Race Report: The London Triathlon

Back in August you may remember me telling you all about the London Triathlon that I was due to participate in. Wetsuit, bike and trainers at the ready I headed off to London to take part in the event for the second time (I previously took part in 2013), only this year my cardio-loving mum was joining me! Aged 50, she is super fit and healthy, running at least 3 times a week and swimming at weekends, I knew it was going to be stiff competition, although I hoped her reluctance to do weights would give me bit of an edge, we're both mega competitive so this turned into a real Mother vs Daughter event!

The Fashercise Launch: Boom Cycle @ Boxpark

The easiest way to find out what I'm up to is through twitter.. I'm an addict! The fitness community on there is amazing, inspirational and motivational to say the least. So when a fellow duo of fit bloggers turned their amazing blog into a fully functional e-commerce site (more here) who was I to turn down an offer to join them in celebration!

To celebrate the launch of Fashercise - an amazing online fit-fashion shopping destination - the girls held a one week pop up at Boxpark with a free class everyday for the week the pop up was open, which included Boxing, Yoga, Ravercise and Hula Hooping, it was hard to choose which event to attend.. but then I saw one of the classes was the much raved about Boom Cycle and was instantly sold!

 

teapigs Matcha Green Tea + Giveaway!!

Unless you live on a remote island somewhere.. you will of heard of Matcha Green Tea. Its a super powder that in one serving provides the equivalent of 15 cups of green tea, can boost metabolism and even claims to raise energy levels. Sound a bit too good to be true...? Yeh thats what I thought, so when i was given the opportunity to test drive my very own Matcha Powder by tasty tea masters teapigs I jumped at the chance!

Loving Lexi Sport

(Me in my Lexi Sport Anita Leggings!)

The fit-fashion market is really booming at the moment, something I am so glad of! Gone are the days of boring black gym leggings and over sized sweat inducing heavy cotton t-shirts and in are super cool prints, technical fabrics and smooth silhouettes!
