Mary Jennings: Fit running into your holiday if it excites you but don’t ruin your break by forcing it

Marathon fever can cause novice runners to make crazy decisions in preparation for the big day

Help them gradually get used to warmer times – whether it’s in flip flop or going barefoot

Remember, the clock is just one of many ways of defining running success

Eight weeks is a reasonable length of time to plan ahead in detail

Each day that you skip knocks a little piece off your fitness and running confidence

It’s time to get started so by summer you can clearly focus on the big race

Is your motivation to run low even though you love it? Here’s how to take that first step

The only way to find out what works for you is to set new challenges

Rushing back to training, even if symptoms were mild, could do more harm than good

We all experienced the pandemic differently: do not let fear stop you signing up to a race

Mary Jennings: We must ensure we do our best to look after our outdoor community

Where will your running take you this year? It might help to take it one month at a time

We cannot predict the future but we can keep track of how we navigate through it

Yule enjoy the lazy, chocolate-filled days more by staying active over the festive period
