Setting a New Years Resolution

New Years Resolutions can be such a double edged sword.  You can set yourself up for something amazing purely because of the opportunity to set yourself a target and be ambitious, but on the other hand you could be setting yourself up for failure and disappointment. I think they’re a good thing, but I’m definitely… Read More Setting a New Years Resolution

A Week in my Festive Trainers

I can’t believe that Christmas has happened already, I’d like a few more days of it please! I managed to fit in a few workouts this week which I’m really pleased about, but the impetus for much of those was through a desire to workout or go running and make the most of a situation… Read More A Week in my Festive Trainers

Looking back on 2015

2015 – what a year! I started January unemployed, on the verge of training for my first marathon, and with no real idea of what the future held for me or what I wanted it to hold.  As someone who has always set herself impossibly high standards and relied on traditional measures of success such… Read More Looking back on 2015

A Week in my Trainers

I’ve had a mad week of Christmas parties and naughty treats, and the closest I’ve come to sporting excellence was being in the audience and the Worlds Darts Championships at Alexandra Palace on Thursday night (an insanely fun team outing that I definitely recommend – knowledge of darts not necessary). I’m so glad that I write… Read More A Week in my Trainers

A Week in my Trainers

My weekly training post is slightly late this week as I spent yesterday evening in the company of friends, Turkey and my favourite bread sauce.  I managed to fit in quite a lot of movement into my week last week despite my first office Christmas party on the Tuesday night wiping out Wednesday… and Thursday.… Read More A Week in my Trainers

What I wanted to know before my first marathon

  This time last year I stood on the brink of many things; a new year, my first year out of full time education since the age of four, potential unemployment as my internship was coming to an end, and training for my first marathon.  I had so many questions about marathon training, and there… Read More What I wanted to know before my first marathon

A Week in My Trainers

Silly Season has well and truly arrived, and I’ve written about some tips and tricks you can use to enjoy yourself without losing all control and semblance of a healthy lifestyle. However, the flip side of less than spectacular eating and drinking on school nights means little time to be active and go to the… Read More A Week in My Trainers

How to get through Silly Season

Silly season has arrived. I personally believe this is the hardest time of the year to be healthy because there is an excuse for a festive drink or a party pretty much every day. Even if you avoid the champagne, canapé and one more drink won’t hurt diet there’s the temptation of staying in with… Read More How to get through Silly Season
