Do I care what I look like when I run?

Honestly… sometimes, yes.

I think a lot of women do.

I speak to so many women who want to run but feel self-conscious about:

• being slow
• their body moving
• their red face
• what other people might think

But the truth is… most runners are just thinking about their own breathing, their own legs, or when the run will end 😅

Running doesn’t have to look pretty.
It just has to feel good.

And women deserve to feel confident moving their bodies.

I’m curious — have you ever felt self-conscious running?

I talk a lot about helping women feel confident running again — especially after having babies.

No gatekeeping here.

There is no competition.

If you tell me my skin looks good, I’ll tell you what’s on it.
If you ask what supplements I take, I’ll send you the list.
If you want to know how I fuel my runs, I’ll happily overshare.
If you ask about my trainers or my running plan… you’ll probably get more information than you bargained for.

I genuinely believe there’s enough space for everyone.

Women supporting women.
Sharing knowledge.
Helping each other get stronger, healthier and more confident.

So if you ever want to know anything — about running, physio, pelvic health, recovery, fueling, supplements… just ask.

Fair warning though…
I might give you too much information 😅

What’s something you wish people gatekept less?

Endometriosis affects 1 in 10 women — yet many spend years trying to get answers.

March is Endometriosis Awareness Month, so I wanted to share some information about symptoms and how pelvic health physiotherapy can help manage some of the secondary effects.

Happy International Women’s Day 💜

I feel incredibly lucky that my job is helping women feel stronger and more confident in their bodies.

Whether it's during pregnancy, after birth, or managing pelvic health symptoms, every woman deserves to feel heard, supported and empowered.

Here’s to strong women — and the strong women who support them.

🌻 March is Endometriosis Awareness Month

Endometriosis affects around 1 in 10 women.

But the reality is that many people spend years searching for answers before getting a diagnosis.

Symptoms can include:
• painful periods
• pelvic pain
• pain with s*x
• bladder or bowel symptoms
• fatigue
• difficulty getting pregnant

And it’s important to know that pain is not “just part of being a woman.”

While physiotherapy cannot treat the endometriosis itself, it can help manage many of the secondary symptoms, including:
✔ pelvic floor tension
✔ bladder symptoms
✔ bowel dysfunction
✔ pain with s*x
✔ abdominal and scar tightness

If you’re struggling with pelvic pain and feel like no one is listening, please know that support exists and you deserve to be heard.

Marathon training update 🏃🏼‍♀️

Dartford Half: 1:39.

No shin pain (which honestly feels like a bigger win than the time 🙏🏼)…
But my legs felt heavy for most of it. Not awful. Not injured. Just… heavy.

And I think that’s the reality of marathon training that people don’t talk about enough.

It’s running on tired legs.
It’s long runs that take over your Sunday.
It’s planning life around miles.
It’s going to bed thinking about pace and waking up thinking about pace.

It’s juggling three boys, a business, patients, admin, strength sessions, and trying to be a present human in the middle of it all.

It’s the mental load as much as the physical one.

Some weeks you feel unstoppable.
Some weeks you convince yourself you’re underprepared.
Some weeks a tiny ni**le spirals into “what if I can’t start?”

Honestly? Massive respect to anyone who has done this more than once. I get it now. The discipline. The resilience. The obsession. The doubt.

This block has pushed me further than a half marathon ever has — not just in distance, but in headspace.

Still learning. Still adapting. Still showing up.

And quietly proud of 1:39 on heavy legs.

Onwards. 💛

A love letter to my body.

❤ and share is this resonates with you x

If you love running, strength training isn’t optional — it’s part of your training.

This is one of the biggest game-changers I see for runners who keep getting ni**les.

So many women tell me they thought these were just part of motherhood — something to accept and move on from.

The truth? They’re common, but they’re not something you have to live with.

Pelvic health support can make a huge difference, even years after having children.

Which one surprised you the most?
Or did you think all of them were normal?

Feel free to comment or DM — you’re not alone.

Back at the clinic after a really lovely Christmas, and wow… the return to routine has been a bit of a shock for all of us.
Cold, dark mornings aren’t helping, and the kids are definitely not enjoying being back at school.

Life feels busy in that full-on January way — work, ferrying children around, and a few weeks into marathon training now so the mileage is creeping up. Safe to say I’m feeling tired.

I keep reminding myself that this time of year the body wants to hibernate, so it’s okay to feel slower, heavier, and a bit flat. We’re not meant to be firing on all cylinders in the depths of winter.

The lighter days are coming though — the evenings will slowly start stretching out over the next couple of months, even if it doesn’t feel like it yet.
For now, taking it one week at a time feels enough.

If you’re feeling the same, you’re definitely not alone 🤍
