Running grounds me. It’s my head clear and my endorphin rush. It’s an instant way to connect with other people and places. Running has brought me adventure and has allowed me to see places I never would’ve seen. It’s also brought some of the most important people into my life. The friendships I have built through running have been my foundations through the toughest of times.

 

It’s an absolute pleasure to be a Best Athletics Coach. The decision to join this vibrant group, which instantly felt like a gathering of lifelong friends, stands out as one of my best choices.

 

This experience isn’t unique to me, and while the results speak for themselves, anyone who is part of the club can also vouch for the unending support on the sidelines; be it at Battersea Park or Valencia Marathon, the advice on the side of track, and the laughs in The Latchmere during beer boat races. The community-focus, holistic nature of the group really is what sets it apart from anything else I've experienced in running.

 

Growing up in Zimbabwe and having mainly focused on team sports, I only really started running 7 years ago. To say I “caught the bug” is probably an understatement.

Since joining Best Athletics, I have achieved PBs over every distance. I have qualified for Championship and elite entries to marathons and races across the world – from London to Chicago, via Manchester and Harare. My achievements include being ranked second in the U23 British Women’s Marathon in 2021, and consistently breaking into the top-10 over other distances, on Power of 10.

 

The correct fuelling and nutrition are also topics I am very passionate about. . My fervour for correct fuelling extends beyond a mere interest—it's a cornerstone of my athletic philosophy. The intricacies of nutrition and its profound impact on performance have become a driving force in my journey. This led me towards my master’s degree in Sport and Exercise Nutrition from Loughborough University where I focused my dissertation on investigating the effects of short-term low energy availability on markers of cardiovascular health in women.

 

The combination of both my love for the sport and nutrition are why I have decided to begin my journey into coaching. No matter your goals, I am here to help you achieve these in the happiest and healthiest way possible. So whether you're looking to tackle your first marathon, complete a 5k, coming back from injury or want advice on nutrition, I will be able to provide a tailored plan for your every need.
