When you choose your scrubs to match your medal 🏅 First day working post-marathon and I’m hoping I don’t have to bend down to examine any patients 🙈 I think I’ll just wear my medal so people know why I’ve aged 60 years #didyouknowijustranamarathon . . #pinkscrubs #medalwednesday #marathon #marathoner #marathonrunner #vetlife #vetsofinstagram #firstdayback #pinkvet #runningvet #runninggirl #thisvetruns #thisgirlcan #stillproud #marathonspam #yorkshiremarathon #yorkmarathon #miscarriagesupport
How does it feel to cross the finish line of a marathon? As I ran down that final stretch, for the first time knew 100% I was definitely going to make it. The relief was immense and all at once the sheer magnitude of the amount of love and support and kindness that had got me there hit me like a tidal wave. I ran it on my own with my little legs, but I was carried there by everyone else. I crossed the line feeling overwhelmingly grateful. . . . #marathonrunner #marathoner #finishline #crossingtheline #grateful #runningsupport #thankyou #runcommunity #ukrunchat #thisvetruns #vetlife #friendsandfamily #charityrunner #yorkshiremarathon #yorkmarathon #whatitsliketofinish #finishingamarathon #itsnotasprintitsamarathon #runninggirl #runningblog #coupleswhorun #coupleswhoruntogether
I did it!!! I ran a whole actual marathon 😭 It was hard, amazing, very wet. It hasn’t completely sunk in yet, but mostly... 🙈 THANK YOU everyone for your love and kindness. This meant a lot to me.. 6 months ago I’d just had surgery after a miscarriage, today I just ran a marathon. . . . #yorkshiremarathon #imamarathoner #marathonrunner #marathon #racephoto #thisgirlcan #thesegirlscan #thisvetruns #tgcrtribe #nottswomenrunners #womenrunning #runningvet #runninggirl #runningformylife #babylossawareness #babylossawarenessweek #mindmatters #miscarriagematters #miscarriageawareness #everysinglestep #buildingmyselfbackup #recovery #carbloadingworked #guidedogs #guidedogsfortheblind #fundraiser #charityrunner #charitymarathon #starjump

The best bit about a marathon? Carb loading!! What I might lack in running talent I have decided to make up for with pizza. For breakfast. It’s 24h to go until the big day.. starting to feel real now which is both scary and amazing. It means a huge amount to me, and I’ve struggled with my emotions a few times during runs this week. I’m going to try focus I’m feeling present - I want to take on board the emotion of why I’m running, but I don’t want to let it overwhelm me either. . . So, bags are packed. I’ve triple checked I’ve got my trainers. I’ve turned into Run-Zilla and packed my spectators rucksacks too 👌🏻Lets go to Yorkshire!!! . . Special thanks to the wonderful @holy_calzones for cooking me pizza for breakfast. And helping me significantly with my carbohydrate intake in the previous few weeks 😁 . . . #yorkshiremarathon #carbloading #pizzaforbreakfast #holycalzone #babylossawareness #babylossawarenessweek #miscarriagesupport #miscarriagematters #thisgirlcan #thisvetruns #thisgirlcanrun #marathonrunner #marathonnutrition #mentalhealthawareness #runninggirl
A slow 5km as we head in to the final few days before the marathon. Today also marks the start of Baby Loss Awareness Week, and I will be running the marathon with my blue and pink ribbon pin. . . As the London Marathon ballot results so drop through the letter boxes it feels like the culmination of lots of things for me. I trained all winter for London but after falling pregnant and subsequently having a miscarriage it wasn’t meant to be. I picked myself up and trained again from scratch to run the Yorkshire Marathon this weekend instead. I am expecting to find the run very emotional, but at the same time it also feels like reaching a huge milestone in recovering from everything that has happened this year. . . #BLAW2018 #babylossawareness #miscarriagesupport #miscarriagematters #miscarriageawareness #miscarriageassociation #pregnancyloss #runninggirl #thisgirlcan #marathontraining #marathonrunner #yorkshiremarathon #runcommunity #tgcrtribe #thisgirlcanrun #runningformylife #recovery #mindmatters #vetlife #bsava #vetmindmatters #blaw
