ROLE MODEL

Lf

‘I have young kids, so my day usually

starts around 5.30am when they wake

up! I eat muesli with blueberries and milk

at home, and try to fit in a run or a gym

session before work when I can as I’ll feel

more energetic and focused for the rest

of the day. I love how I have the flexibility

with my work to drop my kids off at

school and pick them up. Lunch is a

hearty homemade soup that I take into

the office with me, plus some fruit. I tend

to batch-cook the kids’ food – they’re

enjoying curries at the moment, having

recently been to Sri Lanka on holiday.’

‘Once we’ve put the children to

bed, my husband and I will cook

something for ourselves. It’s a great

way to wind down from a busy day.

Favourites include stir-fried veg with

salmon, pasta with a bacon and tomato

sauce or risotto. I love catching up with

friends for a good meal, too.’

‘On weekends, I enjoy taking my

chocolate Labrador, Luna, for walks

with the family on one of the many trails

around Cranleigh, Surrey, where we live.’

‘I love fashion, and enjoy looking at

new trends and brands. I like seeing

the new designs, colours, fabrics and

creativity. I thought the Dior exhibit at

the V&A museum was amazing.’

‘Since having kids, it’s a little harder

to run as far as I used to! A steady goal

of mine is to train to be able to run a

half-marathon distance again, but for

now, I run 5Ks, do the elliptical and uphill

walking at the gym and a Barre or LBT

class on the weekend.’

‘I’m now working towards expanding
Tribe Sports’ range of recycled,
sustainable running apparel and
making more positive changes in the
business and for the wider community.’
