Originally from the South, Lauren moved to Manchester to study English Literature — and never left. She’s always been a fan of swimming and has recently discovered the power of weight training.
After completing a 10K last summer, she’s currently training for her first half marathon and is gradually starting to see how people can genuinely enjoy going for a run.
