Annie Foulds – Chief Sweat Officer | Marathon Addict | Human Dynamo

Meet Annie Foulds—part coach, part cheerleader, part caffeine-fueled whirlwind. She’s been running marathons longer than most people have kept houseplants alive and somehow manages to make burpees almost fun (we said almost).

Annie’s the kind of trainer who’ll gently push you to your limits—then make you laugh about it while you’re gasping for air. With 24+ years of pavement-pounding, two grown sons, and a never-ending playlist of 80s bangers, she brings motivation, mischief, and muscle to every session.

Warning: training with Annie may cause increased confidence, spontaneous dancing, and an irrational belief that you too could run an ultra-marathon. (Spoiler: you probably can.)

Let’s get it done. Together!

Annie Foulds — A Journey of Strength, Spirit, and Self-Discovery

Her remarkable journey proves that strength, vitality, and transformation are possible at any stage of life.

For Annie Foulds, fitness is more than physical effort — it’s a transformational journey that integrates the mind, body, and spirit. With over 16 years of experience running her own company, Annie Foulds Fitness, she wears many hats: fitness instructor, mentor, and personal trainer. Annie’s knowledge runs deep, and her passion shines through in every session. But her story stretches far beyond the gym floor.

A former dancer, athlete, and model, Annie understands the power of movement, expression, and rhythm. As a seasoned endurance runner, she embodies resilience and the mindset needed to face life’s toughest challenges head-on.

Annie’s holistic approach honours the connection between physical, mental, and emotional well-being. She empowers clients to unlock their inner strength, building self-awareness, confidence, and lasting change. Her work goes far beyond conventional training — blending mindfulness, spiritual practice, and personalised nutrition to support long-term transformation. She specialises in sustainable weight loss strategies, advocating for real food, balance, and a healthy relationship with nourishment.

She also recognises the importance of postnatal exercise, supporting new mothers in safely rebuilding their strength and confidence. Her thoughtful programs meet women where they are, addressing the physical and emotional shifts of this life-changing chapter.

As a devoted mother herself, Annie understands the challenge of balancing competing roles. Her empathy creates a nurturing, judgment-free space where clients feel supported, seen, and encouraged to thrive.

Annie has also been lacing up her trainers for a higher purpose. Over the past 24 years, she has run marathons for charity — 15 of them in support of Great Ormond Street Hospital. Every mile she runs reflects her unwavering dedication to making a positive impact on children’s lives and her belief in the healing power of hope and giving back.

Annie isn’t just a trainer. She’s a motivator, a mentor, and a source of inspiration. Her mission is clear: to help you reconnect with your strength, rediscover your spark, and realise your potential — one step, one breath, one goal at a time.

Join her at Annie Foulds Fitness and begin a journey of empowerment, self-discovery, and lasting transformation.
