We are on the watch for small things that can add up to behaviours that will harm you in the long run.

still not quite over this one 💕🥹

When you have a dream or idea that scares you, it can feel a lot easier just to stay in your comfort zone. And whilst yes, that might be easier short term, nothing happens if you do nothing and ultimately, it’s not that fun to look back and wonder what if.

Between us, at best we had a smidgen of an inkling of how to make @sheclaimsthetrails happen. But we knew we still wanted to try because if it worked, it might just turn out better than we’d ever even hoped. And it did!

So here’s to taking risks before we’re quite ready and to giving ourselves permission to try 🫶

now… who’s up for round two? 👀

P.s. and a huge huge thank you to @sportsshoes and @asics for backing us here too and for trusting us to make this idea come to life 💛👟

I spoke to over 100 women about essential trail running kit, route planning and safety on the trails 🏃‍♀️

Thank you for having me @sheclaimsthetrails 🫶🏼 I normally deliver my sessions, coaching and advice virtually. Online sessions, calls, content here. So to be in a room speaking in person was an amazing opportunity to connect with other women. 🤩

From those with trail experience under their belts to those just trying their first ever trail run that day thank you for sharing your time with me in my talks and out on the trails running together. I hope you had just as good of a day as I did because, wasn't it amazing?? 🥹

I'll be creating a webinar version of my talk too to be accessible to more and I can't wait to share it with you 🗣️

Can we do it all over again??? Really proud of you @runfreephysio and @juliette_dennyy , what an amazing first event, thank you for having me 🫶🏼

this is She Claims The Trails!! 🥳💛🎤🏃🏽‍♀️👩🏼‍🏫

We never set out to just take women running. The aim from the start was to create a day where women could be inspired by their peers, feel more confident running and learn tools and tips to help them achieve their goals in trail running, whether that’s to do their first event or to go all the way to the top.

On Sunday, that all came together with a panel talk from some of our favourite women across the industry, workshops on How to be a Healthy Runner and Route Planning & Safety, a motivational exercise which got the creative juices flowing and finally, our guided runs by our wonderful run leaders.

A huge thank you to our partners @sportsshoes and @asics for their support in making this whole day possible and a massive shoutout to our crew, speakers and run leaders who helped our runners have the absolute best experience 💛🫶

It feels like this is just the start… so if you want to see more (thinking new places, more workshops, more speakers?), let us know in the comments! ⬇️

Wow, wow, WOW! 🥹💕🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏿‍♀️🏃🏼‍♀️🌳

On Sunday we held our very first edition of She Claims The Trails and it was everything we’d dreamed of and so much more 💛

This incredible group of women joined us in Ashtead for a day of panel talks, guided workshops, lunch, educational sessions and guided runs all designed to help the feel empowered to get out on the trails and when we say the atmosphere was special, that doesn’t even come close.

Within five minutes, you couldn’t tell that over half these women had turned up alone (also shoutout them for being so brave and trusting us too! 🫶). Everyone was so friendly and got stuck in straight away, and by the time lunch came round the chats and vibes made it feel like this was a group of women who were already firm friends.

To our crew, speakers and run leaders, thank you. We couldn’t have done this without you, and your passion, knowledge and commitment made the experience for our runners so so special 💕

A massive thank you to our wonderful partners @sportsshoes and @asics for helping us make this day possible (and for kitting out our crew and runners!) and a huge thank you too to our friends at @scienceinsport @tenzing @maverickrace @thresholdtrailseries @strava @wearesungod @lifeskin and @eleat for spoiling our runners too!

And finally, thank you to our wonderful little community (that’s YOU! 🫵💛). Thank you for trusting us with your money, your time and your trail experiences and for turning up with such wonderful energy and enthusiasm!

We can’t wait to see you all again out on the trails and hopefully, this is just the start for She Claims The Trails 👀💕✨

proud of us @runfreephysio 🥹💛🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏼‍♀️🏃🏿‍♀️🌳

we always say that the hardest things is sometimes just to start and this was so true of @sheclaimsthetrails

We’d both had the idea for years but hadn’t backed ourselves to do it, and even when it got going there were SO many things we’ve had to figure out. What to call it, where to do it, how to do it.

The to do lists have felt endless at times but now we’re finally ready to welcome you all tomorrow and we cannot wait to see this all come to life!

Huge love to @runfreephysio for being the best person ever to share this journey with and a huge thank you to @sportsshoes and @asics for believing in us and helping make all this possible 💛💛💛

See you all in the morning!! 🥳🫶

What started as just an idea between two friends who love the trails… and now we’re just FOUR DAYS away from our SOLD OUT event! 🤯🥳

We have over 100 women (we know, how mad is that?!) coming together for a day celebrating everything it means to be a female runner on the trails 🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏼‍♀️🏃🏿‍♀️

To learn, run, walk, chat, ask questions, try new things and, most importantly, connect with an incredible community of women who share a love for getting outside 🌳

We created She Claims the Trails because we wanted more women to feel like the trails are a space for them. Whether you’re completely new to trail running or have been doing it for years, you belong here 💛

Seeing this little idea turn into a sold-out event is so unbelievable to both of us. Thanks to everyone who has trusted us to put on a great day and bought a ticket. And a huge thank you to @asics and @sportsshoes for supporting this dream too!

We cannot wait to see you all on Sunday! 💕

4 DAYS TO GO! ⏳

@runfreephysio with the patience of a saint 😅😂🫶

I already know that creating @sheclaimsthetrails with Soph will be up there with my proudest achievements, not just for the event on Sunday but for all the work that’s gone in behind the scenes for the last few months.

Hours and hours of calls, figuring out everything from food orders and ballon designs to setting up eventbrites and navigating insurance, it’s been a huge effort but it’s also been so much fun and sharing this experience with Soph has been so special 💛

We’ve got to shape this into the event we’ve dreamed of and it’s already so exciting seeing it come together. We can’t wait to finally see it come to life on Sunday! 🥳💕

REDs in pregnancy and postpartum 🤎

We teamed up with @runfreephysio to break it down - what it is, why pregnant and postpartum women are at higher risk, why it’s so easy to miss, and what to do about it.

Swipe. Save it. Share it with someone who needs to see it. 👇🏼

August Adventures 💌🌿⛰️👯‍♀️ 20 is a modern love story xox

I don’t know how time goes so fast but this month has been a wonderful mix of marathon training, spending time with my fav people and reminding myself that working hard is cool but if you don’t rest, you’re never your best 🤷🏻‍♀️

Highly recommend- a trip to the peaks, coming to a @redsflags event and going through your notes app 😅
