Few snaps from our first half marathon, and possibly last🙈😅 #royalcanalrun #21k #halfmarathon #cantwalktoday
Very disappointing day out yesterday. On the road at 5.30am to make the long trip to Longford for their Royal Canal Marathon, an 8 looped 5k course. Lovely route, so well organised, and was feeling strong in the legs and head....which hadn't happened in awhile. Unfortunately I couldn't predict the stomach bug that took over, too many cramps and hopping ditches meant I had to pull the plug at 13.5......in second place :( At least I know I can improve now for #EdinburghMarathon in 5 weeks #running #runner #training #marathon #trainingrun #learnfromit #takethepositives #Longfordmarathon #wasn'ttobe #headgood #staypositive #onwardsandupwards #disappointment #feelingstrong
Myself and Dan after we did the half marathon! #dantheman #halfmarathon #royalcanalrun
Didn't plan on finishing but the body felt good at 30km. Thunderstruck came on at 36km so had to finish it #marathon #ironmantraining #running #imwales #ac⚡️dc
Because one believes in oneself, one doesn't try to convince others. Because one is content with oneself, one doesn't need others' approval. Because one accepts oneself, the whole world accepts him or her ~ Lao Tzu
