Of course I closed 2025 out with a race πŸ˜‚.



With it being the first official week of the this was always going to be a great indicator of where I'm at going in to the block.

I didn't intend to race three times in 10 days over the but that's what happened πŸ˜‚ and so with nearly 950ft of elevation and πŸ»β€β„οΈπŸ₯Ά temps this morning (-3 😲 πŸ˜‚) I'm very happy with 1:08:41 with it being my third one over this period.

But an extremely good sign going in to the block and marathon that I'm still banging that out whilst fatigued and on tired 😩 😴 legs.

Now in to the serious stuff of the marathon block and one race per month roughly and just aiming to peak and be consistent for every race of the block culminating at Vienna πŸ™ŒπŸ’ͺ.

πŸ§‘β€πŸŽ„ Glynneath Festive 5 Miler πŸ§‘β€πŸŽ„

As competitive athletes we never want to not PB and we always want to try and PB and be at our absolute πŸ’― best every race but that's just not possible and I'm more at ease with that the longer I've been in the Sport.

I didn't even feel like I went off to hard and (the first mile aside) was on pace exactly how I wanted and planned to be for the first half.

But the return back and the 🌬️ just took it out of my legs really.

But still very happy with 29:35 all things considered and factoring in the wind being in our faces during the gradual incline for the last 4km.

Not my best day but feeling very good and all about peaking for the right moments. Onwards and Upwards.

Next πŸ”œ= Llandeilo 10 Miler and the start of block πŸ™ŒπŸ«Ά.

🎬 Wednesday πŸ’ͺ.

So I'm in the middle of a rest block from 🏁 ATM taking a bit of downtime and rest from and a few weeks rest before the kicks in in a few weeks time.

Then it's all roads lead to .

Coach has actually given me an easy week this week as well you could say so in the middle of a couple nice down weeks before the block kicks in.

But come behind the scenes of what a typical looks like for me when I'm day off from everything else.

And Storm Bram....... Where do they get these names from? Whatever next πŸ˜‚

I'll post the Recipe soon 😜 πŸ˜‰.

πŸ€₯ Have you ever put yourself out of your comfort zone to get over your past fears and past traumas?

It’s been a long process the last 16 months trying different sorts of therapy, CBT and other mental health services. I am still excited and looking forward to seeing the soon because I want to know if a lot of the bullying I experienced years ago brought out any in me as a result because looking back with a clear mind and rationale mind now I can see it wasn’t normal the way I was letting the past still affect my present 8 or 9 years later.

But it was 6 weeks ago when watching the Lewis Moody MND reveal interview on TV that I wrote in my journal πŸ“ β€œwhat can anyone say to me or do that is anywhere near as bad as having to deal or live with that”. And the power of meant that I well and truly forgot about everything and bar today whereby I had a little down day for the last 6 weeks I have been consistently fantastic.

Becoming best friends with this one lady in the workplace really meant I had to push myself out of my comfort zone for the whole time that we worked together. Because I have unfortunately had a ❀️ ruined in a previous place due to , , etc a long time ago it really was outside of my comfort zone as ever since my guard had been up and I refused to entertain even making effort with people in work. We just hit it off as best friends and becoming best friends was the best thing to happen to me generally but also my future going forward in because at times looking back now I was for some small periods and used to be or if I was having a bad day and I hadn’t heard from her and scared of people interfering.

But like now I am more or less out of the other side and I’m comfortable now that sometimes life and people are busy and if I don’t hear from her for a while then it doesn’t mean we are any less close or best friends, sometimes people and life are just busy. It’s just much nicer again when we hang out.

It’s been a long process but I’m finally coming out other side now 🫢🫢πŸ₯°πŸ«ΆπŸ«‘😻.
