Run. Eat. Repeat.

I'm Sophie, a 22 year old Londoner currently studying in Manchester. I have just got back from a year living in France where my love for food has been joined by a new-found lust for running.

Pumping some (not that) big

Today I bench pressed for the first time ever. I walked right on over to the scary weights section where the scary muscle-y men were doing strange things with weights as big as my head and said “excuse me, are you using that bench?”.

I proceeded to bench press 5kg (ohhh yeahhh!! Got to start somewhere, right?) but I feel I made progress in terms of fitness and feminism! Girls can go in that sweaty corner too!! I also did 36 (girly) press-ups.

I also made one of my lecturers say “boobs” in class.

I feel really proud of myself.
