I’m Clare. A dancer, runner and (sensible day time job) trainer. I live in Northwich, England. I run a dance school, a fitness company, and a production company. I am currently house hunting and boyfriend hunting. It seems I am hopeless at both, so will be adopting a cat soon. You can find me on Twitter at @claredooley
- I started running 22 years ago to make my bum smaller so I could go to dance college. I have now run a marathon and am training for Hell Runner (google it, its messy!)
- I run because I like weather, talking to random animals I meet and generally getting away from the 101 gadgets we now need to survive (apart from my ipod) and I wear a pair of Sketchers Go Run, in Coral. The colour is important.
- The last run I did was this morning and I ran 10k around the paths of the river Weaver. It was cold, invigorating and emotional as it was my first run in 3 months due to injury.
- My current fave bit of kit is my Physio, currently the only ‘kit’ of any use to me!
- I'm training for Hell Runner in 4 weeks time. Lots of mud, running through rivers, it will be grim but I’m fundraising.
- Running made me feel like I have achieved something every day. It also makes me feel amazing when I slip into something size 0!!
- I'm currently listening to my favourite playlist which consists of Madonna, Coldplay and Michael Jackson. I have excellent taste! I smile when I run, and if its dark, occasionally I do a little dance step.
- I participate in my local Tri Club. They are great. You can find more information here if you want to get involved.
- I started eating Vegan the last few months which makes me feel superior to most humans but not superior to animals. It has also given me shiny bright skin, which is a bonus.
- I'm currently obsessed with finding a running lip gloss that moisturises but has a tint…
- I'm bringing Ballet to the table. Most runners need a bit of ballet in their lives...
- I'm currently having issues with my hips, hamstrings, everything…speak to my Physio! (The Friday 5pm appointments are mine, so don’t even ask.)
- Finally, here's my inspirational quote from my Grandma Lilly, who managed to survive 94 years, so I guess it works.
