GRID - strategy, skill and diversity in sport

The Florida GRID League is extremely diverse, so much so that men and women, boys and girls, play on the same team. Many of its athletes identify as part of the LGBTQ+ community so, as you’ll see, it’s a very welcoming sports community.

This sport is Florida based but growing in popularity and reach with athletes joining the league from all over the US and other parts of the globe. The format sounds fantastic and really exciting - a way to take your training to a new level .

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.
