I really need a better coping mechanism than just booking races at the whiff of a negative emotion.

The post sign-up hype has faded and now it has sunk in that I have to run 100km 🫠 raising money for charity this time so expect spam in approximately 6 months

Accidentally signed up for a 100km ultra marathon. What could possibly go wrong.

Some people buy things to make them feel better, I book ultras.

January has been incredibly rubbish and I'm so glad tomorrow is finally February. We made it.

Nobody talks about the grief of realizing how much life you lost to survival mode.

I know I'm on edge when a children's film where I know the outcome manages to make me anxious 🥲

Why does this January have to be so...*January*

There is currently an ice-cream van circling the estate. It's less than a week until Christmas. I kinda respect it.

First day back at work after over 3 months off tomorrow..."bricking it" doesn't really cover it.

I know recovery isn't linear, but it would be nice if it could go in broadly one direction.

Serious FOMO now. Silly brain.

Disappointed I can't do the Great South Run today, first year in a while. Good luck to all of those participating 🏃🏻‍♀️

World Suicide Prevention Day may be over, but the conversation definitely isn’t. Let's all make it our mission to do keep taking action to prevent suicide. Whether it's simply checking in on someone or sharing our number 💚

Relapsing with mental health is like a kick to the stomach. You always hope that you most recent relapse will be your last.

I have post ultra marathons feet at the moment (if you know you know) and have to wear heels on Saturday...they are not going to be pretty 😭

Why oh why did I have to read the comments of the local asylum seeker "scandal"

I do 100km over 2 days, and have chafing on my back, a grazed knee and hands, two massive bruises and rubbed ankles, and what am I doing? Looking at 100km straight through ultras 🤦🏻‍♀️

Day one ✅ not sure if I'll be able to move tomorrow 😂

Letting my hair air dry into a frizzball because there is no way I'm using a hairdryer in this heat!
