It’s officially nearly race week. And while most London Marathon runners are spending this week tapering, carb loading and brimming with excitement and nerves, I’m…. writing this. I’m a runner who spent most of last year looking forward to the London Marathon 2025 and a Health Editor who couldn’t wait to bank her tenth - and hopefully fastest - 26.2 miles. But I’m also a human.

If you're on the hunt for the best gym wear, know this - ethical and sustainable sports brands should be on your radar by now. As the latest IPCC reports have shown, the time is now to combat global warming - we might not have long left. Case in point: 10,000 items of clothing get sent to landfill every five minutes.

I know I'm not the only one who's Googled whether a clothing or beauty brand is actually sustainable before. It's a minefield, right? With so much greenwashing, it's often hard to tell the genuinely innovative and game-changing brands from the ones that could perhaps be doing more. I stumbled across the site Good On You a few years back now, when I'd first joined Marie Claire UK as their Senior Sustainability Editor, and it immediately caught my interest.

It’s officially only 21 days until the London Marathon. Three weeks. 504 hours. And the longest “long” run I’ve banked so far? 9.3 miles. With race day looming, I’ve really had to assess my options, facing up to the harsh reality that my body simply might not be ready to deal with the load come race day.

I have a confession to make - I currently have more running shoes for women in my house than I care to count. As the Senior Health Editor here at Marie Claire UK and a nine-time marathon runner, I'm constantly testing the latest designs and Whatsapping friends and family with my recommendations. While I've been running for the best part of ten years now, it's only in recent years that people seem to have cottoned on to just how joyful lacing up can be.
