If only that rain and wind wasn’t so tough - it was brutal near the end! 😓
Proud tho! That’s two years worth of training paying off there and the perfect way to round off week one of my sabbatical break! 💙💙
BTR Liverpool half marathon complete and smashed it -ok it’s a different course but this was tougher elevation and weather wise from two years ago but managed to shave 10 mins of last time and do second fastest half marathon and other distances! Smashed it!
All set for @btrliverpool half tomorrow - even if I am a bit bloated and sluggish after a night out - probably not the best idea! 🙈🙉
Running tomorrow as part of my @londonmarathon training raising money for @anthonynolancharity - link to donate

Starting to feel a bit under the weather but still managed to get out for 12k long run because marathons don’t run themselves. Exciting day tomorrow so time to relax, focus and get in the zone!

Another week of exciting times, pushing myself and stepping out of my comfort zone to put myself in positions a few years ago I would have ran away from. Whatever happens I’m proud about how much I’ve grown over the last few years! London marathon training

Advocating today for being able to say when you are struggling mentally with life and I certainly have this week.
Went for a 10k run today around Amaterdam and it was beautiful and helped me clear away the thoughts in my brain.
It’s ok to say you are struggling!! 🫶
@Sthelensstriders 5 miler today - just about over the lurgy so not 100% on it but a good time and segment wins too!!
