I`m back baby!
For the last few weeks, I have felt more `with it` mentally. Ideas are flowing (and I can remember them!). Outside work, I have felt motivated to work out, study, and write some blog posts. Running is getting easier and I am working past my negative experiences with it from the last few years (hello incontinence!).
This reawakening could be down to several factors:
💫 Loosing 10 pounds (with the help of Mounjaro). No more food noise telling me I am hungry all the time.
💫 @sentrolabs HARMONY supplements #gifted provide extra mental clarity
💫 Less stress at my day job. After over 2 years of uncertainty, I have strong deputies in place. I actually leave on time now.
💫 Adding extra workouts, like my runs and an additional strength training session per week too.
💫 Passing my RAnTech at work. No more studying required!
💫 Going to sleep a little earlier and making such I take my chlonidine by 7pm so I can sleep without overheating.
Who knows exactly what is going on? I just hope it continues. Onwards!

Another Sunday morning run with @ohladiesrc but I forgot to take a group photo. Running with faster people will make me faster, or that is what I am trying to believe. Sunny skies with a light wind made for comfy running.
I had wanted to run 5k this morning but instead I went back to bed. Full day of rest was a good option too. Tonight, the massage gun will be in use.
Training plans for the rest of the week:
Tues- 2 spin class at @kingscross.fitness
Wed- Bootcamp and spin class at @pumpgymshatfield
Thurs- morning run with @ohladiesrc
Fri- rest
Weekend long run should be 8+ miles in prep for @brolobet_broloppet_2025 . Not long now! And I am happy it will count for an extra raffle entry towards @wmmajors Boston Marathon #score

Had some time to flex this morning. Slowly, I am building my routine to lift twice a week and run. My half marathon is only a few weeks away and while my mileage hasn`t been great, I hope that the strength training will save me from a DNF. 🏅
Women- remember strength training helps your bones stay strong. No one likes a broken bone. My website has free 10 min routines that require little to no equipment. Soup tins or a rucksack with some books work when it comes to adding a bit of weight. DM me if you have any questions. 💪🏻

Sunday morning run with @ohladiesrc gang this morning. They are so patient with me as I try to keep up. New route today means I found a pub that James and I can cycle to, plus new trails around Hatfield Park.
This weekend didn`t have any trains going into London so I was lucky to also hang out with the OH ladies yesterday at parkrun and then bottomless brunch. It is wonderful to start creating new friendships with some people local to where I live.
Sunday 5 miles after a few weeks of 5ks is a good build up. Need to do 7 next weekend and 10 the weekend after so I am ready for my half (which I know is going to be a struggle). Should have put the training plan in the diary from day 1. Another running lesson learned.
Did you brunch or run this weekend? Perhaps both?

Last Friday, I was lucky enough to attend a @skipress event at @thesnowcentre in Hemel Hempstead. While it wasn`t easy to get to by rail and foot, the cool temps and fresh snow made it worth it!
Plus I saw Stephanie from @springproutdoor a d made friends with the @ospreyeurope reps.
Soon, I will share my blog post about this indoor ski slope. If you have any specific questions, let me know in the comments below and I will be sure to answer them.
Have you ever tried skiing indoors?

If you have a summer holiday planned, look no further than @thegalleriahatfield for all your shopping needs. Did you know it has several outlet shops and a free bookstore too?
Open 8pm Monday-Friday (as well as being open on the weekends), you can find clothes, shoes, sunscreen, snacks, and sunglasses all in one place.
It has been super handy for us when we need something last minute before a trip. I dread going to Oxford Circus as it is just too crowded these days.
What is the best thing you have purchased at The Galleria?

Happy to say I just completed my first week back at the gym. And it feels so good.
Six weeks post-procedure with a bonus week off for my rotator cuff. Now I am back teaching 4 classes a week. Of course, there is a bit of an adjustment to my sleep schedule as I get used to exercise again but it is worth it.
Plus my half marathon is 2 weeks away. For the last few weeks, I have been run-walking with a friend. All the London Marathon posts have inspired me to keep at it, even though it is going to be tough making it over that bridge in 3 hours.
Having a race in the diary helps keep me motivated so let me know what races you suggest for the autumn or winter in the comments below.
