#Juneathon Day 21 – #WeRunLondon (and Day 22)
Well, I know this one is technically a day late, but yesterday was a long, long day and I figured it wouldn’t hurt to combine 2 days into one! After being sensible Gem on Saturday and resting my back a little, I headed off to London to spend the night in advance of taking part…

Trowse 10k 2014 – My Slowest 10k Yet!
Ah, it must be Easter Sunday, because once again I’m up at stupid o’clock in the morning to run the ridiculously early starting Trowse 10k. It doesn’t even start at 11am like lots of races. It starts at 9am. They don’t send your number out in advance either so you can just bimble up at…

Trowse 10k 2013
Well, I made it back alive. I’ll be honest, it felt like touch and go at times! When I signed up for the Trowse 10k I had visions of a beautiful spring morning countryside jaunt. In reality of course it’s bitterly cold, in fact there were snow flurries part way round, and the clocks went…

Marriotts Way 10k 2012
Well, that’s my first ever 10k race over and done with, and I had no need to be nervous at all! I carefully laid everything out the night before. I have some new capris from Thoosa, but thought it best to stick with what I know on the day. I shall try out the new…
