On the home page of my website is my mission statement that I want to teach clients to balance work, life, fitness, food and fun. This is something I work on too so I thought I would share a bit of my regular life in today’s post rather than the fitness side.
At the end of August, I shared in an Instagram post I would be going alcohol free in September and October to help my marathon training and to hopefully reduce excess calories. In order to make it achievable (hurray for SMART goals), I gave myself two times when I could drink within that timespan. The first was my 10th wedding anniversary in September and the other was my husband’s 40th birthday in October. Being British, drinking is a big part of his culture (not to say it isn’t in America, but I do think we tend to favour eating over drinking in most celebrations). I would always choose dessert over a drink anyways so I didn’t think the challenge would be too hard. Although I am discovering the late summer weather is making it quite tough to stick to my word!
James and I were married on a Friday afternoon in Upstate New York in 2010. Our 10th anniversary was a Thursday night in early September. I had run home from work and James had gone on a bike ride with some friends that afternoon. We didn’t do presents or cards that morning because I am usually headed out the door by the time James is getting up. For the last 10 years (much to James’ chagrin), we have been inspired by the anniversary themes when choosing gifts. I told him this is the last year we have to do presents. We have learned that these forced gifts don’t always work out. Here are a few examples:
1st anniversary is traditionally paper– James tried to purchase a Liberty voucher for me because it was my new favourite shop in London. Unfortunately their vouchers were coins! I did end up with a lovely necklace though.
6th anniversary is iron- James and I are both avid readers and apparently not very creative. We order the same iron bookmark from the same Etsy shop with slightly different inscriptions. The ironic part is that neither of us ever use them because they are too bulky and heavy.
Tenth anniversary is tin and this was so tricky! Most of the gifts I could find were lovey-dovey tin signs covered in hearts, which is not our style at all. Another popular option seemed to be tins of mints or tea, which was a little under my budget. We tend to be practical so when James suggested he get me something not made of tin, I was a little relieved! It definitely took some of the pressure off.
What did we end up giving each other? I got James:
Personalized tin enamel mugs for camping. These I found on Not on The High Street. There was one flaw I noticed then I opened them up. James has always been Mr. Millington and then became Dr. Millington in 2007. It felt a little silly to have his establishment date of 2010 but when paired with mine, it looks cute. To make these mugs more accessible for camping and hiking, I added on carbineers to clip to rucksacks or picnic blankets.
Custom framed artwork from Etsy. What did couples do before Etsy? To keep with the theme of 10 and the fact that James loves maps, I chose a mountain landscape from the DreamSeizeCherish Etsy shop with different destinations we have travelled together over the years. It was easy to order, and when placed in a wooden frame (I could not find a tin one!) it will look great on our wall. To make it more personalized, I changed the lovey example quote to one from Winnie the Pooh (Tao of Pooh is one of James’ favourite books).
Personalized champagne bottle.* This got the best reaction from James of them all. He is incredibly hard to buy for because he is practical, picky with clothes, and can really get himself anything that he really wants. When Say it With Champers reached out to me, I thought this would be a fabulous idea. At the time, we weren’t exactly sure how we would be celebrating so I figured it would be a nice treat with dinner if we ate at home or if we went away for the weekend (and we could use our tin mugs!). The bottle quickly arrived after I approved the design proof. The bottle was inserted into an inflated bottle case and then in a cardboard box. It fit perfectly so I just put a bow on the box rather than waste wrapping paper (we like to be environmentally friendly when possible). With a large clumsy puppy tearing around, I didn’t want to risk the bottle breaking if I put it in a gift bag.
As soon as James opened it, he laughed. I had sent a selection of photos of the two of us and Say it With Champers were quick to respond and advise which would look best on the bottle. Apparently they made the right choice! Because of the personalized labels, there wasn’t much space on the label to learn about the champagne itself. The label indicated it was Brut so we knew it would be dry rather than sweet. According to Say it With Champers website, their champagne is either sourced from Philizot & Fils or produced by their own family in Festigny, both in Champagne regions of France. I think we Philizot & Fils and we loved the taste, easily finishing bottle with our dinner that evening. The empty bottle is now placed prominently on our dining room shelf.
James got me:
A ginormous bouquet of flowers. It is quite rare that I receive cut flowers. James feels they are not sustainable and therefore prefers to gift potted plants. On our recent camping trip, we bought a very nice (small) vase and I think he had hoped to put these flowers in the vase. James admits he “might have gotten carried away” when we realized all of our vases (we have three) are small. Even after cutting the flowers down, they ended up going in the dog toy storage container. The lilies are still blooming and looking fresh. Flowers are something I tend to go to for self care so it has been lovely having them around the house. Luckily, Maple has only knocked them over once.
Vouchers for driving lessons. During lockdown, I struggled to take my inflatable stand up paddleboard to the Royal Docks. The kit is very heavy and I technically wasn’t supposed to be on the Tube. Also, I think James would appreciate a back up driver when we are trips and he wants to head to the pub. I am a mediocre driver in the US, where the roads are wide and straight. I dread to think hope I will do on London’s streets. Stay tuned as I am sure I will share my adventures on Instagram.
A car shaped cookie cutter. He tried to get some tin in there. We are fairly certain it is not tin though. You may not know that I love to bake (yes, I don’t just eat raw cookie dough). I have a fairly large collection of cookie cutters and would make them more often if I had a large table or counter to roll the dough out on. As a Christmas tradition, we always make a variety of cookies, including cut outs.
If you ask me, I think we ended our anniversary gift giving on a high note with this year’s gifts. I don’t want to say we are settled into married life, but we know each other well enough to get practical gifts (our flat is too small for more crap) but can still surprise each other too. I put a lot of time and effort into this last anniversary gift and now need to start over for his 40th birthday next month. A personalized bottle of champagne might be a good start.
Come back next week to read about our active staycation in Oxfordshire where Mollie’s Motel and Diner was our base.
We look so young!
Thanks to Say it With Champers for the complimentary bottle. All opinions are honest and our own.

After George Floyd’s death, I felt so helpless. As a white woman living in England, there wasn’t much I could do it seemed to bring about change in my home country. I made many donations to support causes that aligned with my beliefs- education about racism, counselling for trauma experienced by ethnic minorities, and supporting legal teams to help bring about justice. A few of my friends took part in online panel discussions and I eagerly tuned in to learn more their personal experiences.
I took to books to educate myself further, learning more about American and British history and how racism was an underlying current. The non-fiction books I read were White Fragility and Why I’m No Longer Talking To White People About Race. Natives and How to Be Antiracist to add to the list now that I have finished what I originally purchased.
While Gone with the Wind is fictitious (and seriously long!), I had already started it during this time and followed it up with Queenie, The Tubman Command, and If Beale Street Could Talk. There are so many more books I want to read, questions I want to ask. A black man was killed by police recently in my hometown, sparking protests and even getting a mention from Trevor Noah. Fuelling this fire of unease is the US presidential election where both old white male candidates were raised in a different time (for example, when segregation was legal).
In an effort to amplify black Voices and help drive a change in America’s leadership, I am joining the virtual event Womxn Run the Vote. Oiselle USA is organising a #WomxnRunTheVote relay to benefit Black Voters Matter. Last day to register is 17 September and relay starts 21 September. You don’t have to run to take part. You can walk, cycle, swim, row, etc. to clock up your miles. While I considered making my own team, but I thought it would be nicer to support others. Aptly, there is a team called Happy Runners (close runner up was team Run for Cookies), so please join the Happy Runners team if you would like to support this great cause. The team will need to split up the miles (680 in total) so let’s get registering asap. Sadly, the unique custom event gaiter is sold out and there isn’t a medal, but there are a few online events to attend as a benefit of registering. That means that $23 of your $30 goes right to Black Votes Matter. That is a pretty good trade off if you ask me.
Here is the official blurb about the challenge:
A virtual race for real change, Womxn Run the Vote is a 680 mile virtual relay from Atlanta to Washington DC.
This virtual course takes runners on an empowering journey from the Martin Luther King Jr. Historic Site in Atlanta to the Martin Luther King Jr. National Memorial in DC. Along the route, you will travel on the US Civil Rights Trail and follow in the footsteps of generations of activists.
A portion of the proceeds from this event will go to support the Black Voters Matter Fund, an organization whose goal is to increase power in marginalized, predominantly Black communities through effective voting, which allows a community to determine its own destiny.
Designed to be accessible for as many people as possible, this event allows you to run, walk, ride (or any of 80 other activities) and then log your activity and see yourself move on our map and leaderboards. You will be able to see a Google street view of your virtual locale and then cheer your real fellow teammates in the chat. Learn more about the activists and change makers that helped shape the modern civil rights movement with our interactive maps.
Looking for a team to join? If you search #WomxnRunTheVote on Instagram or Twitter, you will see info about teams with open spots.
Leave a comment below when you have registered so I cheer you on. Let’s run together to get more people registered to vote in the USA to make a big impression through voting in the upcoming elections and improve lives of American citizens.

After drifting through lockdown without a goal, I was super excited to sign up for the Authentic Athens Marathon (gifted entry). Six weeks into my training and it is going well so far. First off, I am hitting the miles, having skipped only two runs so far because I was too tired (thanks to Maple and learning I cannot bike commute all the time). The training plan I chose includes four runs a week with two recovery days that can alternatively be for cross training. This aspect I am still working on. If you have been following me on Instagram, you will know that I haven’t been great about completing my physiotherapy. Strength is critical for runners, especially those who run long distances. In every marathon I have ran, I always wish I had committed to a strength training program. It has taken me six weeks, but now that I have settled into a routine with work and training, I have figured out how I can get my strength sessions in. I just need to hit the gym after work with my Function360 physio plan (gifted). I swear lockdown has used up most of my brain’s problem-solving skills!
Sunday long runs have now hit double digits (which I am enjoying) and Thursdays are meant to be hill reps as of last week. Speed sessions and hills sometimes aggravate my Achilles, so I am taking these with easy effort for now. I have also been trying out a few different running shoes to help me manage the miles and I will be sharing my thoughts on these different trainers later. Actually doing my physiotherapy should help stabilise my ankles and build up additional muscular support. I am very happy that only in the last week has the pain around my bone spur and surrounding tendons become a bit uncomfortable. There are medicinal frozen peas to ice it with and I am trying to stretch more.
With ten weeks left to go of my training, I am anxiously watching the news for updates on the UK quarantine list. My trip is with Sport Tours International (#iboughtit) who offer an excellent refund package if the race is cancelled. So much can happen between now and then in terms of my health, the training, and global infection rates that I am trying to stay positive and focused on my goal. Other races in my diary for the autumn have recently been cancelled on short notice, such as Swim Serpentine, but there are a few more to go before the marathon. Due to Swim Serpentine, my cross training so far has included weekly swims and paddleboarding sessions. Now that the water is getting colder and I no longer need to swim two miles at the end of the month, I have more time to work on developing strength to balance my running.
Overall, things are good in running land. I just need to keep riding the wave for 10 more weeks. Easy, right? I have run many marathons before and know what it takes. I have also a better understanding of my foot injuries and should be able to manage them. To mix things up a bit with my training, this weekend I am taking part in One Grateful Run.
One Grateful Run has invited a limited number of runners to take part in their 24 hour event in Essex. Others are encouraged to take part virtually. Starting off with a 5K and then running 1 mile every hour, the run is meant to focus you on affirmations of goodness through running a marathon in one day’s time. By sending out positive vibes into the world, we can tune in to our aspirations and desires of happiness. If you decide to take part (please do!), be sure to tag @1gratefulrun to show your support. This is the inaugural event, but I think it will grow quickly. It totally aligns with my ethos and I am blessed to be taking part (thanks to Elle for connecting me with the organisers).
I have started making a list of the things I am grateful for. What would be on your’s?

This is the last in my guest post series by my friend, Matt. Lockdown inspired him to become a runner and he even ran an ultra for fun. This is his account of the second half of his 4x4x48 challenge.
Run 7: Friday 26 June @ 8pm
Music: Deetron essential mix
Finally the heat had subsided a bit and I had some cloud cover to run in. I made the decision that I needed to slow down, so I set off with the aim of running at 6.00 per km. Yet again my pacing was awful and I kept seeing on my watch that I was running at 5.35 per km or even quicker. I felt good though and it took several kilometres for my quad to start tightening up again.
When I got home I made some proper food – salmon, potatoes and peas. I’d been existing mainly on hydration drinks, chocolate covered almonds, and protein bars for several hours at this point (apart from the rice for lunch). Maybe it wasn’t a good option, or maybe the day was just catching up with me, but I felt awful for a few hours. I’d caught the sun (despite applying suncream before every run) and my heart rate was definitely elevated.
We opened a door as the house was still very hot, and I added some ice to my water. I also tried to drink more hydration fluid in case I was low on calories or salt (it has 60g carbs in a 500ml bottle). At 11.30 it was time to start the routine again – foam roller, warm up, stretch then go.
Run 8: Saturday 27 June @ 12am
Music Deetron essential mix
Having been through such a rough patch between runs, I expected this one to be painful and set off again to target 6.00 per km. Unfortunately about 1km into the run my FitBit just switched itself off, but luckily I had decided to run the same route as run 3 and so I knew exactly where 4 miles ended.
Whilst it started off a bit tough, I actually got into the run and rolled along at somewhere around 5.45 per km pace. As I came into the final 800m I could hear the Deetron remix of Every Inch by George Fitzgerald (amazing tune) emerging in my headphones and it gave me a genuine lift. It was probably just psychological, but I actually felt quite strong running the last few hundred metres and felt like I was finishing the bad patch.
Same stretching routine when I got home, a quick shower, toast, peanut butter and jam, and off to bed hoping to get a couple of decent hours of sleep before the alarm at 3.30am.
Run 9: Saturday 27 June @ 4am
Music: Maceo Plex essential mix (2015)
The alarm was not a pleasant sound at 3.30am and again it felt like I had only had a few minutes sleep, however I think I must have slept pretty solidly from the moment my head hit the pillow. One of the most difficult parts about this challenge was having to be so purposeful about body preservation. It would be tempting to set an alarm for 3.55am and roll straight out of bed and start running, but I think I would have gotten to about run 4 with that approach before doing some long term damage. So same routine of foam roller, warm up and stretching before going out on the hour.
I was actually quite surprised at how good I felt on this run. This one more than any of the others I felt like I got into a groove and just churned it out. This came through in the stats for my pacing with every kilometres average pace within a few seconds of each other. This was the part where I felt I had to go to a different place mentally, not focussing on my body or the road ahead and just let my legs tick over. Average pace 5.35 per km.
When I got home I was looking forward to sleeping again. I drank another recovery shake and skipped the shower. It had been a lot cooler out on this run than any of the previous runs so my priority, after stretching, was to get to bed. Alarm set for 7.30am.
Run 10: Saturday 27 June @ 8am
Music: None
Mollie had offered to come running with me again and I was looking forward to having a pacer, however when I opened my front door Alex was there again in running gear with some cherries for me. So now I had two pacers!
I was getting a bit sick of running the same loops so Mollie suggested running to the Olympic Park and back which was a welcome change. We started at somewhere around 6.00 per km pace but got a bit quicker as I got into it a bit more. I was a lot less chatty than the last run with Mollie at 4am on Friday so I mainly followed her and Alex and just tried to keep the legs going.
All in all, not too bad. Average pace of 5.47 per km and the body was still holding up.
I doubted I would be able to sleep again so I just tried to eat something (granola, kiwi, nuts and seeds) and relax on the sofa.
Run 11: Saturday 27 June @ 12pm
Music: Maceo Plex essential mix (2015)
It was a bit of a struggle to get up off the sofa to start the warm up routine again. My body felt good but I wasn’t sure how much energy I would have. On balance I was probably lagging behind my nutrition plan at this point in terms of calories consumed but it was difficult to tell and I’d been snacking on chocolate covered almonds whenever I could.
There had been no need to worry because when I started running I felt pretty good. As per usual I set off too quickly and then tried to slow myself down a bit, however I also thought to myself that with only one run left after this one there comes a point where there’s not much running left to conserve energy for.
In the end I managed to keep a pretty even 5.25 per km pace. I was free styling a bit with the route towards the end of the run weaving up and down trails on Wanstead flats. Luckily I’ve spent many hours running these routes so it was relatively easy to ensure I ended somewhere not too far from the house.
I’d been meaning to watch the Dragon Back Race documentary, a 315km race across the spine of Wales with 15500m of ascent and the equivalent descent, for several weeks and this felt like as good a time as any. Inspiration for the final run!
Run 12: Saturday 27 June @ 4pm
Music: Maceo Plex essential mix (2018)
So the big question was how fast could I run the final 6.4km?! Having been so conscious of conserving energy for the best part of two days, as this was the last run I could completely empty the tank. In preparation, I made and drank a final high carb drink to make sure I had enough energy for a last push.
Just before I went out I wondered what music to choose, but since the last run went well I thought I’d keep it the same so I chose another Maceo Plex essential mix to propel me along.
I went pretty hard straight from the start and at 2km I was comfortably under 5.00 per km pace. In spite of the carb drink, energy levels were lagging a bit so it felt pretty unsustainable. When I’m trying to run fast I usually like to try to keep something in reserve and run the last bit hard but no such luxury in this situation.
The next 20 minutes can only be described as really painful! I tried to up the pace a few times but had no gear to go to so it was just a case of burying myself to keep the same pace going. Luckily I timed it reasonably well and only started to deteriorate in the last couple of hundred metres.
As I turned into my road, Mollie and Jess were outside the house and Mollie had a cowbell to welcome me home. It was such a great feeling to finish. 4x4x48 signed off with a sub 5.00 per km average split for Run 12!
Conclusion
When I agreed to try this challenge I did not know whether I would be able to finish it or not. I have run a lot over the last couple of years but mainly short distances (i.e. less than 10k) and whilst the challenge only requires you to run 6.4 km at a time, the total distance covered is pretty huge in 48 hours.
There were definitely some hard times. I think anyone that does the challenge will go through at least one bad patch, will suffer some stomach issues (eating and digesting enough calories every 4 hours is hard) and some muscle soreness. The weather was also a huge factor as it was so hot and humid in London during the challenge.
At the end of the day, however, the challenge is hard, but doable, and I think that anyone that runs 20k+ per week and isn’t too injury prone has a good chance to finish it. You just have to really WANT to finish it!
Final stats: 77.58 kilometres run in a total time of 7 hours 4 minutes and 7 seconds at an average pace of 5.28 per km.
Here is a breakdown of Matt’s runs from the challenge:
