Feel Good Friday

Some achievements never lose their meaning.

I received this beautiful card marking the 30th anniversary of the Atlanta 1996 Olympic Games.

Being an Olympian wasn't just about one summer in 1996. It shaped who I am, taught me resilience, discipline and perseverance, and those lessons still guide me every day.

A lovely reminder that while medals and moments fade, the values stay with you forever.

Once an Olympian. Always an Olympian. ❤️🇬🇧

I'm still here 👋🏾

Progress is never linear.

Feel Good Friday 💛

Not every night's sleep is perfect.

Despite 23 restless moments, I'm up, recharged and ready to seize the day. ☀️

Focus on what you can control, show up anyway, and let consistency do the rest.

Have a great weekend! 💪

Throwback Thursday 🇬🇧🏃🏾‍♀️

I missed Olympic Day last week, so here's my throwback...

During lockdown, I dug out my Atlanta 1996 Team GB kit to see if I could still squeeze into it... and somehow, I did! 😅

Today, 1st July 2026, it's almost 30 years to the day since I wore this kit on the Olympic track in Atlanta.

The years have passed, but the lessons haven't.

Discipline. Resilience. Consistency.

Those same values still shape everything I do today, whether I'm training for HYROX, competing in lawn bowls, or helping clients move better, recover from injury and perform at their best.

Some memories never fade. ❤️

☀️ Saturday vibes
Hot, hot, hot… 🥵☀️

Picked up my first competitive win today (even if it was a friendly) against Pinner BC.

Teamwork makes the dream work 😁

Halfway through the year already... 😳

Whether 2026 is going exactly to plan or not, there's still plenty of time to move forward.

The latest Wellness Drop is now live, exploring why a mid-year reset might be exactly what you need.

Halfway There: Your Mid-Year Reset Where has this year gone already?

Motivation Monday

The difference a de-load week can make…

Same effort.
Very different outcome.

Last week: 🏃🏾‍♀️ 10.25km @ 6:51/km
This week: 🏃🏾‍♀️ 10.61km @ 6:37/km

Lower heart rate.
Better pace.
More efficient running.

Sometimes the biggest progress comes from backing off strategically, allowing the body to recover, absorb the training, and come back stronger.

Recovery isn’t weakness.
It’s part of the process.

Deload to reload 🔁

Feel Good Friday 😌

This week was all about the de-load.

Not every week needs to be full throttle. Sometimes progress comes from pulling back strategically so the body can absorb the work.

This week’s focus:
🏃🏾‍♀️ Maintain running quality without overload
💪🏾 Keep strength progressing
✊🏾 Improve grip consistency
❤️ Reinforce Zone 2 work
🥗 Reset nutrition habits

And of course… topped it all off with a little bowling.

Recovery is productive too.
Now we build again.

The May Wellness Drop is here.

May the force be with you… and in this case, it’s not strength — it’s precision

I’ve recently started playing bowls, and it’s not what I expected.

What looks simple is actually far more technical than you’d think.
