  • Hi! I'm a beginner runner training for her first marathon in April 2024. Read below for a little back story!
    September 12th, 2013. I embarked on what would be the most life-changing year of my life without even knowing it. The past years have paled in comparison and I miss the person I was back then. This is me deciding I want to do whatever I can to become my old self again and finally move on from the past.
    This is the start of me documenting my journey. I am literally running back to the past one more time. I am training to run a marathon in the city where it all began and write a novel inspired by my year in England. I'm not a runner or a writer but this is something I promised myself I'd do and it's time to stop making excuses.

    Your vlogging style is really cool. You've really gone full steam ahead with the running gear, and getting a coach. It will be me asking you for running advice before long!
    Keep up the good work 👍🏻🙂

    Best wishes. I just ran my first marathon in Houston last weekend. It was very challenging. The last 6 miles, my only thought was never to ever do this again. A week later, I am slowing thinking of running the marathon again next year to make it a better experience.

      Hi! Thanks so much for your comment and well done on running a marathon!! That's an amazing accomplishment and even more so if you struggled at the end. Hehe funny right, running has a way of making you go from 'never again' to 'let's go running' in no time 😜😅

    Oh I for sure get the eating too soon at run time. I either don’t eat at all or too close to the run🤦‍♀️🙄
    Congrats on the subs!🙌

      Yes same haha! I've been experimenting with eating a small meal an hour before a run and so far so good! Haven't had any cramps since. And thank you! 😁

    Definitely check out Stephen King's On Writing, great book for writers. Out of all the channels documenting their running journey, your story seems very meaningful and impactful. You are going to transform so much. I love the transparency. 🙂

      Aww thank you very much for your kind words! The journey does mean a lot to me in terms of personal growth. I don't care much about my speed or whatever, or about becoming a ''pro' runner. I was never fast as a kid and I'm still not, but the journey feels almost necessary for me to take. Thanks for the book recommendation too!

    Really enjoying these vids and seeing how your progressing in your marathon journey 😊 pleased using the water bladder went well and the running gods were with you on this run 🙌😂 there are 100% runs that for whatever reason dont go to plan, and others that just work.
