🚴🏻♀️ ATHLETE RECOVERY 🏃🏻♀️ Getting back into long runs means one thing - podcasts! I listened to a cracker on Sunday from @physicalperformanceshow with a former colleague of mine Dr Shona Halson on athlete recovery. This isn’t just another recovery chat let me tell you! Shona is thought of as the current world leader in the space of athlete recovery and sleep. Shona’s superpower is translating all that cutting edge research into what’s practical, what works and is simple to implement - for everyday athletes to the pros and everyone in between.
Key takeaways for me:
1. Do the recovery foundations (sleep and nutrition) - all the rest is tip of the triangle.
2. Periodise recovery for optimum results.
3. Psychological recovery is just as important for performance!! So put this on your playlist for your next run!

This morning I had the pleasure of joining these awesome #womenleaders on the panel at the ESSA Women in Sport Science Breakfast in Brisbane. I’m grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with these women, start the conversations, and challenge the narrative in elite sport. There’s much to be done in the next few years to provide equal opportunity to females in sport and leadership, but we’re certainly moving in the right direction! I’m excited to be part of the wave of change.
Key take aways:
1. Know your value
2. Back yourself
3. Take the human approach with athletes
4. Diversify your skill set and increase your value
5. Find mentors
6. Communicate, influence & negotiate

Here it is! .
My interview with Regina from Sports Women Connect Foundation has just been released today.
.
I had a blast filming this episode, as Regina and I spoke about athlete health and performance, barriers to success in the global south, and of course, women in sport. We need to be strategic in creating environments that support an athlete’s development, and allows them to thrive, not just survive. .

Huge few weeks for our #EastAfricanSportScienceIntern Felix! Massive leaps in practical development & impressive skill set portrayed as he worked hard to co-develop and deliver services with our @HarperPerform team in recovery nutrition, injury monitoring, active recovery, training monitoring, and movement programming. We threw everything at him and he soaked it up like a sponge! Incredible! So very excited to see what the next two months bring! 🇺🇬 #EASSI #internship #mentorship #performancedevelopment #EastAfrica #makingsportfairer #levellingtheplayingfield #equality #equity #performancesupport #changeiscoming #SDG2030
Today I was on camera. I don’t particularly enjoy being in the spotlight, but I do love being able to talk about women and girls in sport, leadership, health, and performance. It was such a fun experience! I had the pleasure of meeting Regina from Sports Women Connect last week here in Kampala and jumped at the opportunity to be on her show whilst I’m here 🇺🇬 Thank you for the great chat Regina!

Final day for us today at the Football For Good Academy here in Kampala 🇺🇬 Wrapping up 2 weeks of project delivery enhancing sports nutrition provision, hydration, and recovery strategies; implementing active recovery program and training load monitoring system; injury monitoring; a movement screening process and corrective program. So excited to see the impact of these interventions in optimizing training and performance for these scholars. Thanks to the coaches and technical staff on the ground for co-designing and delivering this support with our @harperperformance team ✌🏻
