Sally Orange will be a familiar face to many runners who have taken on a marathon or two. Sally has now completed over 85 marathons – very often dressed as a piece of fruit (her name has certainly come in handy) – and she holds six Guinness World record titles. She is the first and only female veteran to complete the World Marathon Challenge (seven marathons on seven continents in seven days) and she has received an MBE for her work raising awareness about mental health.

The incredible Eilish McColgan graces our cover this May, seconds away from running the London Marathon.

From the moment we go to school, we’re told to sit still. From then on, we’re told off for fidgeting in our seats wherever we go, from the bus to the classroom and the dinner table. However, for many of us, it feels very unnatural to sit still for long periods of time and it can even cause health issues like increased risk of heart disease and diabetes, back problems and bad mental health.
