I think I started about 10 books last year… and never finished one 🤦🏾‍♀️ I’m not out here saying much has changed for this year, but I’m close to finishing this one and I’ve only had it a few days 🤪Back in 2021, I almost jumped on the constant glucose monitor (GCM) hype, but then I was put off reading stories personal to those who have family members with diabetes.Having started delving into it more though, I’ve realised that there’s so much you can do before you get diabetes 👀 …and it’s not just genetics that plays a part (there is diabetes in my family history), but lifestyle factors might be an even bigger determinant 🤯I’ve not finished the whole book, but it was super easy to implement some of the hacks from day 1… because yes, I had a bottle of apple cider vinegar in the back of my kitchen cupboards (bet you do too?!) and I had a stash of green veg in my fridge which typically, gets thrown out as I get too lazy to cook it. I know.I’ve been working with a Women’s Health Nutritional Therapist over the past few months and this book came as a recommended read as some of my recent health issues may be linked to gut health and / or blood sugar imbalances.While I won’t be wearing a CGM to help me ‘perform better’ as an athlete, I will be trying one for a couple of weeks to support me to learn about the relationship my body has with glucose right now and how I can improve this 💥Check out the book where they sell books or @glucosegoddess for loadsa tips and advice 🙌🏾#hormones #nutrition #hormonehealth #hormonebalance #hormoneimbalance #hormonalimbalance #healthylifestyle #womenarenotsmallmen #books #reading #bookreel #bookstagram #booksbooksbooks #miraclemorning #bookrecommendations #nonfictionbooks #nonfiction #currentread

Well, Happy New Year Everyone 🎉🤩 …a bit late, maybe, but after saying goodbye to 2022 and welcoming in 2023, I took some time to reflect on the things I’m leaving behind, excited about the things I’m continuing and mulling over what I’d like to have/do/be more of 🗓👉🏾 SWIPE to see my [dynamic and to be changed as needed] listLeaving behind: The uncertainty and challenges of the past year, stress and negativity.Bringing in: A renewed sense of hope and determination, a positive mindset and the willingness to take on new opportunities and adventures. 🌟I’m also super keen to continue making space for healthy routines and new habits in my life.Continuing with: Regular exercise with a community / social element (… our Saturday Zwift meet-ups are back and honestly, they’re the highlight of my Saturday mornings 😺), good eating habits and prioritising self-careBringing in: advocating for own health and wellbeing… actively.What are you leaving behind and bringing in with the new year? My only goal, as always, is to make 2023 the best yet!🥳#Newyear #Newbeginning #Leavingbehind #Bringingin #hope #motivation #selfcare#cyclingcommunity #thisgirlcanride #thisgirlcan #thisgirlcanessex #livcyclinguk #livcommitted #ukcyclechat #womenscycling @livcyclinguk #WomenInCycling #WomenCyclingCommunity #CyclingUK #livcycling #livavail #wahooligan #indoorcycling #turbotrainer #cyclinglife #cyclingblogger #representationmatters #zwiftcycling #zwifting #gozwift

𝕊𝕠𝕞𝕖𝕥𝕚𝕞𝕖𝕤, 𝕤𝕠𝕞𝕖 𝕥𝕙𝕚𝕟𝕘𝕤 𝕛𝕦𝕤𝕥 𝕗𝕖𝕖𝕝 𝕤𝕠 𝕤𝕖𝕣𝕖𝕟𝕕𝕚𝕡𝕚𝕥𝕠𝕦𝕤 ✨I watched some content here on IG, where a guy skirted around the issue of PERIODS making them sound like some sort of sickness that those with periods suffer each month 👀Then @thewell_hq launched their #SayPeriod campaign… which I had no qualms about; I pledge to call it what it is. 
🅿🅴🆁🅸🅾🅳.Because, as long as we skirt around the language, we’ll lack body literacy.Then, Le’Nise from @periodstorypod got in touch asking if I’d like to be a guest on the podcast - that was one of the easiest yes’ of 2022 for me 🤪In Episode 59, I chat with Le’Nise about my experience of being on the pill from aged 13 and what I did to learn about my body and menstrual cycle after coming off the pill. We also dive into the effects that taking anti-inflammatories for period pain had on my stomach, how menstrual cycle awareness and being in tune with my body helped me to complete a half-marathon right before my period started and of course, the story of my first period.👉🏾 scroll to the bottom of my 🔗 bio to read my blog where I shared the full episode and a bit more of my period story (otherwise search Period Story Podcast Feature on my site)𝘼𝙡𝙨𝙤 𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙡𝙤𝙜:📚 WUKA Period Pants Review: No Holds Barred📚 5 Best Yoga Poses For Periods📚 Plastic Free Periods & Where To Start#periodstory #menstrualhealth #firstperiodstory #periodsarenormal #womenarenotsmallmen #keepitsimpelle #ellelinton #womenshealth #timeofthemonth #thisgirlcan #activeperiods #healthyperiods #periodpain @wukawear @eatlovemove

✨ AND WITH THAT, MY SEASON WITH AR LDN COMES TO AN END… ✨My Mum always told me to leave a job better than when I started, and I think I accomplished that over the [almost] one year I spent with adidas Runners LDN as coach 🙌🏾🏃🏾‍♀️ I successfully gained my LiRF (leadership in running fitness) qualification and I’m planning on going back for the CiRF too🏃🏾‍♀️ the experience I got working with such an epic bunch of coaches and on projects like Greenhouse Sports is priceless🏃🏾‍♀️ and of course, lots of great memories from moments in the communitypictures: (1) Jonty and I doing the aR Signature session briefing outside the Battersea store (2) me at the aR LDN wrap up xmas party (3) me actually running fast (IYKYK)If I’d known my last session was my last session, I for sure would’ve said 𝕋𝕙𝕒𝕟𝕜 𝕐𝕠𝕦 in person 🥰 …but, there is absolutely no doubt I will see y’all around 😉 and I can’t wait to see what y’all achieve in 2023 and beyond 💥#adidasrunnersldn #runnerscommunity #londonrunners #womensrunning#adidasrunning #adidasrunners #runningcoach #londonrunning #runninglife #runningcommunity #Running #Runners #diversewerun

Just this week I was chatting to @sherunsthiscoaching (my running coach / mentor) about how a good runner doesn’t always make a good coach, and a good coach doesn’t always make a good runner, so this is just a lil reminder for y’allAnd yes, coaches have their own coaches too 🤪 I put all my energy into supporting my clients (running, cycling, group exercise and personal training) so outsourcing my own training is a welcome relief.#marathontraining #halfmarathontraining #adidasrunnersLDN #diversewerun #adidasrunning #thisgirlcanessex #thisgirlcan #thisgirlcanrun #Letsruntogether #halfmarathon #couchto5kgraduate #fitnessjourney #runstrong #buildingabase #ukrunners #strongerfaster #womensrunninguk #runningblogger #consistencyiskey #ukrunchat #runwithus #runningcommunity #runnerscommunity #londonrunning #runninglife #Running

🏆 MY YEAR IN SPORT 🏆Had the pleasure of joining @strava last week for a breakfast to launch the 2022 Year In Sport, which was so insightful to see the bigger picture that the aggregated data provides.But now, we get the chance to look at the data on an individual level, to celebrate what we’ve achieved over the past (nearly) 365 days 🥰Although this year, physically, I’ve not felt like myself, I’ve lived by the words - ✨ JUST SHOW UP ✨and I’m certain I did that much. I’ve shared a few of my stats in these slides… the ones that mean the most; how often I showed up, and some key moments captured in pictures.I really had to learn what it feels and looks like to show up for myself though; and I’m praying that learning to do so, means I will at least get to the end of 2023 feeling the way I’ve expected to feel the last 3 years, even if that’s not how I will start 2023.Throughout everything though, movement and the connection through community has been paramount. A special shout-out to all those a part of my ‘keep it simpElle’ community - classes, indoor rides, local runs, personal training, reading my blog, supporting my content here on insta… it means the world 🙌🏾2023… WE’RE COMING FOR YOU!! 💥#YearInSport #runnerscommunity #londonrunners #womensrunning #thisgirlcan #runningcoach #londonrunning #buildingabase #runninglife #runningcommunity #getoutside #Running #Runners #ukrunchat #diversewerun #strava #thisgirlcanride #cyclingculture #OwnTheRide #ukcycling #thisgirlcanessex #womenscycling #WomenInCycling #WomenCyclingCommunity #cyclinglife #cyclingblogger #100womenincycling #representationmatters #womensupportingwomen
