V IS FOR VICTORIOUS Park run tourism continues with heading east to #parkrunvalentinespark I use to work round here but never had time to go to the local park until now. I was feeling rough but I managed to move around the course gaining first place female π©πΎβ𦱠Park run is not a race and it was fabulous to see a more inclusive group today ππΎ #parkruntourist #parkrunresolution #parkrun5km #runninga5km #running #5km #runningtraining #trilife #swimbikerun #blackfemalerunner #veganrunner #veganrunnerlondon #movingmeditation
Last long training run (2hrs 15) done in the rain this morning ahead of a month of runs in September. Set out with no route in mind but took in some of my local favourites, hanworth park, crane park, quick stop midway at the cemetery for an energy gel with my grandparents then home via the feltham circles. Passed about 3 other people who all looked at me like I was absolutely bonkers to be out running in this weather! I like to think more badass than bonkers! πͺ #veganrunnersuk #veganrunnerlondon #runnersofinstagram #sherunsoutdoors #thisgirlcan

Cumbria Way Ultra ππ½ββοΈ beat me again. Not shin splints this time, but a slippery rock causing my to do the scissor splits and pull my hamstring and jolting my shoulder ππ Not sure I would have made it all the way to the end but I was running a good pace for quite a while and consistently in the top 10. Take away about 20mins of time for me sat deciding at the aid station whether or not to carry on ha ha #vegan #veganlife #veganliving #veganrunnersuk #veganrunnerlondon #veganrunner #runningonfruit #trailrunner #poweredbyplants #cumbriawayultra

π± More veg garden updates π± (What I do when I'm not running π€£π) The very shiny pumpkins are coming along nicely (Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo π) and slowly taking over the garden even though I've pruned the main shoot (so the plants energy goes into the fruit and not just growing like the plant from little shop of horrors). π» A tokenistic shot of a sunflower π» #vegan #veganlife #veganliving #whatveganseat #poweredbyplants #vegetablegarden #vegpatch #pumpkin #sunflower #eatfresh #eatorganic #growyourgreens #veganrunnerlondon #veganrunnersuk

Iβm only smiling cause itβs over! 2 hour easy run on the half marathon training plan today. How can a two hour run ever be easy?! Think I might need to invest in some new trainers soon too as my right foot feels like the cushioning has gone. #halfmarathontraining #veganrunner #veganrunnerlondon

And that a wrap, 45 mins @ easy pace to finish the year... β β’ 2018 had been great year for my running and I really moved on, with fitness, pace and consistency. Highlights are definitely 2 marathons a week apart and 2 sub 20min 5kms... ππΎββοΈ β’ I staring working with a coach, which has really worked for me. Iβve now got real structure to my workouts, with someone else honestly telling me when to push or rest and supported with honest advice... π β’ Iβve cut down the number of races and properly prepare for each and also managed a pb at each distance, which I really proud of. Although I still have loads more at all distance and Iβm aiming to improve my time across all distances in 2019... π β’ But injury played a massive part of 2018 and was the difference between me really pushing on for the second half of the year, where my training has frustratingly been stop/start. The difference was, Jan - Jun 1461km, Jul - Dec 648km... π€ β’ That being said I still managed 2109km, which is down on my target for the year but massively up on 2017, which is great... π β’ Canβt wait for 2019 and fingers I stay healthy and injury free, so I canβt really start to push on and get after my targets... π―
