"Having my baby a couple of years ago changed everything again. I struggled deeply with PPA, depression, and health problems that left me feeling completely lost.I couldn't find the balance. It took me 7 to 8 months just to feel able to move consistently again. But when I did, the transformation was instant.I still find it really difficult to ‘find time’ to exercise in the house juggling baby and house work and work.But I knew my mental health depended on it and I had to stop making excuses and started buggy running. It was the only way to prioritise myself and I figured if I was out for a pram walk with baby, I might as well run." - Zahra#PostPartum #MentalHealth #ThisGirlCan by @thisgirlcanuk

"I don't run as much any more but that experience has stayed with me and showed me I can do anything I set my mind to. And that just because I don't fit the typical mould of how I think a sporty person should look, doesn't mean I can't enjoy sports." - Natasha#SUP #Paddling #ThisGirlCan by @thisgirlcanuk

Starting with just 10 minutes, you can change how you feel about your day.Just ten minutes of movement can boost your:· energy· sleep,· confidence,· mood.And you? You deserve it all. My running journey has taught me that consistency > perfection.Showing up however you can is far better than not showing up at all... Because I know that small steps today can pave the way for BIG results tomorrow. #Ad #ThisMumCan #ThisGirlCan #ActiveMum by @thisgirlcanuk
