a change is as good as a rest and all that. We do like to treat ourselves to a bit of cross training too. Plus, let’s be honest, it’s hard to keep pounding out the miles in depths of winter and, while it hasn’t been particularly cold here in…
