I am beginning to wonder if @lornadupre could yet pull off the biggest political surprise by becoming Mayor @CambsPboroCA And for many reasons. 1) Labour is struggling 2) Tories remain toxic and have a candidate with an ego the size of Everest 3) Peterborough voters with no local elections will stay at home 4) East and South Cambs returned Lib Dem MPs in 2024 and haven't blighted their copy book 5) Cambridge is a mix of Labour and Lib Dem and Conservatives remain in the minority 6) Reform will screw Conservatives in Fenland and 7) @lornadupre is an accomplished and positive campaigner with an understated track record.

@absoluteradio people who don’t order enough food and want some of yours are usually called “children”, but also… “plate invaders”!

@cedavies79 @ThisisDavina Not trying to scare you, but think you should make an informed choice! I hear most are ok, but there are some not-so-great stories and next time I’d take the rest of the day at home to relax with a hot water bottle.

@cedavies79 @ThisisDavina I think it depends on the individual. I had my 1st fitted in Nov - I’m not a mum and apparently have a retroverted uterus. Fitting itself was uncomfortable but not too bad. 30-60 mins later I had very painful cramps and had to nap. On and off cramps continued for ~2 weeks.

Please ask for pain relief at the time of booking your NHS appointment. Last year there was a directive the every woman should be asked if she’d like it . This takes time to filter thru . So do ask . It made a big diff to me .

Two weeks later and I can finally access my account again! 🥳 What have I missed?! 👀

Managed to drag this struggling old body 5.5km! 🏃🏻‍♀️😅 It’s mad that Strava has reminded me this time last year I ran 16km at a quicker pace than tonight’s one third of the distance… but we are where we are and I have no regrets taking the time out from training that I have. I c…

Two days in a row of moving my body! 🥳🙏🏼 Coming out of what has felt like a miserable virus just after Christmas I’ve finally felt ready to get some exercise in. I started small with some squats and press ups yesterday - I didn’t feel any worse for it, plus my RHR and HRV co…

Not the start to the New Year I had planned! 🫠🤦🏻‍♀️ After returning to running after injury I then ended up sick and unable to train again just a couple of days before the New Year. Fun times, ha. As with many people, I decided to join the #gymshark66 challenge… 66 days to make …

After putting it off, I got out for a run! 😅🏃🏻‍♀️ Unfortunately, since moving house and to a new area, I haven’t felt fully safe running on my own in the dark. Maybe it’s because I haven’t run much in the light either. Or because I missed the gradual adjustment from light to dar…

Back to training and a nice little confidence boost. 😅🙌🏼 We built up to a max deadlift for the day, before taking on an 8min workout of 2 wall walks and 2 deadlifts for as many rounds as possible. I didn’t have any idea how heavy I would be able to go with the deadlifts, hav…

Christmas Day run with company! 🥰🙌🏼 Running on Christmas morning has been tradition for me for a while now and even better doing it with @ianrunsldn @clairelizabeth__ and one half of @rafa.indy.explore alongside. We went to the local riverside park and did a run/walk interva…

Back to parkrun! 🥳🙌🏼 Three and a half weeks ago I decided to get myself into a routine of exercise, starting up CrossFit again and balancing with a bit of swim/bike/run to keep myself able to scrape through a triathlon. Then, just doing normal day to day stuff, I ended up wi…

Catching up… 😅 I couldn’t make many CrossFit classes this week so made note of one of the sessions to do at home today in our garage gym. Building up to a 3RM snatch in seven sets and then 1 min max reps at 80% of the number reached. Considering I haven’t done these for a lo…

Fighting the good fight! 👊🏼😅 Back to @crossfit_thurrock this evening for a go at the CrossFit workout “fight gone bad”. I figured this would be one I could fumble my way though despite my sore toe, so it made sense to make the time. A quick change after work and off I went i…

Back to 6am club! ⏰💪🏼 Trying to do what I can with what I’ve got… whether that means fitting in CrossFit classes around work, December events and time with family, or if it’s adapting the workouts themselves so I don’t cause unnecessary delay to my healing process. This morn…

It’s been a bit of a rollercoaster this week. 👀🙄 I’ve made no secret of the fact that I’ve felt a bit lost since Ironman. Training was hit and miss for a little while and then at the end of September I decided to take a proper break. The longest I’ve gone without training in…

Lovely sunset run with company this afternoon. 🏃🏻‍♀️☺️ I feel very lucky that Ian and I moved house and ended up being just around the corner from friends made through instagram. We’ve gone on dog walks together, had chatty dinners and even carved pumpkins. Today we stepped the …

Rare sighting of me on my bike… 👀😆 After what feels like forever, it was really nice to head out on two wheels. @cloestone_tri had a route planned taking on just over 70km and I ambitiously agreed, despite not pedalling since the first week of September! I’m not sure my legs…

Back moving my body after what seems like an age… 👀🤦🏻‍♀️ I haven’t really felt like myself for a little while now and training hasn’t been a priority either. I’m not 100% sure what’s going on, but I could put a bet on it being post-everything blues. This summer was the culminati…

@AdrianMonti Hi Adrian - sorry, I didn’t get a notification. Feel free to get in touch if you still need us 😊👍🏼

@fitcetera @PtMollie @runnersworlduk @LondonMarathon @paddlepedalpace @IanRunsLDN Thanks Georgina- just going through my replies now, so can I come back later?
