SMASHING June...
June is an exciting month for the SMASH London team as we will be celebrating our TWO year anniversary!! We have a lot of exciting things happening and plenty of ideas flowing at the moment, which we are looking forward to sharing with you all very soon... including news about class number 20!
Body Image and the Media
As most of you know I have been working hard these last few weeks to finish my final assignment for my degree with the Open University! This year in particular has been about contemporary issues in sport and exercise and has helped me really get critical over what we see in the media, how we may be unknowingly brainwashed from a young age and how to find good scientific studies in order to make up our own mind about a subject.

Hey SMASH crew, Sam here with my body image journey for Mental Health Awareness Week…

The challenge is on!
I'm sure most of you know by now that Ash is running his first ever marathon tomorrow - and what better marathon to run than THE London Marathon!
Be Outrageous...
This week we have used the word 'outrageous' a lot - in a good way! When we were at the amazing wedding reception of SMASH London regulars Jules and Mark, we saw a lovely little quote on their wedding card. It's from Matilda by Roald Dahl and said -
"Never do anything by halves if you want to get away with it.
Impatience...
This week has been a bit of a rollercoaster of moods for me. I've been up and down like a jack-in-the-box, between feeling absolutely amazing, to really tired and unmotivated. The latter has taken some getting used to because the past few months have been filled with so much excitement and change,
