Hearing women's stories of resilience, stubborness and pure grit is always inspiring. This was no different at Coast And Trails Festival on . ๐Ÿ’œ

It was a privilege to be on stage with Carol Morgan, the first woman to complete the Winter Bob Graham Round unsupported. Her story is filled with mind boggling determination and truly encapsulates not giving up.

It was lovely to relive some Frog Graham moments whilst chatting with Mel, and hear all the incredible work that Due North do to support more women get out in the hills, and hearing about the West Coast Wanderers! โ›ฐ๏ธ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ

Plus, it felt a real gift to watch Tahira's film, as well as other inspiring films from London Mountain Film Festival.

Thanks to for the lovely venue. I left feeling super inspired for future adventures, the little ones as well as the bigger ones. โ˜€๏ธ

๐ŸŽ™Debut podcast alert๐ŸŽ™

I had the privilege of joining .podcast on a walk around the trails in Little Langdale, where we turned up in matching colour scheme oufits. ๐Ÿคฃ๐ŸŒฟ

We chatted about many things, from nature connection, identity with sport, to my coaching and guiding work and many other topics that I have forgotten about! Thankyou Sukanya for having me on your wonderful, inspiring podcast. ๐Ÿ’š

Here's the link to listen - https://www.sukany4.com/s3e10-lauren-munroe-bennett-on-finding-stillness-while-moving-forward-noticing-more-worrying-less/

Would love to hear your thoughts if you get chance to listen (I'm too nervous to listen back right now๐Ÿ˜„). โœจ๏ธ

2025 was the year I took my stabilizers off and fully plunged into self employed life!

It's not been easy. There's been lots of stress, a lot of work, and at times I have struggled to switch off... But there's also been so many positive takeaways.

It's been wonderful taking people in the hills, guiding people in water, as well as coaching people to help them meet their goals. I have learnt more, developed my skills and made more connections. I'm excited for this year's projects and challenges! And a real focus for me is to find a way to switch off from work and make time for the things that fill my cup.

Thanks to every single person who has supported my little business this past year โœจ๏ธ.

It's time for a few weeks off social media... I'll be back after re charge and much needed break. ๐Ÿ’š

Hope you're all looking forward to what this year brings!

Two days of learning and refreshing my knowledge with and some other lovely like-minded humans over the weekend. ๐ŸŒฟ ๐Ÿ’š

Day 1 was all about bringing nature connection into outdoor leadership. Rather than feeling the pressure of bagging Wainwrights, getting to the top of a hill, or achieving something, the power of engaging with and really noticing what's around us in nature, and how it makes us feel, is so impactful. The research shows us how important nature connection is for our mental health. And from my previous work in outdoor youth work and with , the knock on effects this nature connection has on sense of ownership in the outdoors is crucial. We need a sense of connection with out outdoor spaces in order to look after them, as always beautifully says. ๐Ÿ’™

The second day was Practical Mental Health skills for outdoor leaders. This course is so needed in the outdoors space! Making sure we have the tools and skills to support individuals who may be struggling with their mental health in the outdoors is crucial. Physical First aid is mandatory - hopefully Mental Health First Aid will be some point soon? ๐Ÿง 

Thanks Mia for a wonderful 2 days and for making it happen. ๐Ÿ™

"Do you have fun?"
"Do you get to ride bikes"
"Are you proud?"

I'm still processing last weekend, but what's stuck with me are these questions from children in the audience after watching a little film about and hearing Toni-Ann share what they do. It was such a heartwarming special moment ๐Ÿ’ž and really reminded me of importance of sharing these stories. Children ask the BEST questions!

There were so many incredible moments, from live watercolor paintings ๐ŸŽจ by to writing postcards ๐Ÿ“ฎ with to Meeting Jura, one of the Mountain Rescue search dogs๐Ÿพ. Plus hearing Grace and Angela from share their UTMB adventures โ›ฐ๏ธ, to exploring importance of the outdoors for neurodivergent individuals with ๐Ÿง , and the incredible work of . ๐Ÿšฒ

I (somehow!) made it to Sunday this time before the tears flowed after hearing the powerful work by . Another reminder how powerful and vital youth led work is people! ๐Ÿงก

After a week of recovering, I'm still feeling super inspired by the amazing, wonderful people I had chance to connect with. It's such a huge privilege to present these Basecamp talks and although the imposter syndrome is still very much there, each year my confidence grows and I'm finding my flow with it. ๐ŸŽค๐Ÿ’™

Thanks for all your incredible mastermind work that goes into Basecamp programming, other presenters and who I look up to see how this hosting malarkey is done, plus the fabulous tech team and all the volunteers. Plus big thankyou to support crew Noodles as well as Drew who helped regulate me when I was v overstimulated and senses were overloaded!

Gearing up for this weekend! โ›ฐ๏ธ๐ŸŽคโœจ๏ธ

Really looking forward to chatting with some incredible people, hearing some inspiring and heartwarming stories, connecting with communities doing awesome things... and hopefully meeting more wonderful doggos ofcourse!!

It's quite cool being a teeny tiny cog in the buzz of this festival, in this small little market town where I went to school!

Hopefully see some of you there - I'll be at Basecamp most of the weekend. ๐Ÿค—

Connecting with nature, Citizen Science and riding bikes... just a few of the amazing opportunities young people experience as part of Trash Mob Academy at . ๐Ÿšฒ

It'a really powerful seeing the young people immersed in nature, learning about how single use pollution ends up on our trails and sharing different ideas of how we can overcome this issue. ๐Ÿ‘ฃ

๐ŸŒฑ Every single time, the young people share that they feel more connected to nature conpared to when they arrived.This work is invaluable.๐ŸŒฟ ๐Ÿ’š

This was my third year being involved in the project, and may have been my favourite one yet! It's pleasure to work with Trash Free Trails and to spend time in one of my favourite places at . I always leave the week feeling super inspired and ready for a lie down! โ›ฐ๏ธ๐Ÿ’›

Summer has been filled with lots of wonderful swim adventures. ๐ŸŠโ€โ™€๏ธ ๐Ÿ’ฆ i love being a small part of people reaching their swimming goals, whatever that may be.

Here's a few standouts:

๐ŸŠโ€โ™‚๏ธ I led a guided swim across the length of Coniston with the super speedy Rob, who was visiting from America! We covered the 5 and a bit miles in a 2 hours 45mins! Of course we had some very picturesque snack stops on route - which I was buzzing about as usual (see video for a laugh!).

๐Ÿ… Becky and I met a man walking lots of marathons with a tiger on his back before our swim across Bassenthwaite. Something you don't see every day! This was a lovely swim in silky water and calm conditions. Great prep for Becky's big challenge in September and even bigger adventures planned for 2026! ๐Ÿ’ฆ

๐Ÿ And I can't forget Caroline's awesome achievement, who swam all the way to Heron Island in Rydal, with a mixture of front crawl and breaststroke! This has been one of her goals for a while, and the conditions were beautiful for it! โ˜€๏ธ Caroline's frontcrawl has come on leaps and bounds over the last year after lots of hard work, benefiting from a multiple pronged approach and support with improving her stroke. It's really amazing to see! ๐Ÿ’™

If you fancy a swim in the warmer water temperatures๐ŸŒก or have any questions, please do reach out! We're only a few months away until we inch closer towards โ„๏ธ ๐ŸงŠ dipping season ๐Ÿคฉ.

What swim goals have you reached this year?

My Frog Blog is here! ๐Ÿธโœ๏ธ

Finally finished writing it. Only 2 months late ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿคฃ.

Here's how it starts "preparation was off to a great start: my friend's dog, Dan the collie... had just peed on my leg. A good luck charm maybe?!" ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ€

The past month has been filled with lots of fun walk, run and swim guiding in the lakes! โ›ฐ๏ธ

Joined the Lake District for swim guiding over the weekend. Luckily my legs had just about started working again after the Frog by that point... Met lots of awesome ppl that weekend! ๐ŸŠโ€โ™€๏ธ

Led a group reccee for upcoming Lakeland 55k route in July. We got lucky with a dry weather window! They were a wonderful bunch and really excited to hear how they all get on! ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ

Swam across lake coniston with our ruckrafts and finished with hot chocolate and cake at a cafe! โ˜•๏ธ

And got home yesterday after guiding an incredible group of women coached by , who are preparing for their Lakeland 50 adventure. We walked from Pooley Bridge to Kentmere on day 1 and then finished in Coniston on day 2. Can't wait to dot watch and cheer them on next month! โ›ฐ๏ธ

Feeling inspired by and grateful for the people I meet through this work! ๐Ÿ’›โœจ๏ธ
