GROW GRACEFULL Your monthly infusion of good stuff Hello Reader, I hope you're well and have had a great month of transitioning. I've been one very lucky girl again, making it out for the last 2 days of the World Champs. Wow! What a privilege. There was a mixed bag of results for my boyfriend's athletes: some better and some worse than expected. Sport, hey?! And a chance to practice what I preach to my mentees about overriding our negativity bias and reframing/learning from it all - if you...

I've been on the road again, delivering a technique workshop in Trafford (got another coming up in Huddersfield), 3 days of 'Wild Athletics' at Chatsworth House and now back to St Moritz working alongside Tokyo-bound athletes.

GROW GRACEFULL Your monthly infusion of good stuff Hello Reader, How is it nearly June?! Alas, I hope it's been a good month for you and you've enjoyed getting evermore stuck into the track/trail season (or whatever's your thing!). I've had a great month, including a trip out to St Moritz. If you've not been, it's a runner's must. And yes, the 'I'd like to run a camp out there one day' cogs are turning! But for now I've been busying myself with another camp... Despite people warning me off...
