You have to make a decision about what day is best (usually on the weekend for most people) and then what time is going to work for you.

I mainly do long runs on a Sunday and work backwards from needing to be home by 0820am latest in order to grab a drink and get changed so I can shove the kids in the buggy and get down to Junior Parkrun for 9am and Craig goes out for his run.

For me there is no such thing as a rest after a long run because I've got kids so you just have to suck it up and get on with a full day of parenting ahead ๐Ÿ˜‚

Jogging down to parkrun, going around it with Ava and getting home gives me another 6km too โœŒ๏ธ

So if you see me at junior parkrun and I stink and look like I've been dragged through a hedge backwards you now know why ๐Ÿ˜†

Seems as I don't own any yet and it's now 6 weeks away I really should start thinking about all the kit we will need!

Max didn't understand why I wasn't picking what colour I wanted ๐Ÿ˜‚

Tried on:
1. Hooka speedgoat
2. Hooka challenger
3. Asics Trabuco
4. Asics blazeblast
5. Saucony ?

Leaning towards the new out Asics Blazeblast as they seemed super comfy and are more a hybrid trainer so I'll get plenty of use out of them.

Any thoughts?

I've not clocked up as many miles as hoped ๐Ÿซฃ

July 219.3km
August 244.3km

When we signed up I had already started a training plan for the Torbay Half Marathon, which is next month. I figured I'd still do that training but basically do extra miles on top (which may or may not be a smart thing to do ๐Ÿคซ).

I'm now seeking someone that would like to do a night time run with me, so I can at least say I've tried it once ๐Ÿ˜‚ I know at 2am in the morning it's going to get tough mentally.

Started in 2011 by an American called Lars, a backyard ultra is a 4.16 mile or 6.7km route that is run every hour on the hour until only 1 person is left completing the final loop. This has no time cut off and has been known to go on for literally days!

I (and I should mention I'm as always dragging Craig along for the ride, or run ๐Ÿ˜‚) taking part in the Lone Wolf Backyard Ultra, which is a 24 hour event. So every hour for 24 hours a 6.7km loop must be ran and finished.

If at 24 hours there is more than 1 person left, those left race to the finish line to be crowned the winner!

My big goal is to run the full 24 laps - which will equate to 100 miles.

Do you think I'll do it?!

I've decided to challenge myself in more ways than one here. I literally hate videoing myself, I feel sorry for all of you that have to listen to my voice on a regular basis ๐Ÿ˜‚ but I wanted to start documenting a bit more of my journey and training for my first ever 24 hour back yard ultra.

So if this is at all interesting to you, stick around. And if you are fed up of seeing all my posts about running, well you know what to do ๐Ÿ˜

Signed up on the 28th June

Race starts on Saturday 10th October

3rd month in a row for a 10k. This time we were running solo (e.g no buggies).

I was secretly aiming for 45 mins which would have been a new PB, but instead, fired by the excitement of watching Max's first race and a pre workout drink, I only went and smashed 43:25 ๐Ÿคฏ

Overtaking Craig on the 4th lap was potentially my favourite part of the run ๐Ÿ˜†

Already wondering how on earth I'll ever beat that time ๐Ÿ˜‚

Craig 44:10
Sarah 43:25

8/12 months completed ๐Ÿฅ‡
