What’s your regular diet plan like?? Do you think keto diet plan would be helpful for a starter?

noooooope. I hate that keto has become so mainstream when it was designed as a diet for people with very specific chronic health problems. I really urge you to do some reading – from reputable sources – around the dangers of such a needlessly restrictive diet.

it’s my genuine belief that society has massively over-complicated healthy eating. almost everyone instinctively knows what’s good for you and what isn’t. it’s why I hate keto. anyone who recommends chewing on deep fried pork rinds over a bowl of fresh fruit is just... argh.

anyway, I personally think the Mediterranean style of eating is the best for overall health and longevity. TONS of fruit and veggies, an abundance of olive oil, a bunch of whole grains, some meat/cheese/fish, some nuts/seeds/legumes. so, so many fresh tomatoes. just good, simple food, as unprocessed as possible.

and hey, I might not have visible abs, but I’m famously high-energy, rarely get sick, have clear skin and no underlying health issues... and that’s good enough for me 🌻

Hey! Do you have any insight into what it was like working with Neon Literary? I’m trying to find an agency to reach out to and I’m so nervous!

I haven’t heard of Neon! I was with New Leaf Literary from 2014 to 2020, if that’s who you mean? happy to chat privately if you like.

ten warm miles // after a few months of sporadic, lacklustre training, it felt really good to just get out there and do the damn thing without overthinking it 🌿

[therunningwriter]

in the interest of transparency, I took quite a few breaks during this. do we think a sub 25:00 is possible by the summer?

[therunningwriter]

my current book is set in a world where art as been outlawed and explores this very thing ✨

Thinking about the countless times art and music and cinema and literature have saved and comforted me during difficult times i really owe my happiness to everyone dedicated to their craft

[therunningwriter]

I know that you shouldn't eat carbs after training.. Is it true?

sounds fake babe

[therunningwriter]

would you guys be interested if I started talking about my writing on here too? I’m a published author who started out with a childhood dream and scrapped my way to eight major book deals, and I’d love to talk about what I’ve learned ✨

[therunningwriter]

also, I love yoga now! I’ve gone from “yoga just isn’t for me, I don’t get it at all” to “ya I want to do this every moment of the live long day because it makes me feel so GOOD!”

[therunningwriter]

the only thing better than seven easy miles? refuelling afterwards 💫

[therunningwriter]

running just hits different with salt air in your lungs ✨

[therunningwriter]

i... i think i like yoga now?

back at it! it’s been a rough few months with snow, sickness and injury, but i’m back to feeling really motivated with my running. i’m excited to see how much i improve with six months of consistency! would love to set a new 5k pb when parkrun starts back up again 💫
