“So long as you learn from them, they’re not really mistakes.”

Finding the balance between drinking both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks while still exceeding your personal health and fitness goals is what food and fitness blogger Flora Beverley is all about. Whether it’s listening to her body’s needs and striking the right balance between recovery and exercise, ultra marathon runner Flora has tips to help realise your goals.

From finding out how her sleep was being affected by alcohol and the impact it had on her training, to sharing advice about getting started and the first steps to taking part in your first marathon, Flora’s story is as inspirational as it is motivational.

But it’s not all hard work and life-affirming advice as Flora explores what it’s like reconnecting with nature and the outdoors, what has brought her joy recently, and the three things that she couldn’t live without.
