A run in sun- FINALLY!


I'm sorry I have not been very good with keeping you all up to date on my training. So far, I've ran in some warm up events with other teachers, Helen Exler, Laken Randhawa and Raquel Porto. We have run a 10k in Regents Park, an event organised by the British Heart Foundation and a 5k night run in Battersea Park organised by energizer. 

I've just come back from a 4.5k run. It is such a beautiful day. Finally I get to run in the sun 😊 I think my Irish skin will be needing sunscreen soon if this sunshine continues. 

Tomorrows training: spin and swim and "rest" day on Monday. 

I hope the sun holds out until tomorrow for  the Southbank sevens training session at Paddington Rec.  

Enjoy the sunshine everyone :-)

Welcome :-)

Welcome to my running blog!

I have decided to set myself  a running challenge this year- to run a series of 5 and 10k race for life runs which add up to the sum of 100k. 

Race for life runs are organised by Cancer Research UK and take place all over the UK to raise money for life saving research. 

I will use this blog to keep you all updated on my training and add the names of people who have decided to come run along side me. 

Southbank ladies you are invited to come run alongside me- DON'T WORRY!!!! you don't have to commit to 100k, a 5k or 10k is fine, or as many as you wish. 

I would love if I had someone to run each race with me. My race numbers came today- all 15 of them!!!
