March 2018: The Big Half

26th October 2017 I lost my mum to cancer. It was a time of so many emotions I decided I needed a focus in my life and do something I’ve never done before. I asked my friend and forever support through all last years ups and downs Karen to write me a training plan to help me train with a purpose and with a goal. I never follow anything but I promised I would follow the plan. It was a new experience for me. It was stressful at times and it was difficult to squeeze in with coaching. I then fell ill after Christmas and was put on antibiotics and another inhaler. I had to come off my plan 😞. Guilt then hits and frustration I’m not keeping on my plan! acceptance I had to park the plan until I was better. End of Jan I managed to hop back onto the plan. I never thought I would like the structure but at the moment it helps. Today I completed The Big Half in memory of my beautiful, brave mum. She has left such a positive legacy to grab life and live to the full. There is no rehearsal, this is it. Take it, use it, enjoy the ride.
