Sophie Ruffles - Mum, runner, & wild swimmer. Host of @whatnextmumpodcast 1x100km ultra, 7x marathons. Fast-packed The Jurassic Coast!

<div>Sophie in her own words:</div> <div> </div> <div>“I am a solicitor and mum of one, currently pregnant with my second. I’m a runner, outdoor swimmer, paddle boarder and host of the What Next Mum Podcast. </div> <div><br /> I have been running for 12 years and have run plenty of half and full marathons. </div> <div><br /> When I had my son I had a real fear that I would lose my identity as a runner but that hasn’t been the case. </div> <div> </div> <div>Since having him I cycled the 100 mile ride London 4 months post birth and ran a one day 100km/62 mile race.</div> <div> </div> <div>Since then I have continued to do my own self made running adventures, including running the Jurassic Coast over 3 days, the West Mendip Way and running along the Wye Valley. </div> <div><br /> I started the What Next Mum Podcasts, so I could talk to like minded women and share their stories to inspire other mums to ditch the mum guilt and get out there. </div> <div><br /> I am also a keen outdoor swimmer, this is my fifth winter. I’m a rubbish swimmer but love being in the water and will be swimming to the Isle of Wight in September."</div> <div> </div> <div> </div> <div>New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast go live every Tuesday and Thursday at 7am UK time - Make sure you hit the subscribe button so you don’t miss out. </div> <div> </div> <div>The Tough Girl Podcast is being sponsored throughout March by Inov-8.</div> <p> </p> <div>Use <strong>TOUGHGIRL20</strong> to get your 20% discount on all trainers and running gear. —>> <a href= "http://www.inov-8.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl= "https://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.inov-8.com&source=gmail&ust=1646089223554000&usg=AOvVaw3nlhqidVwQZpiElmyWx8QS">www.inov-8.com</a></div> <div> </div> <div>Get involved with the #MarchDailyMile Challenge.
