Hi folks hope everyone is well. I never got the 10 miler done for August - just ran out of time.
Hopefully I will get out for a couple of run before I go away on Thursday.

This little one kept everyone entertained on Saturday

So cute! X

Well my running partner/husband/carer is injured and can't run the marathon this weekend with me

😢 We are both gutted (understatement really) We've both helped and supported each other all the way to this point and now it's over. My friend GG has very kindly said she's happy to still to the marathon with me and she'll be briefed on what to do/watch out for with my seizures. Feeling very anxious and extremely nervous as I've not ran without him for at least 7 years maybe longer! There's wine at the water stations though which I'm sure will help calm my nerves, why do think I decided to do it in the first place lol 😉 Oh dear me. I will be fine and I can do this

Oh no, EB, what's CB done? I'm sure you'll be fine with GG - can you switch to the half if the full mara is a bit much?

Nutso Lazytoad!
Thank you all 😊my race went really well with a course pb of 1hr and 56 seconds, going to see if I can dip under 58 for the abbey dash in October which would be a pb there too. My legs are sore today but no real ill effects, hamstring a but tights right ankle stiff. Back at the physio with the senior man again Friday.

Lg awwwww ❤️
Eb oh no, you can do it we believe in you

Kwala it's a calf tear 😢 I don't really want to switch to half as GG and I have planned this for soooo long.

Nutso wow well done on the pb 😀 Hope the physio sorts out your legs. And thanks for believing in me

EB - ouch, hope he heals quickly x I know what you're like once you set your mind to something and have no doubts that you will complete the marathon, drinking the vineyard dry in the process!!

Well done on the PB Nutso, keep looking after those legs and you'll easily get that Abbey Dash pb too :-)

EB & Kwala Thank you

I'm confident the physio has me on the way to the mend, I'm frustrated and it seems its been quite complicated to fix! Would have been easier in some ways if I had waited until I broke something proper lol
