Hello, there! Have you been swept up in football fever? Nah, me neither. I do have some teams in the family sweepstake I’m keeping my eye on, but that’s about it for me! 

This weekend, I got in a great run, and I began looking ahead to my upcoming runs. I had thought I didn’t have many to look forward to but it turns out that have six- yes, six- races coming up! Eek! All should be great fun though.

I also really enjoyed PiYo tonight: we started a new Flow section and I feel great after it, very relaxed. 

All in all, I’m feeling good at the moment!

Hello! Anyone else wilting in this unseasonable weather? I’m not complaining- definitely not- we’ve had a great long, warm spell recently. This weekend I did more gardening, went for a run, a hot tub and chilled out. It was amazing, and just what I needed after a tough week.

Today’s started off the same way last week finished, and so my eye is firmly on enjoying this weather while it lasts and keeping my training on track this week. And here’s what I’m using as my focus….

 Exactly! 🙂

Hello, happy Monday! It has been another gloriously gorgeous day, and for me it’s been a solid start to the week. 

I had another busy weekend, catching up with lots of the best people and making plans for this summer. I’ve also booked our travel and accommodation for the Disneyland Paris Half Marathon- yay! 

My piriformis seems to be healing, and while not quite back to normal yet, the pain and numbness has reduced significantly over the past week, I’m hoping to have a couple of gentle jogs this week. Fingers crossed! In the meantime, I’m off to PiYo for some stretches and also for a brilliant workout. 

This is how I’ve been framing my recovery:

Or at least, I’ve been trying to! Have an ace week 🙂

Hello, everyone! Did you have a good week? I did. Yesterday marked the end of this year’s 5×50 Challenge and despite injury, I’ve really enjoyed it. Here’s a short photo summary of my 5×50 adventures: 


I’m not quite finished with challenges, though, as we are mid way through Paths For All’s eight week step count challenge. 

To celebrate the end of 5×50, we booked our flights and accommodation for the inaugural Disneyland Paris Half Marathon this September. We have our training plan at the ready, and once my injury has healed we’ll get back out running. In the mean time I’ll keep up with the walking and PiYo. 

Here’s a little something that reflects my current feelings: 

 Kidding! Here it is, really: 


Have a wonderful week!

Hello, just a quick stop from me today- we had a wonderful weekend celebrating my nephew Liam’s First Communion on Saturday:

 Check out these crazy wee guys! On a less upbeat note, I’ve managed to irritate my sciatic nerve, so I’m off to the Docs tomorrow morning, just to check it out. Jacqui, my wonderful fitness guru has given me some stretches which have definitely hit the tender spot, so I’ll no doubt be doing those a few times a day for the next while. I’m hoping to keep up the fitness classes thought they may have to be adapted for now. 

Hope the sun is shining as brightly for you as it is for me today😀
