Just change one thing — lessons learned while SUPing at the beach…

Just change one thing — lessons learned while SUPing at the beach…

by Eugenie Verney | Jul 18, 2018 | Making Waves Blog

I’d never been to Hayling Island before but had heard lots about it. My swimming mates and my stand-up paddleboarding mates all rave about this spot on the English Channel coast so when an impromptu outing popped up, I didn’t think twice. With my partner, I set off on...

On the road to Rutland Water for my next SUP challenge…

by Eugenie Verney | Jun 12, 2018 | Making Waves Blog

One of the big benefits of running is that there’s not much kit involved. Shoes are obviously the biggie, but once you’ve got those sorted the rest is really just about clothes to match the seasons and maybe a hydration pack once the miles crank up. Same goes for open...
What happens when you wing it in a 10k race…

What happens when you wing it in a 10k race…

by Eugenie Verney | May 16, 2018 | Making Waves Blog

The last time I raced a 10k was nearly a year ago and I’ve not been clocking anything much more than 5k in one go since then. It was therefore pretty clear as I stood on the start line of the All Nations 10k at Dorney on 12 May that I would be winging it. There’s...
Another milestone on my SUP journey as a new board takes centre stage

Another milestone on my SUP journey as a new board takes centre stage

by Eugenie Verney | May 10, 2018 | Making Waves Blog

You know when an inanimate object just feels right? Well, so it was when I first took out what is now my very own stand-up paddleboard. I’d been heading towards getting a board — yup, seemed to have got irrevocably sucked into this now! — but before I committed to the...
A race that really ratcheted up my sharp SUP learning curve

A race that really ratcheted up my sharp SUP learning curve

by Eugenie Verney | Apr 18, 2018 | Making Waves Blog

Sometimes what’s neatly lined up in your head just doesn’t quite match reality. And so it was with my first proper standup paddleboard race, the Head of the Dart, on Sunday 15 April. We’d all been looking nervously at the weather forecast and doing that thing where...

Where I am Making Waves…

This is where you get behind the scenes with me and find out what makes me tick.

There is another purpose, too: I want to help empower others — women in particular, and especially women over 50.

If that’s you, I want to help you discover — just I have — that you don’t need to be constrained by ideas you’ve had about yourself, about what’s expected of you, about what you may believe is and isn’t doable.

I want to share ideas, share my own story, and above all my passion for being physical, being at one with my body, whether that’s through my running, my open water swimming, through ski-ing, stand-up paddleboarding (my newest passion), yoga, or plain old-fashioned walking.

Please let me know if I catch your attention — all feedback most welcome!

PS And if you’d like to know when I update my blog, please just sign up below.

PPS Just so you know, I don’t always toe the line around what makes for optimal health and wellbeing, and I can sometimes be a bit controversial…
