Meet Lisa, one of the amazing runners sharing the Robin Hood start line next week! 🏃‍♀️

At 34, Lisa is taking on the Robin Hood Half Marathon while living with Multiple Sclerosis and continuing her recovery from a shattered kneecap.

MS has changed what everyday life looks like for Lisa, but she’s determined to keep moving, stay strong and do the things she loves.

She’ll be running to raise money for charity and we’re incredibly proud to have her joining us on the start line.

Good luck, Lisa, we’ll be cheering you all the way!

Training Tip Tuesday from our training app partner; Coopah Running

Trust the taper. When the time comes, maintain the frequency of runs, but drop off the intensity. Your body may feel some aches and pains, don't panic, it's absorbing all the hard work you've put in, trust it, and you'll arrive at the start line feeling fresh.

A little plea for race day!

If you have some spare time on Sunday 27 September, our charity partners would LOVE your help at their cheer stations!

Come along, make some noise, cheer on the runners and help create the incredible atmosphere that makes the Robin Hood Half Marathon so special.

It’s a great way to be part of race day while supporting the charities who do so much for our community.
