Focus on women's group training. Swim Bike Run/walk. Coaching, PT, strength, health and fun focus REP's Registered Personal trainer.

Although not exclusively training and coaching women I do specialise in encouraging women of all ages and abilities to become active and stay active, experience the outdoors, set challenges, develop strength and fitness, have fun, enjoy the journey and share this with other fantastic women.

Another beautiful winters day and somehow the year is marching on and Sunday is the shortest day of 2026! If you are keen to celebrate join in the Polar Plunge at New Brighton beach 7.30am - 8.30am 😁

It can be a mission to keep your fitness up during winter but it is so worth it once we are back into spring and summer. Last night it was just stunning in and around Hagley Park. It is so cool to see so many people out and about. The fog was so cool around the sports grounds in Sth Hagley and the new paths and lighting make it a great run/walk option in the dark.

What can you do this weekend? Satirday's are easy - we are lucky to have so many 5k Park Run's in Christchurch. 8am start. Check the Park Run website for venues.

Our Saturday biking in on winter break but will be back in spring. If we are doing a mtb ride I will put it up on a Friday night. Come along and join in on Sunday. Dogs welcome on our walk/run. Text me on 027 271 9721 if you have any questions.

Sunday Walk/Run this week is at Bottle Lake Plantation in Burwood. 8.30am start from the car park by Coffee cart

Sunday swim 4.30pm at Tiaroa QEII meet poolside,

Happy Friday. Another glourious week of May done and dusted!
