RUNNING — We are Girls in Sport blog

Born to Run – How running became part of my self-care toolkit - Jo Mallaber

We first came across Jo when she tagged us in her Instagram stories. She was about to do her first night open water swim and her story was funny and authentic. We contacted Jo and heard tales of her sporting pursuits :we loved how she had found exercise and how it was and is such a big part of her life. We wanted to share her story to inspire others and to demonstrate how sport can help us all. Thanks Jo for sharing your story.

Running and Mental Health for Girls

The first virtual London Marathon took place on 4 October 2020 and, I don’t know about you, but I found it really inspiring! No crowds lining the streets, no other runners to jostle with or buddy up with but runners all over the world showed grit and determination and finished the 26.2 miles.
