This time next week I will be doing the London Marathon!!!! Scared is an understatement I haven’t trained nearly as much as last time but let’s hope I manage. At this point Maranoia is setting in & I have so much self doubt. This is what I have trained for though😬😬🏃🏻♀️🏃🏻♀️

Twelve weeks and 5 days until Marathon #2. 😳😱😱
Training is going well so far despite the Icy pavements. I hate treadmill running so just go out when I can.
Had a run at one of my favourite places today - Aberdeen Beach.
A day off meant I could get out running in the day light🙏🏼

The training has finally started properly!!
I have a place in the 2023 London Marathon🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I will try & keep posting on this page weekly again. I am not raising money for charity this time, I’m doing it for fun.
Today I had a lovely run in the snow. This weather makes running so much more enjoyable. I also unboxed a new pair of trainers which of course makes it even better🤭

Today would have been my 3 year wedding anniversary. If you told me this time last year I would be writing this I definitely wouldn’t have believed you. Last December I left my Husband as I was suffering from mental/emotional abuse. It was one of the hardest things I have ever done.
At the time I didn’t think anything was wrong but the final straw for me was him screaming at me in the car & speeding. I was in tears but he didn’t think he was doing any wrong. That night I had enough, I packed all my things & left my flat I had shared with him. I asked him to get help however he refused. There was nothing else I could do to help him as he didn’t want to help himself.
Looking back on my relationship there are many happy memories that I share however overall I am really happy. I have amazing friends, family & colleagues who have all been so supportive & amazing this past year. After leaving him I have achieved so much just for me, I ran a Marathon which he said I’d never manage to do😂. I have so many plans for next year that again if i was still with him I would never achieve.
It’s different people telling you you are in an abusive relationship as you don’t see it untill you are out. If you think you are in an abusive/toxic relationship reach out to friends/ family! Trust me it’s much better to get out.
