This innovative and inspirational group have managed to transform from a physically supportive community to an awesome virtual support network. They have shown so much empathy to their members, by adapting there goals, aims and support to help all the ladies feel supported and encouraged to continue their running journey . Here is what Dani from the group told us..<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">\u2018We felt it important to keep momentum in the group and continue supporting our ladies as much as we could from afar. Many of our ladies have worked so hard to get to where they are on their running journeys and we know that She Runs: Cardiff has played a huge role in this. That being said, we felt it was our duty to continue to support these journeys where possible.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">\u2018Firstly, we introduced a virtual run club, which takes place on the same days as our scheduled runs would have taken place. We know a lot of ladies are still out running solo so we thought it would be nice if we could encourage the group to post about their runs on these days so that they can be congratulated on their efforts and feel like they\u2019re still running as part of a collective. \u2018<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">\u2018Instead of medal Monday this week, we did an appreciation post for all of the key workers within the group.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">\u2018Today we introduced our April self-care challenge. For the last two months we have done physical challenges; January it was a daily plank challenge and February was a daily squats, mountain climbers and crunches challenge. However, since social distancing started, a lot of us She Runs: Cardiff founders \/ run buddies have really felt the strain of not being able to run with others and it has had a negative affect on some if not all of our mental health. So we thought if we are feeling mentally low, then other members of the group must be too. Hence why we moved away from a physical challenge this month and set a challenge for the group to take some time look after themselves. There is an idea for each day of the month, they don\u2019t have to be followed in order or they can just pick a few that they do throughout the month but we\u2019re just trying to encourage them to take some time out. \u2018<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">We also did a mental health check in post which we will be doing every week.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"x_6qdm\">&#x1f49c;<\/span>Mental health check in\u00a0<span class=\"x_6qdm\">&#x1f49c;<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7009 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/irun.wales\/app\/uploads\/April-self-care-2-1-300x251.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"251\" srcset=\"https:\/\/irun.wales\/app\/uploads\/April-self-care-2-1-300x251.png 300w, https:\/\/irun.wales\/app\/uploads\/April-self-care-2-1-768x644.png 768w, https:\/\/irun.wales\/app\/uploads\/April-self-care-2-1.png 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In these very strange times we are all here for each other.<br \/>\nHow are you all doing?

As there are no races at the minute, a lot of ladies have signed of to do this both in support of the cause and to have something to work towards.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7007 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/irun.wales\/app\/uploads\/Autism-Awareness-1-300x251.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"251\" srcset=\"https:\/\/irun.wales\/app\/uploads\/Autism-Awareness-1-300x251.png 300w, https:\/\/irun.wales\/app\/uploads\/Autism-Awareness-1-768x644.png 768w, https:\/\/irun.wales\/app\/uploads\/Autism-Awareness-1.png 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\">This fabulous group has over 750 Facebook members!
