Meltdown update 🙄🤣

[Tasha99]

First I’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone for their amazing support on my last post! It really helped. Hopefully I’m on the way back now.

Went out with my friend today - our 3rd consecutive run day before 4 days of rest (she’s going away so there was no other way around it). Managed to get a half marathon in which I was pleased about. I felt much better than on Tuesday (although it was far from easy) but the weather was perfect - cooler and drizzle. 27.5 miles in three days - not bad.

Next run is Tuesday and we’re going for a long one but the weather is forecast warmer so we’ll see how that one goes.

Hopefully I’ll get my 125 miles in August target and ‘Race at Your Pace’ medal next week. Happy resting 👍🏽

Well that’s a happier sounding Tasha! 👏👏🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

And well done on your casual HM! See, you are an incredible runner? One who clearly doesn’t need compression socks! 😅

Fantastic to hear 😁 glad you've found some fun again 👍🏻

[Tasha99 Marathon in reply to GoGo_JoJo]

It was hard and I’m a long way off marathon but it hadn’t beaten me just yet 😍

[Stephen_UK Half Marathon]

Great work, Tasha. We are all rooting for you!

Well done Tasha 🏃‍♀️👏🏻👏🏻

[Decker Ultramarathon]

Awesome Tasha. Happy to hear you are enjoying it again. You’ll do it. You’ll see.

[Hidden]

So pleased you feel more positive. Love the nonchalant way you clocked up HM distance. It's all relative - I'm stressing about reaching HM and reassuring myself I've managed over 10 miles. There is no doubt you will do this. x

[Tasha99 Marathon in reply to Hidden]

You’ll do it Flick! It was still tough but better than Tuesday.

[Setters Half Marathon]

A casual HM 😳😐🥵 didn’t know such things exist, seems like an oxymoron to me. But you give me hope as I was really annoyed with myself yesterday as just another 1/2 mile and I would have cracked 10 miles, should have kept going ☹️ so moral is just get back out there and plug on even if you don’t believe in yourself

[Tasha99 Marathon in reply to Setters]

It was hard and as it’s marathon training we did stop and walk to fuel. You’ll get that 10 miler and then you’ll almost be at your HM 👍🏽

[SkiMonday Ultramarathon]

Hi Tasha, good to see that you're back on form! Taking a 4 day break part way through your training seems like a smart move.

[Tasha99 Marathon in reply to SkiMonday]

I hope so! Thank you 🤞🏽
