13. Unlucky for some, but for me, Week 13 was a winner! I’m feeling a lot more confident about the marathon and all that work I put in over the winter has started to pay dividends.
After a run with the club on Monday and a run home on Wednesday, the weekend is where the fun really began.
On Saturday, I crossed the finish line at the official Olympic track. And in just a few short months, the sporting greats of the world will be following in my path and running around the stadium to cheering crowds. So naturally I wasn’t going to pass up the opportunity and ran around like a crazed Michael Johnson, which was possibly one of the best things I’ve done this year.
My winning streak seemed to continue into Sunday, where I ran the Paddock Wood Half marathon in a Personal Best time of 1hr 55minutes. Although I’ve done three half-marathons before, I’ve never before managed to get below the 2 hour mark, so beating that was the best feeling. With 3 weeks to go now till the Big day, let’s hope my luck continues to pay off.
For those of you that have sponsored me - thank you so much. For those of you haven't - it's not too late and I would be so so grateful!
