Easy miles with pals + some more hills 🙃

Legs are feeling good but feeling a little tired within myself so I’m looking forward to two rest days in a row 😍 bliss! Get my head in the game for Sunday!

Medal Monday 🏅

Gotta say I kinda like this little shiny medal! Just a reminder to myself that I don’t have to “race” every run I take on and that sometimes, slowing it down and enjoying the atmosphere is just as good as pushing!

The Great South Run ✌🏼

Lovely run this morning!! First time doing this event and I honestly actually really loved it!! Opted to take it easy as my legs are no where near ready to race after last weekend!

Kept pace with a lovely girl for the first 7 miles before picking up a a familiar face (both got amazing pbs!!) 😍🔥

Bumped into lots of other buddies along the route which made it all the more fun!!

Lovely to see soo many of you and get a chance to actually chat! One of the perks of not racing I suppose 😅 Great day all round and a massive well done to everyone running today!

And we are back to

Local parkrun today as still struggling with the whole waking up on UK time 😅

Took it a little faster than I should have today coming in at 20:59. But it also felt good to flush the legs out a little!

Got a fairly busy admin and diy day today but hoping to make some time for rest later ahead of tomorrows Great South Run✌🏼

And yes. I’m still repping the gear & probably will be for the foreseeable 🫶🏼

Ring that damn PB Bell 🔔 🔥

I rolled the dice and came away with a 3:09:07 🥹 a 16 minute and 13 second improvement!!!

For how this block has gone and my sickness bug yesterday it’s safe to say that I’m beyond ecstatic!

And yes. I called my mom after crossing that finish line and cried like a baby with pride 😂😅

I will get back to each and everyone of you in time but right now, I’m eating a f*ck off massive $9 pizza from 7-eleven and a big gulp of Fanta ✌🏼

I love you all ❤️🥰

Chicago Marathon 2023 🇺🇸🎲

400s that felt 🔥

Back on the park track getting them laps in!

Decent session tonight, 400s followed by a few 100s to really kick the legs out 🔥

Loved that and also loved wearing the new Streakfly 🔥 my gosh they feel FAST 😏

Let’s goooo

PB race 🔥🔥 Wasn’t expecting that atall but we all know I love a race 😏

Walking away with a 38:17 🔔 feeling stoked! But okay.. time to taper 😅 I swear ✌🏼😂

Well that was wet.

Headed out for a session at pace, started and felt good, 2 miles in the heavens opened and it POURED down!

Legs felt good, plus it was nice to get out along the under cliff with other runners about ✌🏼

T-minus 17 days 🇺🇸

Copenhagen Half Marathon 🇩🇰

1:29:03

Today was incredible! What an event! The crowds were INSANE! The city came alive 🔥🔥

The heat got to me today, the race was never meant to be a fast one, but more a fast fun run.. which I nearly forgot when I set off too fast! But that’s a story for another day..

But for now, I’m chilling in the airport, sipping on a coffee waiting for our flight ✌🏼

RACE DAY IS UPON US!

In less then 12 hours it will be time to take on the Copenhagen half marathon! 🇩🇰

I’m not “racing” tomorrow, just running a fast fun run, but if you want to track, download the CPH half app and tap in my bib number, you can also watch the race via the app live 🤌🏼

Let’s gooo Copenhagen!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I actually ran 😍

God that felt good! Well.. kinda..

First run in nearly a week! If you haven’t seen my story, I’ve been really poorly for the last week after taking on the Yorkshire 3 peaks! thankfully with lots of rest, hydrating and praying, I’m finally feeling on the mend!

Wanted/needed to get out to test the legs and set my mind at ease ahead of this weekends 😅😫

Run felt okay, legs were heavy and hr was higher then I’d have liked but I kept it easy and just wanted to survive the run 👍🏼
