Train. Improve. Repeat.
Whatever it is in life we are doing where there are other people involved, there is one thing we tend to want, and that is acceptance. Moving to a new area, starting a new job and even something as simple as finding people to run with can be stressful, and also make you feel vulnerable in terms... Continue Reading →
Hey there! I hope you are having a good week and that you are getting to run lots. It's been a mixed bag of a week for me with trying to still keep off my feet a little bit to let my bursitis heal but I am feeling much better and the pain is starting... Continue Reading →
Hope your week has been better than mine. My week hasn't been so bad but from a running point of view I'm not happy right now! My week started well but went down hill and I am now unable to run! I ran a great 5k on the treadmill earlier this week and the niggle... Continue Reading →
Wow I can't believe it - it's less than two weeks until the Gold Coast Marathon. What a roller coast ride it has been! I'm almost there now. Tapering off on my longer runs and gearing up to go. The flu that I had has gone now - yay and my shoe issue is 90% sorted.... Continue Reading →
I had a bit of a not so great week last week. After all the trials with my foot and not having run a decent long run; on Tuesday night I then got sick. I'd been outside for too long at night wheeling my son up and down a cold foyer and the next morning... Continue Reading →
Well the marathon is almost here and the last week or two have not been without drama as you will have read in my last post.

It's a 7 week countdown now to the Gold Coast Marathon and I have struggled this week to remain motivated. The weather has gotten colder, it's dark in the mornings and early evening and I just want to stay in bed! I had a couple of sessions where I pushed them to later in the... Continue Reading →
How time flies. My son is almost one and I have been back into training for a The Gold Coast marathon in July for almost four months. I'm clocking up around 70km a week at the moment and it's going well. I have to admit, it hasn't been plain sailing all the way, and at... Continue Reading →
I hope you've had a good week of running. It's been a mixed week of running the last 7 days for me and I can't believe the Gold Coast Marathon is now less than three months away! I had a bit of a melt down about a week ago when I suddenly realised I am... Continue Reading →
I posted a while ago that I was frustrated at not being able to run at the moment due to some medical issues. It's really hard when you are used to doing something you love (I have been running for 11+ years) and are told to stop. I have gone through a number of psychological... Continue Reading →
