Sexy Mudder Tougher!

Hi everyone, it’s me!

Welcome to our first fitness post! Alas, I cannot claim to have come up with the blog title, but rather this was a spectator sign up my Tough Mudder run in September and I thought it was brilliant!

If you missed the blog introduction, the name of the blog (Active Intellect; PhD in Motion; Cardio and Conservation… see where we’re going?) stems from my great love, and other profession - fitness.

I’ve been a qualified Fitness Instructor and Personal Trainer since 2017 - though I haven’t always worked in the fitness industry.

For the past 2 years, I have been having the BEST time as a class instructor, with my great love being Indoor Cycle.

I’m lucky enough to still be able to teach a few classes a week alongside my full time position as a Researcher. Fitness is so important to me, and already I’ve noticed the difference going to a class makes after a particularly stressful day.

Honestly, I’m not too sure where this blog will end up. But for right now, it’s just a way for me to express a passion for fitness, and share some of my experiences, as well as some of those close to me - many of whom I’ve met through my classes and who are such an inspiration! (Hyrox buddy I’m looking at you).

Until next time!

My Instagram is mostly for class updates but feel free to come and say hi!
