Hi lovely people 🤍

A little life + business update from me — especially for my active women, runners, lifters, OCR athletes, and anyone juggling training with those annoying niggles.

For over a year I’ve been dealing with a stubborn injury. Between yoga teaching and racing the Spartan series last summer, I didn’t give it the rest it needed. I pushed hard, it paid off (2nd in the National Series + selected for the team again this year)… but the cost was big.

Because I pushed through, I’ve missed my favourite winter thing:
flouncing around the mountains as a fell runner.
A literal pain in the ass has meant no fast running, no hill work, and sitting has been… interesting.

But over the last month, after a run of lurgies, I finally committed to a proper rehab plan:
small, consistent mileage, strength work, activation, and eccentric loading to get the tendon repairing properly this time.

Moral of the story:
If you ignore your injuries for short‑term gratification or long‑term goals… you will pay for it.
And if mountain running feeds your soul like it does mine, you’ll feel it.

For my active females…
If you’re training hard, feeling niggles, or wanting to level up without breaking yourself, my health coaching for active women might be a great fit.

I help women build strength, resilience, and performance while managing or avoiding injuries — especially runners, OCR athletes, lifters, and busy women balancing life + training.

If you want to chat, you can book a free 15‑minute triage call via the link in my bio.

For my Shropshire people…
My mobile sports massage appointments (Shrewsbury + surrounding areas) are open, and new clients get 10% off their first session.
Codes are in my bio — just scroll to the massage section.

Thank you as always for the support 🤍
Josie

After an amazing time away with my sister over Christmas (my first holiday away that hasn't involved racing since 2021!), I am excited to let you know about my new venture! I am a qualified Massage therapist specialising in sports massage, and also offering remedial, maintenance massage.

I have decided to offer a mobile service, so that people can get home from work, or schedule in some time out in their day, and await my arrival!

My swanky new massage bed is lightweight and fits in small spaces, and my knowledge of the body, mind and nervous system all come into the treatment I provide.

Feel free to pop me a message if you have any questions about availability and service area. I have a booking system I've set up on my website so its easy for you to see my availability. I can be flexible if those times don't suit you, so let me know if you'd like to schedule a massage in!

My last client, a week after their massage, said something along the lines of "after you did my calves, I completely forgot they had been troubling me!" Nice feedback to boost my confidence!

I offer 90 minute in-depth consultations to look at weaknesses, tightness and muscle imbalance. I also offer 60 and 45 minute sessions for maintenance. If you work at a desk, a quick 45 minute upper body massage can help with the aches and pains that come from sitting in the same position for a while! And I can even pop over in your lunch break.

Head over to the links in my bio to have a look at what I offer.

Thanks!

Josie

I'm really excited to be starting some new classes in Shrewsbury this January!

I have practiced yoga in Jenna's beautiful space for years, and have been given the opportunity to teach a strength and yoga class weekly in this beautiful space.

Warrior Strength Circuits is a class designed to give you the skill and confidence to move with strength. Helping posture, increasing bone density, and giving you the strength to maintain and grow in all the physical activities you love to do.

Lunar Restorative Yoga is a class designed to allow you to sink into the natural cycle of the moon. This week, we are in the aftermath of a full moon that will have moved into Libra on Friday. The class will be themed - Equilibrium & Letting Go. As we move through the moon cycle, you will learn how to curate your life and practice around the energy that it brings.

Book on Jenna's Website, which I will link in the comments.

Any questions, my DMs are open!
