One step forward 5 giant jumps back (My Tough Mudder Journey)
Another week has literally flown by! I can't believe we are in JULY!!! That means I can officially say that my Tough Mudder is NEXT MONTH!!! (And so is my birthday, #justsaying) but let's get back to the TM!!! Oh my god, next month! 47 days to be exact! That's crazy! And I'm nowhere near [...]
Sun and Run? Those two don’t mix well!(My Tough Mudder Journey)
Firstly I am LOVING the weather right now! Talk about heatwave! It's been gorgeous weather here in Essex! And I am loving chilling out in the sunshine! The hot weather however does present a slight problem to us runners (how hilarious that I am actually classing myself as a runner here)! Okay let me rephrase that, [...]
Getting back to it! (My Tough Mudder Journey)
I think the title speaks for its self! But this week (week 24) I can confirm that I got back into RUNNING!!! (Multiple high fives needed here!) With my first Tough Mudder as you guys most probably know, being only 2 months away, I knew I needed to take serious action, and force myself to get [...]
Lisa! Pull yourself together! MINI BLOG! (My Tough Mudder Journey)
I've decided on just a mini blog this week because once again I don't have anything to report on. Unfortunately this is becoming a recurring little pattern, with the promise of "I'll be better next week" never actually materialising. I am slowly loosing count of the weeks, but I think we are on week 23 [...]
A week of DEFLATION! (My Tough Mudder Journey)
Okay so here is where we're at! I have noticed such a serious decline in my motivation and progression, and for the past 2 weeks I have felt extremely disappointed in myself. This week was my 22nd week, I have now officially been running for 22 long hard whole weeks. I'd love to say that [...]
Long Weekends are certainly NOT for exercising (My Tough Mudder Journey)
WEEK 20!!!! I am on week 20 of my Tough Mudder journey and I'm still moaning about it!!! It's getting much harder with the change in weather! Don't get me wrong this beautiful weather we're having here is amazing, it finally feels like summer after all the cold weather we've had! But I am not [...]
Giving up is the easy option!! (My tough mudder journey)
WEEK 18!! Wow! Time flies when your having fun!!! Okay that is a major exaggeration, running and training are not fun!! But still every week when I sit here writing my blog I always give myself a little pat on the back that I'm still at it, currently undefeated! So this week I had my first [...]
When your fake tan is running faster than you! (My Tough Mudder Journey)
I'm loosing count of weeks!!! I've been doing this for so long now it's slowly (so very slowly) becoming a routine, so we are at week 17 now, my progress has been slow and painful, but last week I smashed it with my very first 2 mile run! So the question is, do I now attempt [...]
Sweat and tears! Lots of tears!! (My tough mudder journey)
I must be doing something right because here I am still blogging about my Tough Mudder journey at week 16!!! 4 whole months since I started on this "life changing journey"..... I say life changing because it has changed my life, in the sense that I don't seem to have one anymore, and the one [...]
