Miles run: 18 Have I run at least one mile a day? Yes Was I always in a better mood afterwards? Yes (disputed by boyfriend) Did I wave/say hello/thumbs up people? Sometimes. It turns out not many people venture out in the dark in -1 degree temperatures. However, those brave souls I have come acrossContinue reading “RED January Week 1”
Here we go again … RED Day one Inspired by the One Mile Happy walk I did during last years RED January (see video) this January I decide to commit to running at least one mile a day. A one mile happy run if you will. These are the rules I set for my self:Continue reading “RED Jan 2021”
I would love to say that I have been busy learning how to speak Japanese and bake bread sticks during lock down but in reality have been drinking too much and enjoying rubbish on Netflix (Tiger King and Selling Sunset are highlights of my binge watching). I salute anyone that has managed to be remotelyContinue reading “Strive Goes Live”

A group of us who often run together and have spent may hours motivating each other during half marathon training were discussing our lackContinue reading “Relay ribbons!”
Dear Creators of Impossibly Hard YouTube Workouts Having become a connoisseur of YouTube videos since social isolation I would like to take the opportunity to give some feedback. Some of your modifications are, in fact, still incredibly hard.

Having never been toContinue reading “YouTube Latin Dance Workout”
Keeva set my challenge as 15 press ups. I thought this was doomed to fail, however, I can now almost do 15 press ups. Now, I’m not saying I have mastered press ups, or the 12 I can do are in anyway impressive. I’m still now where near the floor and my arms feel asContinue reading “April Challenge update – Netflix and Press ups”
Keeva has been temporarily replaced… Now I am unable to run with my normal running buddies, I have recruited my very reluctant boyfriend to run with me. This has produced some mixed results.
