A huge thank you to Sophie and Jade for their Welfare Wednesday takeovers in March!

This month we are focusing on moving more. The sun is shining and the clocks have sprung forward leaving us with so much more daylight, I always find this to be a natural mood booster and motivation to get out and move our bodies.

Welfare Wednesday!

Welcome back to Welfare Wednesday, it is our last week focused on disability in sport.

This week we are taking a look at an incredible Paralympian who is originally from the town we spend our Wednesday nights running around, Rachel Morris.

Welfare Wednesday!

Welcome back to your February edition of Welfare Wednesday for the next 3 weeks we are going to focus on disability in sport. 

7 weeks done – 11 weeks to go.

When the training kicks in there are always things that go well and things you know you should do more. I never drink enough water, do enough stretching and then there is my roller.

We have been in a relationship for about five years. It’s a bit of a love/hurt relationship to be honest. She tells me that she is good for me, but she always hurts me.

Time To Talk Day 2025

On the 6th February (tomorrow) marks ‘Time to Talk’ day which marks the biggest mental health conversation.

A new week, a new opportunity! This week we are taking a look and RED January.

This is a challenge which requires you to Run Every Day in January, whether that’s a mile or 10 miles it encourages people within the community to be active and improve their mental health, kicking off the year in a positive way.

My Journey to London. 35 days gone 90 to go.

Over the last 4 weeks we have been soaked and blown about like no other January I can remember.

After 26 days of training in January, which has included 15 runs and 147 KMs, the nerves are still there but the confidence has grown a little. Typically in 2024 I have been running 70/80 Kms a month so I am pleased to have pushed this up, without overtraining too quickly.

This week we are shining a light on Veganuary, This is another 31 day challenge which encourages you to follow a vegan lifestyle.

If you are already taking part, amazing work, you are doing brilliantly. If not, why not? It is never to late to start, you're just 31 days away from a new outlook or habit.
