After a wonderful start to my running career, this year has ended badly. I haven’t been running once since last weeks’ blog and I hang my head in shame as I admit it. I have however been running around like a mad woman, getting the Chez Coyle ready for Christmas...Read More >I'm a self-confessed exercisephobe

Does anyone else find that the first five minutes of a run, no matter how far you’re going, really hard?Read More >Fox on the run

I ran for 25 minutes this week. Twice. Who’d have thought!!? Don’t get me wrong, I felt like my lungs were going to burst and that I was wading through mud towards the end...Read More >Food planning

I have to admit the idea of going running again this week was about as appealing as standing next to Kelly Brook in a swimsuit...Read More >Fitness Fiesta

Following the response I’ve had from readers of my blog, especially on Twitter, it seems there are lots of mums out there in the same situation as me – trying to juggle housework, being a mum, losing weight and having a social life...Read More >Mum on the run
