Life
Team Juice Completes Cotswold 24 Hour Race
Our team of seven ran a 9km off road loop through Cirencester Park for 24 hours straight, covering 207km and finishing 41st out of 119 teams.
Marathon Milkshake Smoothie
A post workout smoothie made with banana, dates, raw cacao and maca powder, blended with coconut milk and peanut butter for a milkshake taste that doesn’t feel healthy.

After losing over 5 stone I stopped setting new goals and slipped back 10 pounds, the mistake I made and why clear goals matter even after you reach them.

A vegan overnight oats recipe from one of my Raw Food Made Simple courses, mixing oats, chia seeds, goji berries and coconut milk with strawberries stirred in just before serving.

A creamy, dairy free raw soup made from red peppers, fresh and sun dried tomatoes, cashews and basil, blended warm in a high speed blender.
