Be Pretty Fit

I’ve now been training in the new Mizuno Evo range for a few weeks and feel I’ve had a good chance to really test them out and get in to training in a minimalist shoe. It’s definitely had an impact on my training, both positive and negative, and I thought I’d share my top tips… Continue reading Barefoot Lessons

I am passionate about healthy living - everyone deserves to feel fit, healthy and beautiful. Too many women focus on their flaws and do not love and accept themselves; this has to change. My aim is to explore the issues that are relevant to women who want to be fit and healthy, without overcomplicating things.… Continue reading Calling all crew

Last weekend I was invited down to Westfield to meet some super ace fitness babes from women’s supplement maker Maxitone. They launched Maxitone atWestfield (#maxiwestfield because we all love a hashtag), which is a pop-up Maxitone store, fitness studio and nutrition consultancy over in the main atrium at Shepherd’s Bush for the next two weeks.… Continue reading Maxitone at Westfield

On my most recent stalk I came across the Windsor Trail Half Marathon, a new race in its first year which looks totally ace. It’s all off road but completely flat, which means it’s a good introductory trail race… Continue reading Ace Race

Last night the lovely people at BOOM! Cycle invited me down to try out a spin class with their legendary instructor Keith. Naturally I jumped at the chance! I haven’t been to that many spin classes, mainly because the last one I went to was absolutely brutal and I came out slightly scarred! I was… Continue reading “The hardest spin class in London”
