If there's two words that strike fear into the heart of any working mum, it's these: summer holidays. The constant juggle of work, childcare, snacks (the endless snacks!), impromptu taxi driving and more mean that those six weeks that should be the most relaxing of the year are, in truth, anything but.
We're stretched thinner than ever, and the first thing that usually has to give, for me, is any kind of lengthy workout. Those hour-long runs and full-body sessions are put firmly on the back burner until September - but this doesn't mean that I'm relinquishing my fitness goals entirely.
