My First Post

I'm a working mum of two primary school age children. In my other life I work in IT in London. My occasional means of escape is running and fitness.

Don't think I'm some crazy buff woman with zero cellulite! I started running about 5 years ago when my youngest was still at home all day, and soon discovered that he thought it was great fun whizzing along in the buggy, and I could start working off some pregnancy weight!

I joined a club after meeting a local personal trainer through a mutual friend. On my first club run, it had snowed, but there were plenty of friendly offers to help me push the buggy through the snow!

I love running, but I'm not the kind of person who hides in black, unless I'm making a fashion statement. So I love to wear bright and colourful - and hopefully fashionable! - clothing for my workouts. However the function of my sports gear is also really important.

I hope to post some photos of my workout gear, and show that whatever your sport, or your figure, your clothing can be fun, fashionable and functional!
