There’s something special about getting up on a Saturday morning and volunteering at parkrun.

You meet people from all over the country and sometimes all over the world. You hear their stories, why they started parkrun, what keeps them coming back, the goals they’re working towards and the milestones they’re celebrating.

You get so many smiles and thank yous, you become part of an amazing community, and you can make friends for life.

It’s a fantastic feeling knowing that you’re showing up and giving a little bit of your time so that others can enjoy an hour of their Saturday morning whether they’re running, jogging, walking or simply coming along to be part of the community.

Saturday mornings really are something special at parkrun.

If you’ve never volunteered before, give it a go you might love it!

Always a good feeling to keep my skills up to date.

Recently I successfully completed my Refresher First Aid Course, reinforcing the knowledge and practical skills needed to respond confidently in emergency situations.

As a fitness professional, client safety is always a priority. Whether it’s during personal training sessions, group classes, or running coaching, being prepared to act quickly and effectively is an important part of my role.

Continuous learning and professional development is something I value, and I’m committed to providing the highest standard of care and support to everyone I work with or come across.

Happy International Yoga Day!🧘🏻‍♀️🧘🏼‍♂️

Your running journey doesn’t happen overnight. It takes motivation, dedication, consistency, and learning how to balance life around it. Whether that’s early mornings, late nights, or fitting runs into a busy schedule.

Back in 2023, my first run was just over 2.5km. I didn’t know anything about pacing. I wondered why I was breathless, tired, and couldn’t run for very long. Looking back, I was running far too fast for someone just starting their running journey. It wasn’t perfect, but it was a start.

Fast forward to 2025, and I’ve completed a marathon🥇

The difference wasn’t talent. It was showing up, one run at a time, even on the days I didn’t feel like it. Small steps really do add up to big achievements.

If you’re at the beginning of your running journey, keep going. Don’t compare yourself to anyone else. The only person you need to be better than is the person you were yesterday.

It’s you vs you. Always!🏃🏻‍♀️💙

Something small to add to the list of certs this year! I have completed the Leadership: Practical Skills by Chris Croft, gaining practical knowledge in team leadership, motivation, delegation, communication, and effective management techniques.

Developing skills in leading teams with confidence, improving workplace productivity, and applying leadership strategies in real-world situations.

Excited to share that I’ve officially completed my certification in Lifestyle Medicine from RCSI! 🎓

I spent a lot of time last summer diving into how everyday habits like nutrition, movement, sleep,
stress, and connection can have such a powerful impact on our health and wellbeing.

I’m really looking forward to bringing what I’ve learned into my work and helping others create healthier and more sustainable lifestyles.

Grateful for the opportunity and everything I’ve learned along the way!
