4 days to go.....

So with 4 days to go we are on our way to collect our London Marathon numbers. 7 weeks ago, I didn’t think this would be happening....

1 A&E trip, countless ankle sprains, 1 set of crutches, 1 air boot, a lot of tears, days of double sessions of cross trainer and the spinning bike and an awesome team effort we are here!

For some that dream ended somewhere in the last 16 weeks and in the euphoria of the next couple of days, I would like you to spare a thought for them. Try and understand their struggle, their emotions and how they are feeling with the constant social media updates! I know they will be supporting you, whether it’s on the streets of London or motivational good luck messages, they will mean every word of encouragement.

Seeing clients and friends making that decision not to run, is difficult and there has been times I have cried because I know what running the marathon would have meant to them. To those people, use that anger towards your injury to make you even more determined to come back stronger and fitter and conquer those goals you’ve set yourself.

To those who are running, enjoy the expo and good luck!
