THIS IS
PLAY Running
because RUNNING = PLAY TIME.
Hi, I’m Claire. I'm 48, a proud mum of two boys aged 11 and 8, and a Bristol native. Running is my passion, and after years of fitting it around a busy life, I know how hard it can be to get started – and even harder to keep going.
That’s why I created this space: a no-pressure, practical resource to help busy women find their way into running. Whether you're juggling work, kids, or just life in general, I share real-life advice, training tips, and motivation to make running feel doable (and maybe even fun!).
From beginner-friendly guides to race day strategies, strength tips to mindset shifts, this is your go-to for running without the overwhelm.
I’m always happy to chat about bespoke run coaching projects – so if you have something in mind, let’s talk!

A NEW TYPE OF PLAY
I'm here to help you discover what you're capable of, one step at a time.
