Red Cross Nepal flash flood funds
Help Leanne Garner raise money to support The British Red Cross Society
27/08/2026
I’m feeling helpless here 😢
Helpless to do anything in the aftermath of the horrific flash flood in Nepal, a country I know well and love passionately.
It’s people, culture and mountains have given me so much over the years.
The only thing I can do is to run a marathon and raise some money for the rescue efforts and support of the Red Cross there on the ground.
So I’ll be running the Purbeck Trail Marathon on 20 Sept.
Please donate whatever you can to my page.
Thank you so much 🙏

92 miles of the North Downs Way 🏃♀️
Amazing weekend!
Had no idea how far I’d get as it was so close to the WHW a few weeks back, but started with an open mind to just see what my body could do.
It was very hot!🔥🔥
Beautiful route, especially around St Martha’s, Box Hill, Reigate, Otford, and as always Centurion put on a well organised, super friendly event 🙂The volunteers were amazing.
Ran with so many lovely people, acts of kindness all around.
Love the trail running community so much ♥️
I missed the cut off at 92 miles, by 10 mins, so that was my race finished, but was super happy to get that far, in the heat, and with tired legs, and blisters on blisters!
Huge thanks to my hubby Tom for crewing me so well through day and night 💕and to Dave and Sian for cheering me on!💕
Recovery time now…

✨One of the reasons I love teaching clients on a 1:1 basis is that every session is designed around the individual in front of me.
✨Your body, your goals, your pace.
✨Sessions are personalised to help you achieve what matters most to you.
✨This week I have had runners, older clients (77 and 80 💕), clients with injuries and back pain, and a lady recovering from cancer.
✨With one-to-one support, they all receive individual guidance, tailored exercises, and a programme that helps them get the best possible results in a supportive, encouraging environment.
✨And for me? It’s very rewarding to make connections with people, help them explore what their bodies can do, and see them improve over time and achieve their goals 🤗 I LOVE my job 💕
If you’ve been thinking about starting Pilates or want a more personalised approach than a group class can offer, I’d love to help you reach your goals.

And have a fabtastic weekend ♥️

✨Firstly, the springs do not load the body the same way as weights.
As the springs lengthen and shorten, resistance changes. So the body is constantly adjusting and adapting.
✨This is what makes the pilates equipment different:
✨You are not just training muscles. You’re training the nervous system to organise the body under changing tension.
✨The ribs, pelvis, spine, hips, shoulders, breath, all have to coordinate at the same time to create stability while motion is happening and in turn the springs give the nervous system constant feedback - helping you understand where the tension is and how to respond.
✨This improved proprioception is one of the reasons people often leave a Pilates session feeling more connected to their bodies (as well as stronger and happier of course!
✨Over time, the springs also help to build end range control, and that matters because it’s not just about being flexible... it’s about having the strength and control to use that flexibility well.
✨Yay for springs 🤗

⛰️West Highland Way Race 2026 - what an adventure!⛰️
96 miles of beautiful loch shorelines, dense forests, rugged moors, rivers, waterfalls, wildlife and beautiful mountain landscapes.
Was a privilege to share the trail with some lovely runners and with the race volunteers - heroes in hi vis having our backs through day and night(s) and with my incredible support crew - hubby Tom, Pam Fiona Fordyce who saw to my every need at the checkpoints: filled my water, stuffed my pockets with food, blister proofed my feet, kept me warm on the moor, gave me a walnut whip for breakfast 🙂 and paced me in the later stages , giving me the motivation to push on when I was in a world of pain!
I would not have made that finish line without their love, support, and bossiness 😂Thank you so much guys - I am so very grateful! 🙏♥️
Recovery time now 👍
