Celebrate the smallest victories

I recently ran the La Mercè 10K, a popular race held every year in Barcelona, and it reminded me just how much the little wins matter. Getting to that start line wasn’t about one big leap, it was about all the small steps along the way: the early fartlek runs, the track sessions, the extra kilometres, the gym sessions, and even the days I gave myself rest in between. It’s all progress. These positive habits I’ve built into my life are what make the bigger goal possible. Without these smaller victories, the bigger goal wouldn’t have gone as well.

With more races coming up, I need to keep these habits going—and the best way to do that is to recognize my accomplishments. Here’s a simple way I’m doing it:

Mini-Win Framework:

  1. Daily reflection: Note one thing each day that pushed me closer to my goal.

  2. Weekly wins list: Capture 3–5 wins from training, rest, or mindset choices.

  3. Visual tracker: Mark completed habits on a calendar or journal to see progress.

  4. Celebrate small victories: Reward myself with small treats or moments of rest.

By acknowledging the small wins, the journey feels as meaningful as the finish line itself.

Running Encounters

Every time you step out the door, you have the potential to meet someone great. That was exactly the case on a Wednesday morning run with the Razze club. Andrew Glaze, the well-known ultrarunner who has even completed the Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc showed up.

On holiday in Barcelona, he was keeping up his legendary streak: running 100+ miles every week, for an almost unbelievable 286 weeks in a row.

That morning he joined the Razze 8km group, and I had the chance to run alongside him. It felt like such a gift to run with someone who has pushed endurance running to the absolute extreme.

I came away inspired, not just by his sheer mileage, but by how he shows up for himself day after day. Even on holiday, when it might be easier to take a break, he continues his challenge. And more than that, he puts himself out there, meeting new people and bringing life and connection into what could otherwise be a solitary pursuit.

He’s often heard saying, ‘Smile, or you’re doing it wrong.’ And that simple reminder was enough to leave me finishing the run with a grin of my own.

Strng X in action

Last weekend, I went to the launch of The Pink Collection by Strng X. Instead of the usual speeches and champagne flutes, we kicked things off with a fitness class — my kind of launch. A room full of strong-minded athletes, coming together to push limits in what turned out to be a tough but energising session.

It felt amazing to be in a space surrounded by athletes, passion, and people who share the same drive. More than just an event, it was a reminder of what I represent — and the kind of community I want to keep close. It confirmed that I’m on the right trajectory: building a social circle with people who care about their health and wellbeing, whose priority is to show up for themselves and for others who might need support, just like at this launch.

By the end of the day, I felt deeply satisfied as I reflected not only on the event but also on the life I’ve been building for myself.

Embrace discomfort

There are so many ways to get strong, happy, and healthy, and I’m always open to exploring new practices especially those backed by science. At the same time, I’ve been reminding myself to return to habits I’ve drifted away from.

One of those is the cold plunge. I’ve never been a fan of the cold, but knowing the benefits, I can push past my resistance. As I step into the water, I remind myself: it’s just information. My perception decides whether it’s a challenge or a treat.

I started small, two minutes and worked up to three and a half. Each time, it felt rewarding to rise to the challenge, to step up and step in. And every time I got out, I felt better for it.

Trusting the Unknown Path

Last weekend, I joined a hike with ten strangers in Northern Spain. Before setting out, I set my intention: “I step boldly into new experiences, trusting each connection and challenge opens the door to the life I’m ready to live.” Moving with intention always helps me shift my energy and create my ideal day.

The hike wasn’t just a physical journey; it was about stepping onto a new path, putting yourself out there, and sparking new social circles beyond your usual group. When you do this, you open the possibility of meeting people who could unlock unexpected doors.

This experience left me feeling tired but also brought clarity to some areas of my life, as I allowed myself time to reflect and think. If you’re feeling called to try something new, trust the journey. It will strengthen your adaptability and willingness to leap without certainty, qualities that can ripple into your work, creative projects, and personal life.

The group effect

There’s something about riding in a group that makes you level up or being in any group, for that matter.

You’re still doing your own ride, finding a pace just on the edge of sustainable, but being surrounded by others pulls something extra out of you, something you might hold back from if you were alone.

I clocked 14 achievements on Strava that day, on a route I’ve done solo before. Not because I was racing anyone, but because the energy of the group opens something inside you. You push a little harder, hold the effort a little longer.

But the best part? The strong riders, always circling back, always regrouping. No one left behind.
