January has been a hectic and fairly stressful month for me and will continue to be so until Wed. But now, more than ever, I realise the power of exercise to clear the head and de-stress. It’s the only time I can zone out and stop my brain. Movement is medicine in every sense.

I get drugs tested every 3 months on average, once a year at work. Always the absolutely worst possible timing. Today, when I was solo in an impossibly booked clinic. My life. Two careers. Polar opposites. Only just afloat.

Tomorrow it begins. The journey to the start has been life-changing. I have no doubt the race will be life-changing. Thank you so much for the support! @nikkibartlett now has control of all my social media so enjoy her making you laugh! I’ll try to send her some videos.

So good to be back in Tenby for the Long Course Weekend. I have shivers down my spine seeing this view remembering the last time I ran through this gorgeous town in September. So many happy memories from so many trips here over the years.

Lucy descending into Dufton (half checkpoint). Cheery and on great form after an hour sleep at Langdon Beck (Check point 3). She’s fed there ready for the trip to Alston. She should get there around this evening time & that’s where she’s planning on a bigger stop. GO GO GO Goss

So I enter Helvellyn triathlon a few weeks ago on a whim. Today I hear that @protriorg may offer a prize purse to turn it into a pro race. Thus I may inadvertently be entered into the only elite race this year! Hike a bike training tactic and granny run descents. Be scared pros😉
