The Best High Impact Sports Bras for Runners with Big Boobs

Every female runner *should* be running in a high impact sports bra. Research shows just how much your chest tissue moves around when you run and how much damage is caused if you don't have some real support, no matter your size. However, for those of you that have...

Adidas Adizero EVO SL Shoe Review

Adidas Adizero EVO SL Shoe Review

There aren't many shoes I would run a marathon right out of the box in... OK, that's a bit of a lie, because unless I'm racing for a time, I'm usually willing to put things to the test in pursuit of a good review opportunity. But truthfully there aren't many...

Is the Garmin Venu 3S Good Enough for Marathon Training?

I have worn a number of Garmin watches over the years, from the Forerunners to Fenix models but this was my first time trialling the Venu range (kindly sent by Very.co.uk to test). Garmin Running Smartwatch Venu 3S Running watches range hugely in both price and...

UppaBaby Ridge Running Buggy Review 

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!)...
