Walking on Broken Glass

This weekend I voluntarily walked across broken glass. I know, what an idiot, right? It was part of an event for Domestic Violence charity Leeway which is the charity my Roller Derby League, the Norfolk Brawds are supporting. Other league members were around with collecting buckets, but somehow I ended up walking on glass with

Winter Fitness Goals Update……

Well, it’s Christmas Eve, and I’m looking forward to a few days of unashamed laziness, booze and unhealthy food. Though I might sneak in a run, because it at least makes me feel like I earned those crisps. Before the indulgence begins its time to take stock of where I am now, and how I

Winter Fitness Goals

Brrrr. It’s a bit nippy out. It’s really easy to let the exercise bit slide when it’s cold. I don’t know about you but hot chocolate spiked with brandy in front of the TV always feels more appealing when it’s dark and cold than going for a run. I try and remember that I’ve never
