I know this makes me a loser, but I have bought a medal rack!  As the intention is to run a medal-winning race each month I just though it would be an awesome way to keep my achievements in plain sight.  I should receive my Run Every Day medal from Mind soon which takes my … Continue reading Medals 

Today I ran my 1st race of February which is technically my 3rd medal winning run of the year. It was so good! Last week was madly busy and had so many late nights so I took myself off to bed at 9pm last night. I am really grateful for a good nights sleep and … Continue reading London Winter Run 10Km

This last week has been hectic with work. The trip to Rome and then I’ve had a couple of full days and evening since I got back. My last day at yoga was Sunday before I left for Rome, so 6 days ago now, and my last run on 31st Jan, 4 days ago.  Once … Continue reading February so far

I acheived a fair amount in January. I ran 100Km, completed my 1st medal-winning race of the year, and finished a 30-day hot yoga challenge.  Why? Well, January is always a good point to reflect on the last year and to set intentions. I don’t like the often transient nature of New Years Resolutions but … Continue reading Reflection on January

Yesterday, despite the hangover, I ran 2Km completing the Run Every  Day challenge for Mind. This January I have completed 100Km running every single day whilst simultaneously completing a 30-day hot yoga challenge.  More posts to follow later! Continue reading I did it

Run. I ran 2Km when I got to the hotel despite the overwhelming need to sleep. I was so tired but this challenge has really got me to prioritise exercise even when I don’t want to. So, despite feeling like getting straight into bed I ran and I really did feel better for it.  This … Continue reading When in Rome….

I slept terribly. Getting into bed at 1am knowing I had to be at yoga at 08:30 wasn’t good. Add to that the nocturnal communication efforts of Clifford (my ginger feline bestie who woke me 3 times) and it’s fair to say I had one of the worst nights sleep I’ve had so far in … Continue reading Sunday 

On Saturday we were attending a friends wedding in Somerset. The plan was to run and do my penultimate yoga class early doors on Saturday. On Sunday I would need to go to yoga before flying to Rome. Due to these factors it meant I would be driving back from the wedding late on Saturday … Continue reading Saturday
