You’ve got to do your local marathon, and with the start line literally outside my door, there was no excuse really. I’d signed up late last year not really sure of what my plan would be, and with my first 100 mile race planned only 4 weeks after this, it had to be a … Continue reading Edinburgh Marathon

From Fan Dancing on Pen Y Fan to running in all colours of the rainbow
It was a tough week to get the miles in, some long days at work meant for a real push to get out at all. So I was pleased to have a tough event scheduled for Saturday to push my limits. Hubby and I had entered The Fan Dance, run by Avalanche Events, a 25km … Continue reading From Fan Dancing on Pen Y Fan to running in all colours of the rainbow
Fell running on the Trans Pennine Trail
I wanted more out of this week than 'just' running, and I made this happen. Monday was my easy day, a bit of a cycle commute to and from work, but with a twist....I went to the pool and swam a kilometre before getting a relieving sports massage for 40 minutes that I'd managed to … Continue reading Fell running on the Trans Pennine Trail

From the hills of Shropshire to the Peaks
Started off the week with a lovely 9 mile hike from Carding Mill Valley up over part of the Long Mynd with a dear friend (& fellow blogger smirnieoutdoors.blogspot.co.uk).

It was lovely to natter away and soak up the … Continue reading From the hills of Shropshire to the Peaks

Toenail issues Day 24 Janathon
As fellow runners will attest to, running can cause havoc with your nails. I am fully used to have black toenails and one or two that disappear for a bit, and the fact that the duvet sitting on top of your toes actually hurts 😁. I normally deal with this by keeping my nails trimmed … Continue reading Toenail issues Day 24 Janathon
Snowfit Day 20 Janathon
It was Bioticfits launch day at new location of Ryecroft Hall, Tameside, initially had plans to go, then awaking at 9am thought better of it......that was until I looked at Facebook and got the guilt trip from Jams asking for support for the new venue, so coffee down the hatch, a quick change, race down … Continue reading Snowfit Day 20 Janathon
Snowfit Day 15 Janathon
Of all the days to pick.....I managed to convince 3 of my work colleagues to try out Bioticfit on the first day that Didsbury actually got some snow! Fair play to them they not only turned up, with 3 other crazy bioticfitters, but aced it! Was super proud that they got through the full hour … Continue reading Snowfit Day 15 Janathon
