I started running back in 2018 when my mental health wasnโ€™t its best, always been out solo running with nala my shepard. She takes me for a run actually!! Iโ€™ve also always been into sports Iโ€™ve rock climbed all round Europe. Maybe Iโ€™ll start running it next, who knowsโ€ฆ..

Then I picked up the courage to join a club this year in January to help me get back into things after having my daughter. My first run was with Jenni who made me feel so welcome!

Running just clears my mind and itโ€™s good for the soul.

What has been your favourite race or racing memory so far?

Iโ€™ve only done park runs and I did my first 10k (WEM) this summer. Iโ€™m so excited to get booking up more for 2024!
