It was a really tough half marathon with high winds on the seafront. I had to dig deep .. I actually felt it was tougher for me than the marathon and I felt sick for about half of it! However I was delighted with my time of 2 hours 46 minutes. Thank you so much to everyone who has supported and sponsored me

It was mums birthday at the weekend and I thought about her a lot. I’ve been doing short runs and very long walks. Just come back from a 2 hour walk in between heavy wind and rain!

This morning I ran from Hove to Lancing and walked back from Shoreham to Hove. I totalled a distance of 16 miles. Have done some short runs this week and some long walks. I have got my energy gels and protein shakes ready and am using them for longer training sessions as I did for the marathon 2 years ago!

Today was probably the furthest run I will do before the actual event - I ran for 2 hours with a couple of short walking breaks to consume energy gels! I ran 9.2 miles and the return part was against the wind and some uphill! I'm aiming for a half marathon time of under 3 hours and if I can push myself on the day maybe even under 2 hours and 45 minutes. For the whole of January I walked a minimum of 15 000 steps a day with some runs in there too. Thank you to all those who have sponsored me so far.

Today I ran for an hour and a half without stopping - I ran 7 miles. Really happy with that - making progress every week!

I’ve run 5 miles this morning starting at 6.30am when the temperature was -3! Pleased with my progress

I've started my running training and I'm up to 3 and a half miles. Its very cold when I go out at 6.30 am!
