Mandy's Marathon for Our Space

Mandy's Marathon for Our Space This is my record of running a marathon for Our Space. Find out more about Our Space here https://theatreroyal.com/take-part/adults-and-communities/

Our Space is a theatre project for adults who may have faced challenges including homelessness, mental health issues, offending, substance misuse or they may feel isolated for some other reason...

My last post (cue for a song!)

I did it! In spite of my pulled muscle that has been majorly sore for a week and in spite of having cramp from mile 15!

I set myself the target of between 4 & a half hours and 5, and I came in on 4 hrs 59 mins and 55 seconds. Cutting it fine.

So far I’ve raised well over £3k for Our Space including gift aid! Yesterday so many people messaged me! I was really moved!

I will now resume my swimming career!!!!

So week 16 started so well, with nice speedy runs…

Unfortunately this morning I pulled a muscle! I can’t believe it with one week to go amd I’m hoping a bit of tlc will get me to the start line…

But I’m still going to do even if I have to hop!

It’s long run Saturday! And it was okay. Two - yep two - weeks to go!! I’m tapering now and although it wasn’t the smoothest run, I thought it was okay considering the elevation and considering I started at twenty to seven!!!

And then we went to Trebarwith strand so here’s a gratuitous picture of the dog. Sea is massive!

If you’re the person who wants to support me but haven’t yet managed to get your purse/wallet and the link in the same place at the same time, now is your chance!! Runnnnnnn

Long run Saturday - turned out to be not that long run Saturday - after being in four (let’s say five) cities this week. Manchester/Plymouth/London/Leeds/Hull - I could barely lift my feet up this morning! Struggled on for 10 (when it should have been 21) then just threw in the towel! Poor sleep! Hey ho - runs 1, 2 and 3 were okay, this week especially 1…

There’s 3 weeks to go to the marathon and I’m hoping the months I’ve trained will pay off in the end in spite of today’s failure!

Long run Saturday - surprisingly enjoyable 15 mile run (apart from the last two miles!) in Hull. Went past Cornwall st. Not quite the same!
