Fueling for a 100-miler isn’t just about numbers — it’s about trust, training your gut, and flexibility. From coconut-water flasks to checkpoint snacks, here’s how I planned (and adapted) my nutrition for nearly 28 hours on the Thames Path.

Training for an ultra isn’t just about long runs — it’s about the small, daily decisions no one talks about. From skipping pizza nights to early mornings in the rain, here are the real-life choices that shape every ultra runner’s journey.

Let’s face it: Calorie counting can feel exhausting, rigid, and disconnected from your body’s actual needs. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by food tracking apps or struggled to know how much is enough, you’re not alone.

Going into my first 100 km Ultra Trail Run Challenge, it was interesting and a bit of a guessing game what to pack, especially hydration and nutrition wise. Here’s what I decided to bring with me on this incredible journey.

I love my vegan lifestyle, however, there are a few challenges I face. In this article, I’m going to share with you i.e. how I prepare my meals when I travel, the prejudice I face because I am vegan and how I respond to them.

My transition to a fully plant-based diet took much longer than I initially thought. But it was the absolute right decision in order to make a healthy and sustainable switch to a vegan diet. Here’s how I approached it.

Here’s another delicious recipe: A self-made flatbread. Don’t worry, all my recipes are healthy, quick & easy to prepare and affordable. Also, I outline a vegan and non-vegan version. Bon appetite.

Here’s one of my favourite recipes: A carrot-hummus. Don’t worry, all my recipes are healthy, quick & easy to prepare and affordable. Bon appetite.

There are three main reasons why I became a vegan. In this article I’m going to share with you why I decided to transition to a 100% whole-food plant-based diet.

“Tonight I’ll treat myself with pizza, ice cream, and a beer.” I hear this sentence so often and I can’t help but thinking: Who are you trying to fool?
