fun, accessible workouts for women
Oh my goodness, I thought tonight would never arrive… but FINALLY I can show off Lazy Girl Fitness’ brand spankin’ new branding.
When I started this blog 15-ish months ago I really had no idea where it was going. I’ll be honest – a lot of the time I still don’t. But there are three things that I do know:…
So a week has passed since the 2014 City2Surf and I’m finally getting around to putting together my wrap-up. Please excuse me if it’s a little disjointed, I am full of Sudafed and Armaforce in a bid to rid myself of this annoying flu that seems to have made a home in my body……
Oh my god, I LOVE the City2Surf. It’s kind of like Christmas… only colder and with less ham and presents… and more running. Ok this is a terrible analogy, turns out it’s nothing like Christmas.

Today’s post is a serious one – and an inspirational one I hope. If you read nothing else today, I am asking that you take the time to read this, because it’s about mental health, and three friends of mine who are doing their best to make a difference.
Still got you? Excellent. Let me introduce you to three very special ladies then. Kezzy, Loz and Kell Priest are part of my extended Grafton running family and although I may not see them very often, they manage to inspire me from afar every day with their passion, dedication, kindness and generosity.

One year ago today I began this blog with a wrap up of Nike She Runs 2013… which incidentally I must have accidentally trashed at some point because I now can’t find it anywhere. #awkward. Anyway, in some ways I feel like I’ve been talking to you guys for waaay longer than that, and yet in many other ways I feel like it was only yesterday that I was sitting at Toko Sushi Train in Paddington with my friend (and now housemate) Kate, discussing how I was going to put together my first post. In celebration of the anniversary of that first Nike She Runs post I thought I’d do…. another Nike She Runs post! Look, I know I could have been a little more imaginative, but the dates just work. So here we go again Team…

It’s no secret that I’ve got a bit of a thing for Lululemon. And by ‘thing’ I mean I’d exchange my hypothetical firstborn child for a van full of Lulu clothing. Maybe even just a shopping trolley full if I’m honest. So while I may not be the biggest or bendiest yogi going around, when I found out that Lululemon was helping to bring Wanderlust to Sydney, I was in….
Ahhh sweet City2Surf. The race itself may be over for another year, but thankfully the glow of satisfaction that comes with competing in the world’s largest fun run is still with me – for a little while at least.

My very first adventure race
Adventure racing is to fitness what skinny jeans are to fashion. They’re fun, fabulous and oh-so-on-trend, but the jury’s still out on what we’ll think when we look back at photos of ourselves in them 10 years down the track. Whether they’re here to stay or simply another fitness fad is yet to be seen, but one thing I can tell you is that they’re a hell of a lot of fun!

It’s a little under 11 weeks until the 2013 Sun-Herald City2Surf, and people all over the country are starting to panic a little. Why did I enter? Is there enough time left to train? Do I really have to wear a Spiderman costume? Well folks, the answers to those, and many more questions, will be answered in today’s post.

I want to introduce you to a very special friend of mine who has kindly agreed to do a guest post this week. I met Kate Russell almost three years ago when I started leading an outdoor training session with her and some of her work colleagues. She is one of the most caring, friendly, motivated and just all-around awesome girls I’ve had the pleasure of meeting and I love her dearly. This year Ruski decided she wanted to take things up a notch and entered her first half marathon. I thought it would be amazing for her to give you a little insight into her preparation, dedication to training and the race itself – if you’ve ever thought about doing one yourself, this may be just the inspiration you need!
Support crew at the finish line!
