What is body image?🧍‍♀️🧍‍♂️
Body image is how we think and feel about ourselves physically and how we believe others see us. There are so many ways we can think about our body and the way we look. There might be some days when you like your body/parts of your body and other times when you struggle with how you look.
Welcome to May 🌻 This month we are focusing on the different types of eating disorders and body image…
Eating disorders are often invisible. They are mental illnesses, they don’t look a certain way and you do not have to be underweight to have an eating disorder.
After weeks of training, the magnificent 7 delivered in style this weekend.
With Stuart running in the Vienna marathon and Ian, Owen, Susan, Davide, Sean and Harvey running in the London marathon it was a super busy weekend for club runners.
Welcome to April’s edition 🌸
This month we are going to focus in on our mental Health, raising awareness and signposting you to where you can get professional help if you feel you need it đź’™
On Saturday 30th March it was World Bipolar day…
Everyone experiences changes in their mood, but bipolar disorder can cause these changes to feel distressing and it has a big impact on your life.
An Ultra Marathon is basically any distance over a Marathon, but your starting Ultra is 50km (that’s about 31 miles). So why would you want to run even further than a Marathon? Because it’s a completely different event.
This race report has been kindly sponsored by Howden Insurance.
I am sure that there are corny expressions about speed/pace not mattering so long as you complete the distance or enjoy the journey. Was it Confucius or some cheesy motivational quote I saw on Pinterest? Either way try telling this to the 11 members of the Farnham Town Running Club who achieved a PB at the Fleet Half Marathon. Quite an achievement bearing in mind that this number is almost half of the 23 members who started the race.
Running is a great leveller. It's a place where everyone faces their own physical and mental challenges and where anyone can thrive.
I took part in the Balwin Sport Jeppe 10km race with my older brother, Adam. I'm glad I chose the 10k race over the half marathon because I totally underestimated running at 5,700ft above sea level and the African heat – I also wasn’t quite ready for a half!
This week we are looking at the symptoms of stress. Lots of people think stress is rushing around trying to get things done or having loads on that to do list but it can come in all shapes and sizes and present itself in different ways.
