My target 10 mi

Coming back slowly

Although I’ve steadily kept the miles coming slowly, I’ve been hit with back to back flu viruses which the second one was brutal in the chest. I feel like I’m coming over the hill with these now. 

Next week I intend on hitting around 30 miles, however the four weeks after (touch wood) I won’t be running too much as I’ll be on a course. I will still be training daily, but it will be more strength and whole body exercises as opposed to running. 

Mid March I’ll be upping the running to 40 miles a week and 50 by April! 

First run of the year

This was my fist run since signing up. Plan was for a gentle 5k and I manage to stick to the plan. 

I’ve been struggling quite badly for almost a month with the flu bug that’s hit a lot of people, and annoyingly I would say I’m only at about 70% 

To add to things I’ve had a calf and hamstring niggle which still hasn’t gone away. 

This is my last run for about 10 days now as I am off to Austria for a weeks skiing (the legs will be getting plenty of exercise) and then I’ll be heading back to Scotland.

Don’t think I’ve quit because I’ve not ran for a week or so… this was planned 

Support my Race to Remember

This year I will be taking part in Race to Remember to raise vital funds for life-changing mental health treatment for veterans.

I only have one ankle after having my right ankle fused  I was told I’d never run again, so I want to prove people wrong  

Running has saved my life through the dark times, so this will be my biggest challenge yet   

I will be raising money for Healing Military Minds, which raises money for Combat Stress  

Combat Stress is the UK's leading charity for veterans' mental health. For over a century, they've helped former servicemen and women deal with issues like trauma, anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. Today, they provide support to veterans from every service and every conflict. 

I’m taking on Race to Remember to help take vital steps towards ensuring veterans can get the support they need.

Thank you so much for your support.
