I'm fundraising for... Arthritis UK

To my family and friends, the running shoes are well and truly back on for my next challenge, something I’ve been itching to do for a long time!

Over 10 million people in the UK have arthritis, my sister included was diagnosed in her early twenties, way too young. By taking on the Great North Run 2026 and for the added honour to be fundraising for Arthritis UK, we are helping work towards something we all want, a future free from arthritis! 

Please help me to push myself and dig deep in my months of training by donating to this worthy cause. It would mean the world to know I’ve crossed that finish line with all your support behind me! 

Let’s do this! Sara 🩷

April training notes…

Friday 1st May

Highlights have included a 5k under 30 minutes for the first time this year and the Coventry Half Marathon as a bit of a test to say where my race pace is currently! Hot, hilly & officially recorded as the longest half marathon with over 500m extra, safe to say I won’t be doing this one again! Despite difficult conditions I was really happy I could get back on pace on the flat & downhill stretches! Some relaxing swims, bike rides & shorter runs have been great for recovery post race!

March training notes…

Sunday 29th Mar

Started March off with the Burghley 7, my first race of the year! Felt amazing to be back out there on a beautiful day, beautiful setting and with John popping up along the route to cheer me on! The rest of March has been about sticking to a training plan, working on some speed work and the longer runs when Sophie’s weekend gymnastics competitions have allowed! She has been my biggest inspiration this month, all her energy & enthusiasm doing something she loves has rubbed off on me!

February training notes…

Saturday 21st Feb
Starting to up the miles this month, now my place in the GNR is official! 10 miles accomplished this morning at Brixworth Country Park (my favourite place to run), strong parkrun effort to start with, followed by a steady endurance. Trainers need a good clean, it was pretty muddy dodging the puddles!
