Its not always easy to self motivate. We’ve all been there, when its taken an exercise buddy to give us a swift boot out the door or we’ve done the pushing. 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
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.

April Challenge update – Netflix and Press ups
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”

Cambridge half marathon 2020
We might have mentioned it in January, today we did it! Cambridge half 2020 ✅ January was a busy month with lots of different activities, February was about getting the miles in (post skiing!) before the half. It was tough going this year, we both weren’t feeling on form in the lead up, but itContinue reading “Cambridge half marathon 2020”
Clip n climb
Clip ‘n Climb on a Friday night, sure why not! We both have tried this once before at a ThisGirlCan event and it was a fun alternative to the usual climbing wall. It’s pretty straight forward, all in the name really as our lovely instructor informed us during the safety brief. You just clip inContinue reading “Clip n climb”
