It's offical; I'm addicted. I've gone and done it again. I applied for VMLM for 2016. I'm not sure if I will even do it; if I get in. Will I ever learn? I can't seen to stop;. Why do I feel the need to train for a marathon, work two jobs, study for a de...
Hi,
I'm back again. It's definitely safe to say I'm a bit glutton when I comes to punishment, but I did it! I had been privileged enough to be part of 2015's Virgin Money London Marathon via the ballot system and had chosen to use my place to run on beh...

Last Saturday, I took part in the Women’s Running 10k race in Finsbury Park, London.

Running Clubs are a great way to keep yourself motivated and to make the most of your evening runs, whether it's the summer or winter. If you're like me, you've been thinking of joining a running club for a while but need a bit of convincing, before ac...
There’s something, that can give your workout, that little push, transforming a mediocre workout into an exceptional one and for me it's usually about having a great running song / playlist that will do just that. Actually having the right song at the r...
