A great snap of our morning in the mountains from my friend Abby πŸ”οΈ

Spring was springing yesterday which means it’s time to enjoy the mountains once again. The last few weeks I’ve been enjoying hiking with baba on my back, or slow runs with the buggy. Sometimes it’s nice to just enjoy the outdoors without any particular training agenda. After a few weeks I generally feel like adding in some longer/harder running- but for now I’m enjoying a slower, mindful approach to being outside. Above all else, spending time in nature is healing for the mind, body and spirit πŸ’œ

Have a great week everyone!

Tollymore Trail Ultramarathon - 1st lady, 5th overall, new ladies course record holder, with 22 mins off the previous course record πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Even as I write this it feels totally surreal to say. I started running back in 2020 during covid, and for the first few years I was simply trying to finish races without a DNF. I didn’t really have much confidence in myself as a runner. I thought because of my scoliosis and fused spine, I would always be a pretty average runner.

Fast forward 4 years, I gave birth to our beautiful baby Easkey 14 months ago and it’s like a fire has been lit underneath me. Once I was cleared to run 12 weeks post c-section, I was more motivated than ever to run πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Now there have been so many ups and downs in my journey since getting back into running, I got completely floored with a hip injury back in March which took me out for some time.

And my running training has been far from typical- most of my runs happen with baby Easkey in the buggy and my dog Percy strapped around my waist running through Killarney national park, or the Gap of Dunloe. But to be honest, I’ve enjoyed every minute of it. And Easkey has gotten used to buggy running from a very young age, and now it’s just part of our routine πŸ₯°

So I guess what I’m trying to say is- scoliosis warriors, postpartum mamas- you can do hard thingsπŸ’ͺ
Believe in yourself, put in the work, keep being consistent and you will eventually get there πŸ’œ

A special thankyou to my guy Conor for always supporting and believing in me, the amazing nanna D for looking after Easkey while I race, our wonderful babysitter Tina for also taking such great care of Easkey, and of course- my 2 special running companions- Easkey and Percy- who are always there by my side- rain or shine πŸ’œπŸ₯ΉπŸ™

And thankyou so much to you all for the beautiful messages of love and support. What a beautiful way to finish 2024! I am so greatful πŸ™

Glen of Aherlow Ultra Trail Run πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ 1st Lady home

It was one of those days where everything seemed to align perfectly to have a good race- the weather was amazing for running- overcast with a small bit of wind, nutrition and hydration were on point (thankyou for the gels 😘), my legs felt strong and I was well rested going into it.

I absolutely loved the course- super runnable- mostly forest tracks and trails with just enough rocks and roots to keep it interesting 🌳

Absolutely delighted with how the race went! One year postpartum and I feel more motivated than ever to run πŸ’œ

Logistically it takes a whole lot more planning postpartum to make these days happen- I am still breastfeeding so I can’t be away from baba for too long. This day in particular looked like this:

4:45am Wake up and feed Easkey
5:15am 2 hr drive to race
8am- Start race
3pm- Finish race
3:30pm- take shower and hand express milk (after 7 hrs racing my chest felt uncomfortably full)
4pm- Drive home
8:30pm- feed Easkey and put to bed

And of course I didn’t do this on my own. Thankyou to my man Conor and our amazing childminder Tina for allowing me to go and do this. Feeling greatful, thankful and blessed πŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œ

32 πŸ’œ The year that gave me the greatest gift of all- It made me a Mammy to Easkey πŸ’œ
Here are some of my favourite moments from the year-

- Easkey and Mammy (and Percy) going for a hike in Ravensdale forest

- The day Easkey was born. I only got to meet her several hours after my c-section because she was rushed to NICU

-Mammy and Daddy getting to hold Easkey for the first time

-Christmas with Nanna Dee. I will be forever greatful to all the love and support from my Mam this year πŸ™πŸ™

-A cute Christmas moment πŸ’œ

- Easkey and Percy. I spent much of my time with them this year. My besties πŸ’œ

-Nursing baby Easkey. This is what I spent most of my time doing this year πŸ’œ

-Fathers day hike with Easkey, Mammy and Percy

-Hiking Strickeen with some clients and friends πŸ’œ

-A rare occasion getting to go for a trail run with my bestie Emma- I miss her πŸ₯Ή

Looking forward to seeing what 33 will bring πŸ₯³
