I love it when I discover new outdoor adventures. So I am super happy to have stumbled across geocaching this week. I had heard of geocaching before and knew that it involved finding hidden objects but I had no idea how accessible it was. Having stumbled across the website last week I wanted to find…

Giving Something Back To Nottingham
As a blonde Essex girl with Welsh roots, I’m pretty much every joke in the book! I’m proud of all of my heritage but I also love the city in which I grew up. My parents moved from Essex to the countryside in Nottingham when I was two years old and I feel lucky to…
National Go Canoeing Week – A New Type of Challenge
National Go Canoeing Week takes place every May; encouraging people of all ages and abilities to get out on the water. I work for the Go Canoeing team at British Canoeing, so it would have been remiss of me to not jump in a boat. I didn’t want to just go out for a gentle…

Everyday Exercise – It Doesn’t Have To Hurt!
Exercise is a scary word for many people. It conjures up thoughts of pain and strain. Of having to do things you really don’t want to do. The truth is that exercise doesn’t have to be about breathlessness and aching muscles. If you get into the habit of everyday exercise you won’t even know you’re…
A Restless Sportswoman
I am a very restless sportswoman at the moment. Having finally succumbed to the dreaded, change of season cold, I am unimpressed. Optimistic Start Whenever I first start to feel ill I convince myself that, if I rest for a day, it will go away. So, last Monday, when my throat was a little sore, I…
In Search Of Fitness Inspiration
Baby it’s cold outside! Winter is definitely in the air and I can feel a cold trying to get a grip on my body. I have learnt the hard way not to try to out-run a cold. So, other than a cycle to the shops, I am taking it easy today. Physically anyway…mentally I am…
