One year ago today 🤍 and I’m taking it on again in six days… This was honestly one of the best days of my life. Watching this video back makes me so proud for persevering. Exactly what I needed to watch to get me through this maranoia I’ve currently got. I am so determined to do myself proud again. Doing it for my younger self who had no idea what she was capable of 🙏🏼 For anyone else running London this year, good luck!!! Have fun out there because that is what it’s all about!!!
AD ~ On days I can’t do much, a shower always makes me feel better! Especially when the body wash is created to match your mood 🫧💘 you can shop the @method products body wash range on Boots or Amazon now!! This vid ended up showing the extreme level of my disability where I can’t even do anything. Yet the video I originally planned, I was going to show my post-run self-care when I’m in pain but can handle it. Would you like to see this still?
⤹ My why Thinking about it really got me deep in my feels 😅 This is what will carry me through tomorrow so make sure you know what yours is!! It’ll help you through the tough times especially if you hit a wall. You’re got this 🤍 Alsooooo… at the end of this video, I may have given you a sneak peek of my marathon outfit for tomorrow 👀 as always, in head to toe @lululemon ★ AD In order to do good, I have to feel it on the inside AND out so my marathon fit was so important to me!!! I absolutely love my decision and couldn’t be happier! The material is so soft and I love the relaxed fit of the shorts 💖 Shorts: ‘Shake It Out High-Rise Running Short 2.5’ (Galactic Colbalt). UK 10 ✨ My love for these shorts is ridiculous. I have them in every single colour! Top: ‘Swiftly Tech Cropped Short-Sleeve Shirt 2.0’ (Galactic Colbalt). UK 6.
When I tell you, I convinced myself for 10km that my family were around the corner…. I was DESPERATE to see them. My support network and the love I received yesterday from all of you is hands down what got me through 😭🤍 Head to toe @lululemon 🎽 ad
ad ~ T-2 days 🤯 I swear by these… Switching to a Therabody massage gun was honestly the best upgrade. I’ve built such a nice little routine around it - my post-run shower and massage time feels like a real self care treat 🤝 my Radox body wash might just be a new staple - it felt like a mini sanctuary in my bathroom 🫧 All the products I use are from @Boots UK - couldn’t recommend them more! Especially if you regularly deal with pain or muscle fatigue 🤍 When you download the free Therabody App, it even asks where you experience pain and what kind of workouts you do - there’s even a wheelchair option!!!! We LOVE exclusive brands that get it ✨

Let’s have a moment for @Liam Cavanagh excited lil run to the cabin 😂🥹 that boy melts my hearttttttt, I canneee cope
This little chat with myself really helped me. It was important I let out how I felt. I then reminded myself of how far I’ve come, that I’m doing it for those who can’t run and how grateful I am. Chatting to myself switched something in my mind and I felt so much stronger after this xxx
I look so happy !!! The most incredible day despite it being unbelievably hard 🥹🥹🥹 The running app I use is @Coopah Run Coach - two week free trial with code “PICKLES” 🩵
