Fresh faced, excited and nervous: ready for the Tour of the Lake District in four days. Not sure we would have believed we would do this if you told us when we first met 3.5 years ago with babies on our backs in the Peak District 😍 #running #adventures #mumsontour

Dream of 17 years achieved! I ran a marathon on Saturday. On my 4th attempt. Two DNS because of injury and one weather. But this time, I pulled off a trail marathon that was actually 27.8 miles 🤣❤️ I had the absolute best time and I am forever amazed at what my body can do! #marathon (Pembroke)

I’m working on a grant I really care about and was tempted to work on my day off this week- but I made the right call! ❤️

Today is the first official day of our NIHR Three Schools Mental Programme project to develop a perinatal walking group for Muslim mothers. We will spend the next nine months codesigning the walking group with local parents and services in Sheffield. We will also design the tools to evaluate it.

Especially on a day like today, I’m grateful for the incredible fully outdoor nurseries in Sheffield! A whole day in the snow for my little one- how exciting ❤️ #forestschool #earlyyears

Casually checking the weather for my Peak District marathon on Saturday… 45mph winds, 6cm of snow and a -8cm wind chill?! Well. If that doesn’t change, that won’t be happening 😂🤪

Tips for staying sane during academic writing! Particularly relevant during a PhD! #academicsky @academic-chatter.bsky.social

Truly glorious day today at an academic writing retreat! Loved this winter crop growing seeds to feed the birds. Chapelgarth Writing Retreat in North Yorkshire is a fab place to get some work done… and a real treat for a relentlessly juggling everything mum to a feisty 3 year old! #academicsky
