5/10 – So that is it, I have made up my mind and just emailed my decision to my line manager. I have decided to return to work on Monday. Do I think I am ready? No. Will there ever be a right time? I really don’t know? My counsellor was a little surprised when I said that I was going back but we talked things through and I will just have to see how I feel and go with it. I feel like I need to at least try as I will never know. I am looking forward to seeing people but I do not know how I will cope with people being around me, or the demand of work. I guess I will just have to see. Friends are not convinced by my decision.

Celebrating #medalmonday from 1 year ago with the awesome @jaketyler_bdw and our second @londonmarathon with team @heads_together #mindovermarathon 🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♂️ I am not running London this year but to those of you who are, enjoy your final week of preparation. The hard work is now done so trust your body and mind on Sunday. Good luck and I will enjoy seeing your pics next week 👌🏻 #spiritoflondon #marathon #run #runner #running #makeithappen #believe #everybodysrace

*** When you live at the coast, it’s a must visit on a day like today 😎🏖☀️🌊🐶 *** Easter weekend walks with @sian.richards.77 @carollloyd3380 @kenlloydy *** Thanks to @ithinksport for the tee 👌🏻 *** #tenby #pembrokeshire #beach #beachlife #tagteam #home #cavachon #cavachonofinstagram

*** This is my look of fear and terror (behind a smile) as I allow @sian.richards.77 to drive BOTAS my Mercedes on our road trip home to Tenby. *** Pic 2 - Great to see Olly after 10 days. He was excited to show off his Ironpup swim run skills on the North Beach 🌊🐾😎 *** Kicking the bug in the ass 🦠 *** #tenby #tenbynorthbeach #beachlife #tagteam #ironpup #family #home

*** It has certainly been one of those weeks where I have been forced to take my foot off the gas and be kind to myself. *** No energy for walking let alone any sort of exercise has left me fed up with my own head. *** I have no patience as it is only T-10 until my next event. At the moment it is a no go, but I am hoping for some sort of rapid recovery and boost of energy. 🤞🏻🤞🏻 *** Thanks to @urban_flower_studio for the Tee 🌟💥 *** #bekindtoyourself

*** FEELING SORRY FOR MYSELF POST *** I should be on a sunbed in Lanzarote, instead after being struck by a virus and unfit to fly on Thursday 🤮 I am confined to my four walls doing my head in. I managed to get out for an hour yesterday and today to see some Parkrun but I have no voice. Some will say this is a blessing. *** Complete rest until further notice 😩 *** Over n out.

*** I don’t usually have two #medalmondays on the bounce, as I have more sense than that; however. *** My medal came to the beach with myself and Olly this morning to capture this shot. I thought that seeing as the Ultra Marathon took in the beautiful welsh costal path and beaches, where better than to get a picture than my home beach, Barry Island which we ran through early on in the race. *** My legs still hurt and my body feels broken, but I am chuffed to add another achievement to the list. I plan to blog about the 33.5 mile adventure soon to give you an idea of the highs and lows which I felt along the way. *** #ultramarathon #ultrarunner #runner #run #running #welshcoastalpath #wales #valeofglamorgan #barryisland #barryislandbeach #exerciseismytherapy #medalmonday
