  1. Hello beautiful people ♥️ I’ve missed you and I’m sorry for being so quiet 🙊 I’ve been in my own little world working away on something very important to me these last few months, and I haven’t had much time to myself. To be honest, life’s been unsustainable and imbalanced and giving me flashbacks to my IronMan days when only one thing in the world existed. COVID hit us pretty hard for a while, and we spent a few weeks not able to eat much and feeling like we were on a never-ending boat trip 🛳 but we had each other and are just thankful to be back to ourselves. My back has been holding up real well so I’ve been finding my old strength and feeling like myself again too, so life’s good and I feel extra lucky 🥺 All the heartwarming messages and emails these last few weeks were the sweetest things of all time and I’m sorry there isn’t enough time in the day to reply to each and every one of them! I’m so excited to be back soon with a head full of ideas of videos and experiments and science I want to share 👩‍🔬 Thank you for the insane kindness always and for staying the best support anywhere! 🤍

  1. Now that all the undergraduate exams are finished (I think??) - it is officially end of term! 🥳 So I thought I’d share a little recap of the term 🎓 🍽️ 💃🏼 📚 ! I hope you like it! Hope everyone is having a lovely weekend! I’m off to the library soon to continue my to-do list : today I’m focusing on re-running the analysis and updating the result section!

  3. Seeing as we are officially entering Autumn (😭 ), I though I’d cling to summer a little longer by doing a recap of some of my favourite sunshine clips (taken in 2023, 2024 and early 2025) ☀️ Hope everyone has a really good week - not to dampen your spirits, but I recently learned that the sun will now not set after 8pm until April 2026 😭 I love the long light evenings so this was tragic to hear 😂 hence the urge to post some summer videos!!!

  1. My boy ☃️ he’s always been a superstar, when I was riding him a year ago I still got off grinning about him - he’s always been incredible and every day he throws himself into work and shows me how much more he has, I adore this horse, despite being sensitive as heck and sometimes I think (like with the changes) I wish he was a bit more thuggish because he cares so much, but then that’s why I adore him, he’s such a softie, and wants to please so so much 🥺 … not to mention the engine behind this boy 🚀
    868.3k
  2. He felt up for more, so I let him go… Please excuse me I very much wasn’t expecting that 💥 (or to be filmed lol😅!) He’s felt very high energy these past few days, and today I used it more, not sure he’s as ready as he seems to think as although it felt mega, he’s not really strong enough, I didn’t ask for any more passage like than this despite feeling more collection on offer as I’m not sure it’d have done him any favors at this point in time but excited about this boy (as always 🥰)
    321.4k
  3. Running through our transitions this evening, keeping that tempo the same, making sure the rein only shortens the stride without removing any impulsion or swing! Free walk, medium walk and the end of the collected (where he lifts his shoulders probably because his nose came out… noted!!) I quite like. Although needs more confidence and security, we’ve added a lot of impulsion recently by removing the blockage the rein had caused by me letting him think rein meant stop/ slow down (rather than collect or give & seat mean slow) so this works is new… well not new but better, and that’s harder for him. The extended needs alot more nose out. I will do better tomorrow, but leaving it in as it’s very clear the difference (and importance!)… and the medium walk too, the collected started that way but I fixed it when I started to think about piaffe (interestingly…) All though I am pleased have the same tempo! 🙌🏽

  1. First ascent of No Remorse 8c at The Bunker. I had a bunch of visits cleaning and climbing this mega roof. Such good moves! Full video of this and several other great new routes in did at the crag over the summer on my YouTube channel now (link in bio). Also, thank you so much to all of you who have been pre ordering Moving the Needle this week. It means a lot, really!
    79.3k
  2. Core Pain 8c first ascent. The name came from that weird toe hook, which gave me an abdominal strain that still hasn't completely healed. It's just really the one hard move on this route, but I really struggled to reach the last inch to the next crimp, and spent absolutely ages trying to be inventive and get something that worked. For most of that time, I was pretty stumped and couldn't picture myself managing the move. Full story of this climb, and the mindset I use to get through roadblocks on unlikely projects on my YouTube channel now.

  3. Jack's Broken Heart, a classic 8A in Magic Wood. Climbing here in 2016, last time I was in the wood. As you might expect, I still have some unfinished business there which I'd love to get back to sometime.

  3. ad I did the majority of this training block around NHS life - 25km long runs after night shifts, squeezing in 80km weekly mileage around 72 hour working weeks and legs which felt too tired to walk up stairs most days let alone run tempos... I am so so so unbelievably proud of this time and the amount of hardwork + sacrifice that went into it 🥹 this race felt so special and it blows my mind that some of you guys were out there on the course or cheering for me - ILY xxxxxxxx chip 3:03:15 wearing @lululemoneurope (ambassador)

  2. If you’re having a bad day, just think: at least you didn’t deck it in front of millions. A little gift from your Aunty Tiff. Only *I* would fall over AFTER the routine. I auditioned for BGT twice and got through to the final 200 both times so it’s not all bad. They edit to make things look so different but that’s the name of the game. Anyway- the moral of the story: never put weight into your Outside Sole Edges unless you want to feature on @polelols 🥰👋😆 . . #fails #epicfail

  3. There’s so many things I’m limited with in pole such as shoulder flexion, back bend, posterior pelvic tilt blah blah blah. You think I let that stop me? Do I frig. Just change the angle up, train the thing you want to get or even just pretend that movement doesn’t exist! Enjoy yourself. I’m a professional poler and I don’t think my lack of certain abilities make me less worthy- I see it as specialising in certain areas 🤔😂😂 such as illusions, technique and dance. I hope me sharing my “cants” help you to “can” ❤️ wearing my GORGE @olraactivewear bodysuit #icantsoican #tifffinney

Its been a weird few days … But here’s an In the life of a 🧠 neuro PhD Student! - when things don’t always go to plan Edition✨ As you might have seen from my stories, my husband broke his elbow and we were in a&e all night last Wednesday (literally 9pm until 630am) and so I missed lab on the Thursday 🥱 So not strictly a day’s work, my protocol has been weirdly split up in stages … but here’s some of what I’ve been up to! Lovely to see some new faces around here. I feel I haven’t checked in with you all in a while so tell me 👇🏼 How’s your week going?

  2. Very tough one to take and as a team we are all devastated not to get this club back in the higher league. Although we are sorry not to achieve this; I know that apologies won’t be enough as we all desperately wanted to end this season on a high through our actions. Nevertheless, I do not doubt the commitment & endeavour my team have shown & with the core players left for the next season I know that the aim and focus will be very much the same to go one step better as success isn’t a straight line 📈. Thanks for all your amazing support this season as you really did come out in numbers and personally supported me through some lows in the season; it’s appreciated. Have a great summer as we recharge our batteries for the on coming season. Dunks 💙 🦉🫡🙏🏾.
