Favourite distance

half marathon

Favourite race (and why)

Great Langdale Half because it's one of the most challenging (yet most scenic) road half marathons in the country.

My pet hate in running...

People who purposely drop litter/empty gel packets on the ground…..if you take it out with you, take it back! (Or find a bin!)

What I love most about running...

The achievement of getting from A to B under my own steam. No petrol, no engines, no electricity, just the power from my heart, lungs and legs.

My best piece of running advice...

Hard days hard, easy days easy.

Why you should follow me as a pacer...

My passion and enthusiasm for running literally pours out of my skin when I'm running (no honestly, that's not sweat….).

No one knows that I...

run in my sleep. Like, physically, literally run. My legs move forward and backward in running motion, much like a dog when it's dreaming. My boyfriend knows this (he filmed me doing it to prove it to me as I thought he was kidding!) but no one else does. Apart from you lot, now you know. Please keep it to yourselves 😉
