This past weekend was my first running race of 2016. At the very last minute I signed up, with my Dad to the Bookham 10k {all the cool people run with their Dad by the way, except we don’t actually run together as he’s faster than me!}. The race goes through the Surrey countryside of… Read more »
All Things Fitness: A New Leaf
Since leaving London in March I’ve managed to put on a lot of unwanted weight.

{image from Pinterest} I’ve been struggling for the last year or so with being healthy and seeing the above on Pinterest this week has really reminded me why I bothered to get healthier in the first place.
