Huge thank you for everyone’s congratulations love and messages received since we announced our news yesterday .
It’s even crazier since announcing, and it’s been amazing ❤️
.
Back to it today and a bike and strength training session for a Tuesday. I’ve learnt many things through the first trimester and have had a lot of questions since yesterday. I’ve been quite fortunate on the whole but have definitely had my days filled with nausea and have had fatigue that has wiped whole days off the side of the planet I’ve very much just gone with the flow, and tried to listen to my changing body as much as possible. That’s not to say I’ve found it any less frustrating at times
.
I will be posting on my blog shortly more about it, now that I can
.
For now though, @chimarathon training is still very much on. But will obviously be adapted to allow for the most important thing that’s growing right now .
Hope you’ve all had a wonderful Tuesday ❤️

I’m not generally a sweaty runner but today I’m literally dripping - It’s seriously muggy out there guys!! (Runs off to have a shower......) .

Coastal trails running along from our hotel in Turkey. Had to double back at one point as the cliffs were so steep and it was so far down, a heart racing moment as feet started sliding. Beautiful views out to sea, thank goodness for a breeze as these legs aren’t used to running in this kind of heat. Not that I’m complaining though!

This girl
.
In February we started... Jess hasn’t found it easy, but she’s kept turning up for the 6am runs, trusted me and this morning she ran 5k, non-stop with no walk breaks.
.
We cried. I’m so proud of her and can’t wait to get her to a parkrun
.
If you’re struggling... keep trying. It doesn’t matter how long it takes or how slow your progress is.
.
I’ve said it before; running doesn’t care if you have to stop for a breather, if you walk the hills or if you pause your watch.
.
Running only cares that you keep trying, that you keep showing up, and that you don’t give up on it ❤️
.
One foot in front of the other babe, just keep moving

Today was all about the rest day and enjoying BBQs in the sunshine ☀️ (feel like I should whisper that so it doesn’t disappear too soon)
.
Tonight is all about getting my creative on and getting the signs ready for some super cheering at #swanseahalfmarathon tomorrow looking forward to seeing lots of you there!
.
Good luck to everyone racing tomorrow ❤️

It always seems impossible, until it is done .
This time last year I was gearing up for my second ultramarathon in two weeks at Race to The King!
.
Absolutely loved the ultra adventures but also loving the different adventures ahead this year starting with knuckling down and starting #chicagomarathon training next week!
.
Huge amounts of luck to everyone tackling The King tomorrow! Have fun! ❤️
.
Right, I’m off to watch Toy Story 4

Marathon progress
♀️ *London 22.04.2018* - first marathon. Hottest London marathon ever. Training had gone well but I was really ill 3 weeks before.
5:27:58 when I hoped for sub 5
♀️ *Newport 29.04.2018* - 2nd marathon a week after London. @tanya_runs_cf14 got me through when I felt like giving up.
4:50:30 got my sub 5
♀️
*Manchester 07.04.2019* - 3rd marathon. Aiming for sub 4’30”
Pacing goes to pot after 30k but I still manage to reach my target
4:26:36
♀️
Next up @nycmarathon ! I want to train better and harder than I ever have before to get ever closer to that sub 4 goal. I’m ready to work for it .
.
.
.
.
I’ve talked to a lot of people about my marathon over the past few days. A common phrase amongst those 99% of people who haven’t done one “Oh I could never run a marathon!”. Let me just say this YES YOU CAN! Set that goal and go and smash it. Believe in yourself and you will.
