Well… hello again 👋✨
I’ve had a rather blissful few weeks off social so thought it was time for a reintroduction. 🏃♀️💫🚴♀️🥬🍓
I’m Ally, an Editor, writer, presenter, and runner. ✨ I used to hate exercise, but it’s changed my life, and I want it to inspire other people to give movement a go, too. 🕺
I’ve been a journalist for 10+ years, starting my career at Women’s Health magazine and writing for the likes of Glamour, Cosmo, Grazia, Stylist, and The Telegraph. I write and commission pieces on fitness, nutrition, wellbeing, female health, mental health, and more, all with the aim of making health less confusing, and more joyful. 🤝
I’ve been the Senior Health Editor at @marieclaireuk for 5+ years now, and am so proud of what we’ve built - a brilliant team who cut through the noise each and every month to debunk fads and inspire you to give healthy living a go. 🥗🍓🍵🏃♀️🚴♀️🧘♀️
I also test fit kit for a living, so have quite literally all of the product recommendations you could ever need. If you’re ever on the fence about buying something, DM me - I’ve probably tried it and have an opinion. 😜✍️
I ran my first marathon for Cancer Research 8 years ago in a time of 4:11. It’s changed my life, and I bang on about it far too much. 😂🫶
Since then, I’ve banked:
London Marathon 2019: 3.58
Peterborough Marathon 2021: 3.35
London Marathon 2021: 3.26
Chicago Marathon 2022: 3.19
Berlin Marathon 2023: 3.15
Valencia Marathon 2025: 3.12
Boston Marathon 2026: 3.08.
4/6 World Majors ✅ any ideas what might be next? 👀
Can’t stop, won’t stop, still such a punch me life achievement. Always the biggest thanks to the @newbalance family 🫶
We got married at home, because my parents did, and basically had a big party. We didn’t do many traditional things, but it was unbelievably special to have all our fav people in one place for the weekend. I’ll never forget it! 💒💍
Plus, as a thrift lover, my @viviennewestwood sample sale dress made my LIFE. I didn’t even need alterations. Felt like it was meant to be!! 💫
The whole hen was just a highlight of my life, but OBVIOUSLY WE RAN and OBVIOUSLY IT WAS ABSOLUTE VIBES! 🏃♀️ (The people of TikTok seemed to think I

AD - Running isn’t about perfection - it’s about progress, positivity, and the small changes we can make every day that build up to a bigger whole.
One thing I’ve changed recently? I now fuel adequately.
Training fasted used to be my go-to. But now, I won’t run without fuelling my miles.
One small change - but it helps me to show up stronger than before.

Introducing one of the faces of your 2024 @newbalancerunning @londonmarathon - ME. 🥹🏃♀️🤯😭🚀
A campaign designed to celebrate all runners, I was asked to front the official LDN 2024 Marathon campaign alongside a mix of other grassroots runners, club founders, and athletes from across the UK. The aim was simple: to share the stories of real runners, many who have tirelessly built or expanded communities purely because of their love of the sport and passion to share that feeling with others.
It’s hard not to get a bit emotional seeing my face alongside so many other amazing humans. Running has changed my life for the better, made me who I am today, and enriched my life in so many ways. The London Marathon was where it all started - it’s single-handedly responsible for making me fall so head over heels for the sport.
Running is never just about running - it’s about joy, community, endorphins, energy, passion, pastries, and making the most of every day. And, of course, reminding yourself day in, day out, that yes, you can. 🫶
One of the biggest pinch me moments of my life being featured next to Team GB Olympic Gold medallist @lixsanyee and Team Switzerland Olympic Gold medalist @debrunnercatherine, too.
I CANNOT tell you how excited I am to see these out in the wild (coming to NB stores, the expo and billboards near you soon!) - please do tag me if you see them anywhere. Biggest heartfelt thanks to @harry_swin @grovelanerunners for making community running feel fun again and @newbalance @gungho_co and the dream team @harrietrose90 @georgemarrable for the opportunity. One of my biggest life highlights to date! #RunYourWay

In disbelief sitting writing this tbh. Championship entry for the 2027 @londonmarathon. Never in my WILDEST DREAMS did I think little old me could run a time fast enough to qualify.
SEE YOU ON THAT START LINE FOR GIRLS DAY BBY!!!! 💖🌸🎀🧞♀️🦩🩰🤙

I’ve been thinking a lot about what it means to be a woman in running this week.
On Sunday, I ran the New York City Marathon. A race that felt particularly significant this year, with the elite women given their own moment in the spotlight (let’s not talk about the fumbled start, though..) and almost 29,000 women crossing the finish line (the most ever!!).
It makes me incredibly proud to think how far we’ve come. From an inaugural race in 1970 where all 55 finishers were men, to a field where women now make up almost half of all finishers.
But this weekend also brought a much more difficult perspective.
I couldn’t stop thinking about Katie Suarez, a 28-year-old woman who was attacked while running on Friday. It’s thought that New York would have been her first marathon, and that she should have been out there there beside us. Soaking up the atmosphere. Celebrating all her hard work in training. Feeling the euphoria of the finish line.
Sadly, she passed away on Monday. Violence against women is everyone’s problem. Women should feel safe to run. Women shouldn’t be killed on the street.
It feels important to hold both truths of this reality we live in together. To celebrate the progress, the achievements, the community and the freedom that running can bring, while recognising the very real dangers of being a woman in this sport and the completely unnecessary loss of life.
We have so much to celebrate, but also so much to navigate.
For the women who paved the way, the women running today and the generations still to come. 🤍
And for Katie. 🤍

You might think it was hard to convince them to do this TikTok… quite the contrary, actually. 😂🤪
Best cheer squad in the WORLD, all wearing the @newbalancerunning @nycmarathon tees, obvs. 🚀

You waited for SIX hours to see me for 10 SECONDS?! Grateful won’t ever cut it. ❤️🔥
Here’s to the cheer squads who keep us going and also the lovely stranger who filmed me seeing my parents around mile 26. It’s officially my favourite video. 🥹🫶✨

@nycmarathon you will always hold such a special place in my heart. 🥹 Marathon number 12, @wmmajors number five, and my first time ever running 26.2 for fun, not for a time.🗽⭐️
Everyone always talks about the energy of this city but my god it was out in full force yesterday. Marathons bring out the best in humanity, and I saw so many random acts of kindness.
People waiting on barriers for hours to cheer loved ones and strangers alike. People handing out snacks, gels, water, and setting up their own aid stations. People picking runners up off the floor, aid station workers going out of their way to make sure you had everything you needed, and runners pushing other runners through.
Every single damn mile was hard not to smile through. 🥹 What a privilege it is to have experienced it all! ✨
Thanks as ever to my coaches @andyhobdellahcoaching and and @lilliesfitness, and my epic cheer squad - I quite literally couldn’t do it without you. And to everyone I met, who messaged, or who cheered me on, your support means more than you’ll ever know. 🫶
Turns out, sometimes the best way to run a marathon is to just run. ❤️🔥 Fifth star, 12th marathon, and a first I’ll never forget. 🥹🏅
