September Injection of GRACE!


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 choose to.

3 days 'surfing' on the Izu Peninsula afterwards was also the perfect tonic. No time to dwell when you're getting tumbled in the waves!🏄‍♀😅

And now back to it! Next up is my Peak Technique Retreat (Oct 24th-26th). We recced some new running routes there yesterday😍, and I've been working away on some fun and informative activities for it. There's a 1 or 3 day option. See below for more details and a (crazy) time-sensitive discount code!

Or if you'd like me to come to you with a bespoke workshop for your club/group, like the wonderful Marsden Racers 2 weeks ago, let me know!

I also started with a new cohort on my Grow programme (S&C and mentoring for youth athletes to grow inner and outer strength). I now just have 2 more spaces available. Get in touch if you'd like to grab one before it fills up.

As ever, read on for more on up-coming events and hidden discounts🤫.

Go Gracefully,

I loved this article about Sebastian Sawe with details of his bumpy road to the top and some insights into his training. I know his coach Claudio very well having trained with his group back in the day. On Camp Kenya last year, he gave us the absolute honour of meeting and mingling with his current crop of top athletes (including Emmanuel Wanyonyi amongst many others). This year he is allowing us to STAY at his training camp! See below for more details! Incidentally the article is written by an incredible guy who built a children's hospital out there that we visit as part of the trip.

This month on the ​Grow: Stronger programme​, we did an in-depth goal setting workshop, looked at The Art of a Comeback and An Alternative Approach to Athletics. DM me if you'd like the resources.

Holes In The Sky - M83 and HAIM

This track somehow manages to be both relaxing and rousing. Fantastic accompaniment to an easy run or stretch.

Lack of strength and conditioning is one of the top 3 reasons people get injured (together with progressing too quickly and not recovering enough). Tick that 💪 box with my 20min, running-specific workouts. Option 2 is for dodgy knees (or if you're tired).

This month we have circuits and core (plus warm-up and stretch)

Any young athletes starting out with S&C, ​check out our online weekly sessions​ with live coaching to guide you towards growing strong, health foundations.

Peak Technique Retreat
24 - 26 October.

The breathtaking trails around Hartington Hall provide the most stunning location as we dive deep into your form. You will come away with a solid plan for how to iron out your unique quirks and create a strong foundation for consistent running and PBs!

From just £240 for the weekend or £60 for the day, this includes accommodation, meals, training costs, a goodie bag (worth £20) and a 1:1 (weekenders only).

Becky is an inspirational coach and trainer, with clear instructions, a deep understanding of how the body works, and excellent insights into what individual bodies and minds need to do to make progress. Thoroughly enjoyed every part of her training weekend, and her advice has already made a big difference to the efficiency of my running. Highly recommended!

Camp Kenya 2026
21 Feb - 7 March and 7 - 21 March

The best place in the world to train? Probably. This highly personalised camp is suitable for any running enthusiast or coach. I'll be there to help create a bespoke plan to improve your running during and beyond the camp. Plus it's hard to overstate what an utter privilege it is to spend time at Claudio's camp with him and his athletes.

But it's not just about the running. Charity work and R&R also feature heavily, truly topping you up.

I'm about to launch social campaign, so if you're interested in claiming one of the 5 remaining spots with 10% off (code GR10), I recommend you act now. Book in a call or
