UppaBaby Ridge Running Buggy Review
UppaBaby is a well respected, premium brand within the buggy market and many friends have UppaBaby buggies for everyday use (we just use a Babyzen Yoyo and Thule Urban Glide 2) which has definitely saved us a lot of space and meant we don’t need 3 buggies (or more!) as many families do. I typically run 2-3 times a week with the buggy, usually 3-5 miles at a time and often with the dog too (although I imagine this will increase when I stop marathon training). As mentioned, the running buggy I use is the Thule Urban Glide 2, which is a top of the range running buggy that I’ve put well over...

Coros Pace 3 – Kipchoge Edition Review
I've been a Garmin girl almost since I started running. The first watch I bought was a huge old Garmin that took up most of my wrist and definitely could not be worn at any other time aside from running. Luckily running watches have come long way in the last 12 years with many other players now in the market. One of the biggest of these, certainly in terms of volume within mass market runners is Coros. I resisted trying a Coros until I could no longer ignore the rave reviews from friends on the battery life, GPS and reliability. This review is my personal opinion of Coros Pace 3, with some...
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...
Madeira Travel Guide
This year I was lucky enough to visit Madeira twice, once in March with my friend Amanda (we do a trip somewhere together every year) and more recently, in August, with my family, including my 90 year old Grandfather. The two trips, as you can imagine, were...

How To Run The SuperHalfs
A few years ago my main running goal was to complete the Marathon Majors (running London, New York, Berlin, Boston, Chicago and Tokyo marathons). I collected my Six Star Medal in Tokyo in 2018 and whilst I’m not so secretly hoping that they add another marathon or two...
Half Marathon Fuelling Guide
I know far too many runners that don’t fuel during a half marathon, claiming that they ‘don’t need to’. And whilst it’s true that you can get through a 13.1 mile run without taking on extra carbs, you are unlikely to perform at your best and you’re more likely to...
Uplift Oregon 5K Race Recap
A race within a race. As a way of involving both the local community and those travelling to Oregon from out of town to watch the Athletics World Champs, Asics put on a 5K race within the Men's Marathon race. I was kindly gifted a bib to the race. Uplift Oregon 5K...
My Favourite Sports Bras: Triumph Triaction Sports Bra Review
If you thought finding the right pair of running trainers was hard...for many runners, finding the right sports bra is like finding the Holy Grail. After too many post-run shower moments when I realised I'd chafed on my ribs, back, shoulders etc, the times where I've...
