The Color Run at Wembley

Happy Running

Fly Girls Running Community
at The Color Run- Wembley

The Fly Girls Running Community a women only beginner running group entered their first ever group run in a regional running event on Sunday 11th June. We decided to enter as the theme of this race - be happy, be healthy- aligned with our groups running agenda's. Most of our members joined the Fly Girls group to run to improve their wellbeing, to get the feel good factor after a run, to release stress, all of which are for good mental health. We are a fun run group and not racing takes the stress of running competitively, therefore this London running event was ideal for us.

Reviewing 3 Fitness Trackers on Global Running Day

 Tracking our steps

Fly Girls Running Community
Wembley Stadium Run 

Some of my running buddies from our running community use fitness trackers on the runs when we run together. They tell us the distance they have run, their time and speed as well as steps. One explained that it monitors her sleep as to how deep or restless her sleep was. Most people use it for monitoring their steps and calories used, others may want more specific facilities.

The Garmin Vivofit 3 is a simple effective fitness tracker that counts steps, monitors sleep and captures different activities such as walking, running, biking, swimming and cross training. It costs under £100.

I subscribed unknowingly of the whole foods to eliminate which was giving up wheat and processed foods.

Groups are the best motivator

Fly Girls Running Community-Wembley Stadium

The Fly Girls Running Community are a women only and girls over 14 years beginner running group, that started their running training at the iconic Wembley stadium on Sunday morning's in 2016. We are a registered RunTogether group under the "Get Me Started" level. My experience leading this group and previously being a member of other running groups, i can honestly say that running in a group is a strong motivator to keep you going. Having run alone over the years in comparison to running with groups i've joined, the latter has always been preferable. Here are five reasons why:
