About me

Hey there and welcome to my blog!

If you love running, races and have an obsession with medals you’ll feel right at home here. If you’re just interested in race reviews around the South West England area, jump right in to the ‘Race Review’ section which I update regularly.

So, a little bit about me. In a nutshell, I’m an average-ish runner who is full of enthusiasm, encouragement, beginners advice and I’ll give you an insight into my (oftentimes hilarious) running journey (if it’s going to happen to anyone, it’s going to happen to me). My favourite distance is 10k but I also enjoy 5ks, trail running, half marathons and ‘fun runs’. I’ve been running on and off for around 15 years and ran my first ever race in 2012 (Bristol Half Marathon) but in 2017 I really caught the running bug again and did a total of 25 races! Phew!

Come join me on this rollercoaster ride they call running! If you want to share any races that you’ve loved recently please feel free to message me or come say hello on Instagram at @belle_runs_with_unicorns.

Running has taught me that I am capable of so much more than I ever imagined and I look forward to us sharing inspirational, heartwarming and hilarious running stories and tips with each other.
