mascaras that don’t run OR clump - one of our biggest wedding day worries. Suddenly, I had an epiphany – we need to start a Zest Bridal Blog.While Zest may not be a magazine for brides, per se, we know there are tons of you out there who turn to us during

So, I'm on week 2 of the training plan and I was doing my ten minute run, two min walk bit this morning. It was a lovely sunny morning, so I thought I'd take the route through my local woods and over the common. The ten min run there was hard going as uphill (by the way, has anyo...

It doesn't seem as long ago as 10 weeks since I started my Zest challenge, but Sunday marked the culmination of my training with my first 10k race.I was excited but really nervous - not helped by the fact that I turned up to the wrong park to start with and then, upon arriving at...

I'm now on week 5 of the training plan and for the first time I'm starting to feel like I can run at different effort levels without collapsing in a hyperventilating heap. In other words, I've started to feel like I've made some improvement...maybe even call myself a runner.Well,...

I had my first gait analysis at the swanky Asics store today (www.asics.co.uk). I was a bit worried I'd embarrass myself on the treadmill with my novice skills, but apparently it's a good idea for beginners to have one done as it means any problems are corrected before you get in...

Just before I set off on my Sunday run (50 mins), I thought I'd have a look at how far I'd been running. In my head, I've been clocking up around 7k on my long runs, so it was a bit of a shock when I actually put my route into a route planner. Seems my two favourite runs are only...
