🇮🇹 ROME MARATHON 🏃‍♀️

This year I’m running the Rome Marathon, not just for the challenge, but for Pascal and Mary ❤️

I would love to help put both of them through private boarding school in Kenya for a whole year. Including their uniform, books and travel too so they can have one full year of education and stability.

If you’d like to help support them, I’d be so grateful. Every donation helps us get closer to my £855 target.

Thank you for any support you can give 🇮🇹💪🏼

💥 MID BACK PAIN 💥

That stiff, tight feeling between your shoulders isn’t always about posture.
Mid-back pain often comes down to how much movement and load your spine is actually exposed to day to day.

Here are a couple of exercises to relieve mid-back pain.

Save this if your mid back always feels tight!

💥 ACHILLES CAPACITY 💥

The Achilles tendon connects your calf muscles to your heel bone. Pain happens when the load placed on it exceeds what it’s prepared for.

If you want to protect your Achilles long-term, try these 👇🏼

1️⃣ Straight knee calf raises

2️⃣ Bent knee (soleus) calf raises

3️⃣ Calf pulses

4️⃣ Single-leg hops

Save this for later!

As a physio, these are 3 things I’d never do when I’m injured:

1. Push through pain

Pain is usually a sign something isn’t right. Trying to ignore it or push on regardless often turns a small issue into a bigger one, especially with tendons or bone stress. I’d rather pull things back slightly, change what I’m doing, and see how it settles.

2. Stop training completely

Unless I genuinely have to, I wouldn’t just stop everything. Most of the time there’s still a way to keep moving, maybe less volume, different exercises, or a bit of cross-training. Doing nothing often leaves people feeling worse, not better.

3. Comparing yourself to others

Someone else’s recovery timeline has nothing to do with yours. Different bodies, different loads, different history all affect recovery.

If you’re injured and not sure what to do, get in touch.

Most people don’t need to stop altogether, they just need a better plan.

Still pinching myself after our Japan trip 🇯🇵

From getting completely stuck into the food scene in Tokyo, to soaking up the culture and then skiing in Furano ❄️, it was an amazing experience.

Ready to get back into routine and back to doing what I genuinely love, helping you move better, feel stronger, and get back to the things you enjoy.

If you’ve been waiting to book in, I’m back now and ready to go 💪

How often should you book a sports massage? ⏱️

• Train for fitness or fun, once a month is usually spot on

• Training hard or competing, every 2 weeks keeps things moving well

There’s no one-size-fits-all though. Book in and we’ll chat through what works best for your body 💬

Short answer, yes. Strength training helps runners build power, improve efficiency, and stay injury-free. The key is doing it properly. Focus on the muscles that support your running, not random lifts that leave you tight, sore, or slower. With the right guidance, weights become a tool, not a risk 🏃‍♂️💪

Just a quick 2026 check-in from me! ⛷️
Hope everyone’s year is off to a great start! 😊

🏋🏼‍♀️ Training through pain isn’t toughness.
It’s your body asking you to listen.

That twitch, that sharp grab, that moment you try to shake it off, that’s not progress. That’s a warning.

If something doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t. Sort it early, move properly, and train in a way that actually moves you forward.
