Women’s Running | May 2021
In the May issue of Women’s Running we look at the effects of Covid on running. While the wider impact on our mental health, our general physical health because of gym closures, and our livelihoods have been well documented, we were keen to investigate the virus itself and how it affects runners in particular. We speak to women who have suffered from both Covid and Long Covid to find out just how it affected them and their running, and find out what lessons they’ve learned along the way, so that we can learn from them too. And because races are tentatively opening up again, we look into assisted running: how able bodied runners can assist others to cross the finish line, and we hear from those that assist as well as the assisted to discover the mutual joy that it brings. This month we’ve also got the only 10K training plan you need, a posture-perfect workout with a focus on form, and a good look at the supplements we should all be taking right now. Plus, lots of beautiful kit, tons of inspiration and all the training you need to get out there and enjoy your running.
