Fastest 5k and fastest 2 miles this morning. My first mile is always slow while my legs try and figure out what the hell we are doing and why. But anyway yey me! #runnersofinstagram #ukrunchat #ukrunners #lonelygoatrc #joyfulrunners https://www.instagram.com/p/B8tdC6wAwyh/?igshid=17huhdnvnq77a

Just realised that because of the days I ran last week and this week I've ran 21.4 miles in the past 7 days. Most I've ever ran in a week in my life 😂 #ukrunchat #ukrunners #joyfulrunners #joyfulrunnersrc https://www.instagram.com/p/B7Gv1u_gp67/?igshid=x2dg10s0hsy9

According to Garmin my vo2 max is now excellent, hopefully means I'm less likely to keel over suddenly! Also means I will still be able to pogo on a dance floor for years to come 😂 #ukrunchat #joyfulrunners #joyfulrunnersrc #lonelygoatrc #lonelygoatrunningclub #running #runner #runnersofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/B68bwLCAI_Z/?igshid=1qftxflv0nzin

My running goals this year are simple especially as I'm recovering from a major surgery (hysterectomy) and have yet to get my hormone levels right post surgery. I simply want to be healthy and to enjoy running. Of course it would be great to get faster or go farther but my main aim is simply to love the freedom and the mental/physical health benefits of running. Excitingly my little running group on Strava "The Joyful Runners" already has 60 people in it, it's lovely to have strava friends who also want to revel in the joy of running. #joyfulrunners #joyfulrunnersrc #runchat #runchatuk #ukrunchat #runner #run #lonelygoatrc #lonelygoatrunningclub https://www.instagram.com/p/B66C5W_A634/?igshid=1m1dt4z77wijh

Forgot to put the actual deets on the last post 😱 pleased with 4 miles at just over an 11 min mile, especially at 3 months post hysterectomy ukrunchat #ukrunners #running #running #joyfulrunners #joyfulrunnersclub #lonelygoatrc #lonelygoatrunningclub #northeastrunners #hysterectomy #oophorectomy #hysterectomyrecovery https://www.instagram.com/p/B6v63iTAI6B/?igshid=1s0er161ygqdh

Smidgen faster on a little 4 mile trot up and down the railway tracks. Hip flexor still niggling so may play it a bit safer on Thursdays run. #ukrunchat #ukrunners #running #running #joyfulrunners #joyfulrunnersclub #lonelygoatrc #lonelygoatrunningclub #northeastrunners https://www.instagram.com/p/B6vLZVlA_6x/?igshid=dmbgloddzfl1

This was a tough one, I still have days at 3 months post hysterectomy where I'm super tired, today was one of them. My hip flexor was niggling , I couldn't find hard sand the wind was against me half the way and oh my the rocky bits and mounds of seaweed. But oh my gosh it was glorious and I loved every minute, called it a day at 4 miles as I don't want to aggravate my leg. Jasper was of course living his best life. Happy running today joyful runners! #ukrunchat #joyfulrunners #joyfulrunnersclub #lonelygoatrc #lonelygoatrunningclub #running #runnngdog #ukrunners #hysterectomy https://www.instagram.com/p/B6qJrukAtof/?igshid=njbxjnlym7eb
