Audiobooks and motivation

We start this week by sharing what we’ve been listening to while we run to help pass the time. Cara’s been tackling a juicy fantasy series while Holly bares all and confesses the most embarrassing audiobooks on her phone. 

Sports bras

Feeling the strain of washing the same bra three times a week, Cara’s after some advice on buying a new running bra. We share all our favourite options, as well as our tips and tricks on how to know you’re wearing the right size and style.
