SPONSORS
I'm really lucky to be working with brands that I truly believe in. It took me time to find companies that I wanted to work with, but that's because I'm picky. I reached out to brands whose products I already used (because they were the best available) or I chose to work with those developing new products. It's so exciting to trial and feedback on products and to be able to influence their evolution into the perfect running accessory.
Above all I love working with small, local and innovative businesses. Where that isn't possible I choose larger companies who use their influence to advocate for environmental and social change, and who value the wellbeing of their athletes. No matter who I work with the ethos and atmosphere of the brand need to fit.
Rab Equipment
I love spending time in the mountains above all else, which is why I'm happy to be partnering with Rab - a brand designed for doing just that.
From helping to develop a mountain running specific range to using their tried and tested products to keep me warm, working with Rab is an absolute pleasure. I'm thrilled to be working with a brand that builds community and promotes sustainability, as well as making products that get me outside on wheels, skis, feet and everything in between.
VJ Shoes
VJ originated in the Finnish forests, and you can tell. I've found no shoe better equipped to deal with the UK's wet and challenging conditions. Whether you're faced with ankle deep mud, a slimy slab or frozen puddles VJ have got the shoe to keep you on your feet. They specialise in shoes that are designed to keep you moving quickly and efficiently in extreme terrain, but they also have an excellent range of trail shoes suitable for easier terrain. Best of all? They're high quality and last for ages.
Vaga
I'm fussy about hats. In all the years I've been running I'd only every found one hat that I liked to run in. It was orange and I loved it. Then I lost it. Years of squinty, hatless running passed.
​
Then in 2020 Vaga came along. They make comfortable, packable, lightweight, washable, windproof running caps. What more could you want? Oh, and they look cool too.
Suunto
Gone are the days of stopwatches and streets you'd memorised the distances of, and for good reason. I'm using the Suunto Race S at the moment and I love it. There are so many features that help me to train and recover, such as the interval setting and sleep information.
