Firstly my apologies for my distinct lack of blogging of late. I’ve been so busy running, I have barely had time to do anything else! I am finally managing to address the balance, although I seem to have got a bit carried away with the resting…
So I promise I am still here in the land of the living… I bet you thought I had fallen off the planet with my lack of blogging! I am so sorry to have neglected you but my current goal, mission, crazy passion has well and truly taken over…… This running a marathon malarkey…
Often this time or year can feel like such a trudge. The fairy lights and brightness of December becomes a distant memory and the stark bareness of January can just feel like such a let down. Money is often tighter than pair of skinny jeans. Oh and as for your waistline and even your health…
So there I was cleaning the cooker, merrily singing along to the song ‘Footloose’ on the radio, when I suddenly found myself remembering a funny observation I had made whilst out on my last run. I realised that I run differently to whatever song comes blasting through my earphones at the time, and it really…
Well I’ve only gone and done it, fulfilled a life long dream and have managed to sign up for the Brighton marathon on the 9th of April 2017. I am sooo excited about it, or to be more precise, a strange a mixture of excited, proud and slightly nervous. I’ve been really pushing it lately…

Despite a rather bad nights sleep and awful weather, I woke up yesterday morning determined to seize the day. Lying in bed, thinking about the fact I will be in a plane this time in two weeks time certainly helped. ( I must maintain my beach ready body.) So an hour later I was power-walking…
I am happy to say I had a much better time all round this week. Work has been better, I am back on track with remembering to take my complete woman vitamins, and I am having a great time running. This weekend has been particularly good, partly because I actually had both Saturday and Sunday…
Well its certainly been a while since I last updated my blog. To say its been busy is an understatement! I had a week off from my day job and boy did I put it to good use. Where do I start? I finally decorated my, sorry ‘our’ bedroom, turning it from a multifunctioning, dark…
