What a fabulous day yesterday enjoying the beautiful sights of Paris at the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris another marathon in the bag and such fun making amazing memories with friends. We even stopped at 25.66 miles to get a selfie with the Effiel Tower behind us, had to be done 🀩.

Saw lots of Paris I had never seen before as a tourist like Chateau Vincennes and beautiful parks with tree lined roads. It was a warm very humid day and it was very well organised with buckets full of water to splash over yourself to keep cool every 5k. I got lots of video footage on the way round so will create a little reel, the music / entertainment and vibe as you go round was such fun!

LOVED it - our first bit of marathon tourism!

Waving goodbye to 2023 πŸ‘‹ and hello to 2024 πŸ‘‹ ! Here are a few memorable snaps from 2023, hard to choose as I had so many. I have been so lucky to get to the mountains a lot in 2023, I ran a marathon in April and have enjoyed many adventures with friends, family and clients. πŸ‘€ looking forward to 2024 and more adventures. πŸŽ‰

Looking for some walking motivation ?

πŸŽ„πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ I do Run up to Christmas every year as part of my running club team, you run or walk as many miles as you can between 1-24 December - it needs to be recorded on their website - I just link to Strava. Great motivation for getting moving during the festive season! πŸŽ„

Run Up to Christmas πŸ‘ˆ this is their page where you can get all info if up for it. I don’t get commission, I am just giving a nudge to people who want to get moving and fit for 2024, start early get those steps in and beat the Xmas Excess!! πŸŽ…

This year I even got the bobble hat πŸ‘‡πŸ˜œπŸŽ„!

Recent walk with these lovely ladies at the end of October. Heel was sore after needed a bit of stretching, it is taking a long time and I am soooo impatient 😬😐. Now I am having NHS physio only started this week it has been a bit of a wait. I have managed to run up to 5k which was last Sunday. My focus is getting running πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ distances again as I have a place in Paris Marathon in April 2024 and training starts in December. I need to build a lot of fitness back up, I have kept up with strength training once a week πŸ‹πŸ»β€β™€οΈ , physio says I need to do this twice a week. More walking to build back in to recovery. I am so looking forward to getting out in the mountains again and maybe even Dartmoor over the winter. I am going to have to watch the load on my foot during marathon training. Hope to be back soon!! πŸŽ’ πŸ₯Ύ
