At the end of July, I knew I needed to start running again. Injuries and persistent pain have made me a bit scared about running. My trip to Malawi, which includes three 20km trails runs, means I need to be fit and healthy. In order to get over my fear and slowly...

For the third year in a row, I made my way down to Tobacco Docks early on a Saturday morning. It usually takes some sort of workout for me to get up early and Sweatlife Festival is no exception. For about £30, you have a multitude of 45 minute classes to choose...

On Thursday afternoon, I was back at Function360 for my check up. I am only going every three weeks now which is great because it means I am nearly done with my recovery. It is also sad though because I love seeing the team (especially Hugo, the office dog). My...
