One of the health switches I made was by changing to Greek Yogurt. Firstly I still eat far too much sugar, so have a very sweet tooth. When I first made the modification to my diet the only yogurts I was eating was the flavoured ones. This was quite the challenge. This led me to … Read more
We headed to Perry Hall parkrun for my 50th event this year. Having to needing to be back for work I needed to look at my NENDY list. Plus it was also their 11th anniversary we headed there.

It was quite a late decision to attend Marlborough Common parkrun for the tu-tu weekend! That is because it was the 22nd of the month!! See the thing is I didn’t have work, and now our son who works Saturdays can’t go at all (he’s switched to the morning shift) it meant we weren’t as … Read more
We headed to Ludlow Parkrun as I needed to be in Hereford for work and it was the NENDY to there. Offering up my time to volunteer as a park walker so that I wasn’t too tired for the 12 hr shift ahead. Little did I know that I wouldn’t actually be getting back to … Read more

We headed to Woodgate Valley Country parkrun despite the fact that we knew the founder of parkrun, Paul Sinton-Hewitt was going to be at Cirencester parkrun. There were two reasons for this. One being that without going abroad for yet another extra day I wouldn’t get my Cowell by the end of the year. Secondly, … Read more
We headed to Banbury parkrun because it was one of our NENDYS and we had not had a lot of sleep following my adventures at Mauerweg Parkrun the previous day. Storm Amy had also cancelled a lot but that only affected me by delaying my flight home – meaning I didn’t get back until 2am. … Read more
