Lois Mackenzie
Lois Mackenzie is a fitness writer working on news, features, reviews and buying guides for Coach and sister site Fit&Well.
Lois is an avid runner, hill walker and has just completed her first marathon. She can often be seen sporting her trusty waist lead as she runs the streets of Glasgow with her two dogs in tow.
Lois’s love of the outdoors comes from growing up in the Western Isles and, when not writing, spends her time exploring Scotland’s many beaches or (slowly) bagging Munros.
She studied at the University of Aberdeen where she attained a master’s degree in English literature, followed by a master’s in digital journalism at Strathclyde University.
Lois was previously a senior SEO reporter at Newsquest Media Group covering breaking news and sport, trends and lifestyle as well as producing buying guides across more than 200 local newspapers.
