Dear Reader
Sorry! I'm a day late, my post-holiday routine has taken a while to be back to normal!
This week I'm focussing on PAIN management. Sore joints, aching muscles, niggling injuries - we’ve all been there.
Are you reaching for paracetamol or ibuprofen just to get through a run? That quick fix might be doing more harm than good.
In my latest EAT TO RUN post, I unpack:
- Why painkillers can delay healing and increase race-day risks
- What every runner needs to know about NSAIDs and kidney stress
- Natural, food-first strategies to support recovery and inflammation
Whether you’re training or racing, there’s a smarter way to run pain-free.
This isn’t about avoiding all medication – it’s about informed choices and understanding the risks, especially on race day.

Have you used or avoided painkillers in your running journey? I’d love to hear your experience.
All of my EAT TO RUN posts can be found here, so if you need some quick advice on a topic I've shared in an email you can scan my archive instead of scrolling through old emails check here!
