Where does one start? Tina Turner, a global, adored icon is gone, and we are all, collectively, diminished by her death. This amazing woman was a force of life, a fabulous singer and a woman who inspired millions of people. Her beyond iconic song “Simply the best” has been on …
So, with exactly a month to go till the Mumbai Marathon – and no of course I am not freaking out…of course not…Not. At. All. So yes, with just a month to go, I am calming my nerves by tweaking my running playlist. As one does. (Well, this totally under-prepared …
Nothing like a looming event (the Mumbai Marathon) to focus the mind. Training, rest, nutrition, strength training, obvs, but also the all important race day playlist. Having not run a full for – ahem – a couple of years, my playlist needs dusting down and updating. (Bit like I do …

I am still working my way through my cyber-pal Susan John’s super running playlist, and learning a lot as I do so. Adding so many new songs to my own playlists. When I read “the theme music from Thor Ragnarok” on her list, I admit I was blank. This was …
Even though there are no races on my running calendar for the next God-knows-how-many months, I’m still running. And that means I’m always on the lookout for great music for my playlist. Thanks to my cyber-running friend Susan John, whose super list has already featured here in previous posts, I …
I can think of no better piece of music to close out 2021 than this one from my cyber-pal Susan John’s running playlist – the theme tune of Mission Impossible. 2021 has been a tough year for every single one of us, and we are entering 2022 with no clear …
