Round 2 @jamiechadwickseries recap video 🏎️🏁❤️🔥
I’ve been putting the work in and have had help from @hopewood_ (last year’s JCS champion) - safe to say I need all the help I can get after throwing myself in the deep end 😂
I’ve also met some really lovely girls along the way already, which has made the whole experience less nerve wracking!
12th out of 13th, and instead of being lapped 3 times by P1, I got it down to just one lap 🥲
Progress is progress, and I’m taking it all in. Tomorrow it’s Round 3 at Tamworth - wet weather forecast and a pretty technical track. My body’s still aching from practice earlier this week, so it’s going to be a tough one 😆

💭’a PB but just over a minute off a london championship time’
post race, I always find myself battling my mind - it never feels like enough. in some ways that drives me, in others it’s hard to sit with.
talking to my friends after the race adrenaline wears off always helps bring me back to perspective. it’s so easy to look sideways at others, especially as many of my peers in the sport are men, it’s conversations like this that help bring real perspective.
my friend also pointed out something important about how much harder it can be for women training while navigating monthly cycles - something that’s often overlooked in performance.
so shoutout to all the incredible women who ran yesterday - navigating so much behind the scenes that people don’t always see.
zooming out, i’m reminded that progress isn’t linear, and comparison steals more than it gives. keep focusing on your own lane, you’re further than you think 🤍

3:11:36 - PB in London 🏅🇬🇧
Went into this one not really knowing how the pacing would play out. Was just trying to hold onto 4:30/km for the majority! The start felt sluggish, doubts creeped in and I honestly wasn’t sure a PB was on the cards, but every. single. time. the crowd carried me through and gave me the push I needed
I know there’s more in me and I can do better, but I can be proud of this one especially after a turbulent block
A big thank you to everyone that cheered me on today, my family and friends for the constant support + @runna for backing my training 🤍
More to come… but for now, TIME FOR VIETNAMESE FOOD IN BED wohoooo
Delivered: race day shoes 🇬🇧👟📦 ad
@saucony_eu RUSH Depot is officially LIVE! customisation bar, panel chats, and more!
Excited to be racing in the Endorphin Elite 2. The fastest shoe in the Endorphin family. Honestly, I love a good bounce in a race shoe and these might be the bounciest I’ve laced up yet… 👀
T-2 ❤️🔥
doing the absolute most 2 weeks before london marathon - muay thai camps, fire shows, buddhist temples, getting sunburnt…😂
those who’ve only followed me recently, probably have just seen quite a focused side of me this block but this time last year, I was living a very different life with my sister 🤣
(didn’t make it to the start line)
last long run from last week 🥹
picked the hottest day london had seen for a long while which meant this was a tough workout 🫠
a lot of my last long runs have never gone to plan tbh and i’m realising how much adaption has to play in the game of running
little moments like bumping into @t2trill_ being looked after with sweets and a drink is what makes marathon training special. simply good energy and supporting each other 🫂
shout out to @matthew_bowen for also being my supporter as well as being my camera man 🫶
now t-9 days
up in the mountains ⛰️
truly grateful for this opportunity.
can’t say too much yet… but this one is special
really been loving mountain life lately. met some incredible people who have really inspired me ☺️
excited for the summer and a shift in training - a little taste of what’s to come… but first London ❤️🔥
