Not exactly sure how that happened taking 4 minutes off my previous best and felt great until mile 12/13! That was my weekend, what about yours?

Waiting for the kettle to boil ❤️

So one week down, and not exactly the start I wanted. Training wasn't great last week, but managed to finish off on Saturday with over 15 miles, so happy with that. 1lb off, despite being really good and avoiding refined carbs all week (bar as fuel to Saturday's run) but 1lb is 1lb I guess. This week started with a smash, kettlebells at 6:30am Monday, 5km in a personal best for that course at 6:30pm, topped off with a killer Bootcamp session. So this morning focused on the arms, before hill sprints tonight. I will get a half marathon under 2 hours if it kills me!! And it may well do that 😂

Accountability, that's what I need this blog to do, for a few weeks at least. DAY 3 of the training campaign, getting changed for a run, almost wanted the traffic to be bad so I missed training 🤔 not good. Considering Day 1 i was forced to quit my training due to inability to breathe (getting over a cough/cold), I really needed to run today. But as always post run I feel great!! Easy Miles not speedwork which I should have been doing, but at least I got out there. Also have done 2 days of kettlebells and an arm blaster, so looking forward to yoga and a rest day tomorrow. Saturday will be a lovely (!) 12-13 miles of random running between various events, a great benchmark of the distance. Boring post, I know. But needs must sometimes. At least I livened it up with my knickers ❤️

Zip me up scotty I'm off for a run ❤️

Happy New Year!! I know it's the 3rd but it's the first day back to work, the first day of my next 4 week training plan for yet another half marathon. I'm not about New Years resolutions, I found in 2016 that setting specific goals and taking part in challenges suits me best. In 2017 I will continue to challenge my fitness, starting with a half marathon in 5 weeks time. So today starts 4 weeks of clean eating (ish) 4-5 lbs off would be nice. Dragged out the kettlebells after 2 weeks of rest, and I'm back on it. Hopefully I'll be able to be accountable here. When I remember to blog!!! Have a great 2017, make your dreams or goals come true ❤️
