About Lazy Girl Running

Run coaching, marathon running, writing

Lazy Girl Running was founded by coach Laura Fountain through a belief that running can be fun even for complete beginners. Since 2013, Lazy Girl Running has helped hundreds of women start and return to running through Run Groups, Training Guides and Online Coaching.

Our groups have been recommended by Runners’ World, Time Out London, Women’s Health magazine and Stylist.
