The hangover to end all hangovers. Until the next one! Last night one bottle of wine turned into (ahem) more than one followed by dancing into the early hours of the morning and I woke up today having already hit half of my step count for the day! Not entirely sure what prompted it. I… Continue reading Hungover.

Run Up to Christmas 2018
What a great challenge this was! A brilliant way to round off a year full of running. The idea of the challenge is to set a target distance (50km, 100km, etc) and log those miles and kilometers in your own time between 1st and 25th of December. I set a target of 150km (about 93… Continue reading Run Up to Christmas 2018
Summer Running
Had me a blast! Unfortunately this time referring to ‘blast’ as in the destructive sense. Throughout April and May I was feeling inspired, energised and actually getting on with running a consistent schedule achieving slightly ahead of plan. The excitement of this and an upcoming event, the Maverick Race Gloucestershire on 30th June, encouraged me… Continue reading Summer Running
Brighton Marathon Weekend
Would you believe, even though it involved running a full 26.2 miles for the first time ever, a weekend in Brighton actually felt like a holiday. This may be a sign I need to get out more. It was fun though. Having first started running over 12 years ago I had so far only attempted… Continue reading Brighton Marathon Weekend

What’s been keeping me busy during May? First up the Oxford Town & Gown 10k (organised by Muscular Dystrophy UK). My reason for signing up to an event like this is to help keep me focused on including running in my regular training routine. Over the years I’ve noticed that of, all the different types… Continue reading Last Month’s Mischief: May

A year ago last week I visited Wellington, NZ for a few days. During my exploratory ramblings about the city I discovered there was such a thing as a Les Mills gym. Awesome. Especially love the paintwork on the outside of the building. Up until a week earlier I had been training for a… Continue reading Adventures in Wellington

Half Marathon Madness
I began running years ago as way to lose some weight and have stuck to it with varying degrees of enthusiasm since then. This year I have had very twitchy feet, and desire to get in better shape before my 30’s begin next year, so started pushing myself to increase both the distance and frequency… Continue reading Half Marathon Madness
Addicted. I’m a bit late to the game on this one but now totally hooked. I’ve got in the habit of tweaking the photos using another photo editing app, before sharing via Instagram, just to add add a bit more brightness and colour to them. Here are my Instagram photos. Follow me @invisiblegirl83 …
