Running Kit I’m Stocking up on Black Friday 2023
Black Friday sales are a great time to stock up on essentials like running fuel, socks, and sports bras, as well as picking up pricier items, your next pair of trainers, a new running jacket or just something pretty you've had your eye on. With that said, I'm really trying not to go overboard this year and am only picking up a few 'essentials' - in particular I want to try to find a new waterproof running jacket. I find sales overwhelming and I know I can't be alone in that, so I've shared just a few items from my top running brands which I hope is useful (contains affiliate links). Running...

Comparing The New Brooks Ghost Max Vs. Ghost 15
I’ve been not-so-patiently waiting for the Brooks Ghost Max to be released since I first learned about them in August. I don’t quite know why the UK seems to be the last location for the Ghost Max to be available (or why the colour options are so different to North America - more on this later…) but they are finally here. Last week in the US I picked up a pair so this is a first impressions review having taken them out a couple of times compared to the hundreds of miles I’ve logged in the Ghost 15s. But first impressions are good. I love a cushioned shoe. To be honest,...

The Best Places to Run and Refuel in Graz, Austria
I was invited to Graz on a press trip back in August (side note - one of the most thoroughly planned press trips with an invite months in advance which was very helpful to organise for Tom to some shared parental leave). I have to be honest, I hadn't actually heard of...
Taking a Run Class at Peloton Live Studios, London
I’ve had my Peloton bike for nearly two years and whilst I don’t use it as often as I did due to marathon training, I still love it. As well as the bike classes, I’ve also taken a number of running classes either outside or on my (non-Peloton) tread at home. My...

Chicago Marathon Abbott 5K Race Recap
AKA I paid £35 for a beanie, and ran 5K. This race is a must for those travelling over to Chicago to run the marathon in my opinion. We started race morning at Starbucks, buying hot drinks to keep our hands warm. Donned in our beanies (breaking the cardinal race...
London Marathon 2022 Race Recap
Huge thanks to Flora for the race bib for this year's London Marathon! Maths is hard, it's even harder when you're 3 and a half hours into a marathon and dealing with a GPS watch that has gone haywire around Canary Wharf. I was trying to work out, based on average...
