Monday motivation 🏃🏼‍♀️🏃🏼‍♀️🏃🏼‍♀️.

I entered several races over the weekend in a fit of enthusiasm for my Boston marathon training, 20 milers seem such a long way that I need the company (who I am kidding, they are a long way!)

I do a barre class once or twice a week at Fitique in Alresford with the amazing Naomi. It is a perfect compliment to my running and a great workout

So proud of Toby’s Team, including Sarah and Tiggy who run with us and used our sessions to get fit for this amazing challenge.

A TEAM of seven Hampshire mums have raised more than £100,000 by scaling the height of Everest in just four days – all in aid of tackling brain…

This morning we were thinking of the amazing Everest in the Alps teams ski touring the height of Everest in -20 temperatures this week. Today is day 2 of 4. They had ascended 500m by 9am. We managed 114m in our group run, nothing like their amazing achievement.

Good luck teams.

Sarah and Tiggy from Toby’s Team have bern training with us since September, their dedication, fitness, commitment and smiles are an inspiration to us all.

Good luck.

I am delighted to be helping the Everest in the Alps teams with endurance training advice.

Two of the Hampshire Ladies team have joined my Wednesday Run Group, so this week we did a continuous hill session to build strength, endurance and fitness.

Do follow Everest in the Alps to watch the teams as they train towards the challenge at the end of February 2018 of ski touring the height of Everest over 4 days in the Alps. All to raise money and awareness for the Brain Tumour Charity.

Welcome back to the Autumn term. We started this morning with 6 x 3 mins at threshold pace with roughly 90 seconds recovery (depending on how much chatting I was doing!).
If you'd like to join us on Wednesdays at 8.30, email me [email protected]
Happy running
