Feels great to be back racing again at Chester half Mara today after the Boston marathon, although I’m still carrying a lot of fatigue 🥱

Picked up a lot of niggles and injuries this year, long distance running after 3 children and the demands of a 2 year old in your forties isn’t fun 🤪😭

Had so much fun out there today and that’s what it’s all about 🫶🏻🏃🏼‍♀️ 12th lady in my age category out of 375

The half marathon distance is one of my favourite and can’t wait to work on this more over the next few months.

Next stop is a 50k ultra in July in the peaks - my first attempt at an ultra 💪🏻

Renewal time, post marathon, it’s all about the kids and enjoying running together on a weekend at parkrun. I love sharing this sport with the girls 🏃🏼‍♀️

A PB for Phoebe with 29 mins across 5k

Amelia completed the 5k which for someone that doesn’t enjoy running, is a great achievement 🫶🏻 haha although her face says never again

I have a couple of rare spots available at my small group strength class tomorrow at 9am 💪🏻🫶🏻

Maybe this is your sign to try something new!

Led by Hannah in a private studio space with like minded women. Modifications for all levels.

Always grateful to have this job. Coaching women and a handful of men to their running and strength goals. I really do have the nicest of clients to work with.

Such a varied morning after dropping the kids off

Training the lovely Fay in the studio, onto Stamford Park to kick start 2 new clients who have buddied up together to start running again with a series of 400 metre reps ran on effort - with a 15 month baby in tow 🫶🏻 I always make sessions work around children as I know the juggles.

And then easing Melissa back into her next training block post London marathon, after her epic 3:17 race.

Then squeezing my own 45 min speed session in!

Now off to parents evening and the second shift begins 🤣

A trained Sarah last year for the Manchester marathon - her first
This year she headed to London to do it all over again at one of the best marathons in the world 🌎
She definitely has the bug!
Super proud of you Sarah and how far you’ve come with your running
What’s next?!

3:17 for Melissa today at the London marathon
A phenomenal run with near perfect splits ✨
Super proud coach 🏃🏼‍♀️🫶🏻💪🏻

Wishing the amazing Melissa a great London marathon tomorrow.

I’ve trained Melissa for 2 years meeting every week outdoors in rain, wind, hail, you name it. This is where the improvements and magic happens. We have made a time improvement on the marathon from 3:50 to chasing a sub 3:15 today 💪🏻

Nothing but hard graft whilst working full time as a lawyer with 2 children.

She’s had an incredible block and I am so excited for her to realise her dreams 🫶🏻

Have the recent marathons left you feeling inspired?

I train men and ladies from coach to 5k up to ultra distance, with everything in between both virtually with bespoke plans and online support and in person coaching in Hale/Bowdon and Altrincham.

I have supported clients back to running after having children, illness and injury to achieve goals they never thought possible ✨

If you have a specific running goal please get in touch for a chat 💬 places are limited for 2026/27

Some of my amazing clients who I’ve trained over the last few years 💪🏻🫶🏻❤️

Promise this will be the last Boston post and normal service will resume 🤣

I’m so happy to be back home for a 🛀 and my own bed! 🛌 and Nancy

Boston is a tough course, with plenty of elevation and hills combined with jet lag, birthdays and a busy family holiday to NYC and Boston, I’m feeling very tired 🥱 but still riding high on such an epic day. It lived up to the hype and more 💙💛🦄

I’m so grateful to have ran another marathon. It is a privilege ✨ and I love this sport so much for what it gives to me. I have never finished the last 10k of a marathon so strong and I know there is more to come.

So with Boston and Manchester done, I’m excited for my clients running the London marathon on Sunday. Another iconic race with the best crowds.

Thank you to all my lovely friends and clients who sent good luck, congratulations messages and love these last few days, it’s been so kind and means so much to me!

We have raised 2.25k to Cure Leukaemia ❤️

On Monday I ran the Boston marathon 🇺🇸 to raise money for a charity that is supporting two of my oldest school friends Clare and Alex as their beautiful 1 year old daughter Rosa battles a rare form of leukaemia (ALL) with only 15 babies getting this type of cancer each year.

We have raised 2.1k and would love to get us up to £2.5k

Please read their story

Hoping in some small way this makes a difference ❤️
