@worthingrunfest - Worthing 10km
Went into this one already a bit deflated as Iβd been suffering with a cold/blocked nose most of the week.
Iβd accepted that this was going to be a βjust get round and donβt cryβ kind of day but ended up absolutely loving it.
Pre-race routine wasβ¦experimental. A leftover pastry at 8am (I regret nothing) and porridge in the car.
Sunshine, flat course, closed roads and a gorgeous prom to run down βοΈ Garmin says 55:47, chip-time says 56:10. Either way, it was my fastest 10KM in a while π
Carbs, mild suffering & low expectations for the win πͺ

π Medal Monday π
Had a great time at the BrighTEN yesterday. Huge shoutout to @runrebeluk@ukrunningevents for such a smoothly run event.
Gorgeous route - even if the hill by the marina turned out to be a bit more βcharacter buildingβ than Iβd planned for. π
Thought Iβd gone off a bit too fast but splits were actually pretty even and a finish time of 56:23.

β€οΈ Entering 2026 with nothing but a full heart.
π To L, the one that holds us all together. I know the last year has had itβs challenges and my post-natal hormones havenβt always made it easy. Thank you for loving me through it all, for carrying so much, and for showing up every single day.
β¨ Our girls: C is growing into such an incredible young woman - full of confidence, kindness, talent and beauty. And E, who lights up our days with her cheekiness and big smiles.

π 5km Santa Dash π @santadashbrighton
Not been feeling super festive as we canβt put any decorations up yet due to our recent move and work being done in the house, but running 5km dressed as Santa has helped get us on our way! πππ
I had a major outfit misfunction when the belt ripped 0.5k in π€£ But with the help of some well placed safety pins I was saved. Although itβs lucky it ended when it did because Iβm not sure the trousers would have lasted much longer!

Another week, another Medal Monday!
Havenβt been able to crack a sub-60 10km post-partum so I went out pretty determined for the @arenahoveprom10k
It was such a nice event, so well planned and the volunteers on route kept the motivation up throughout so huge thanks go out to everyone for getting me across the line in 56:34. πππ

π Parkrun #50 π
Hit my 50 milestone today by volunteering as park walker. I have my first event in 3 years tomorrow so didnβt want to run but didnβt want to miss out on grabbing my 50th either so volunteering was a good option! β€οΈ @parkrunuk

27:55 - SUB 28! Set off feeling a bit meh and thinking it was going to be a bit of a slog and ended up with my fastest parkrun since 2019. πππ
