London marathon what an event! 

To watch so many people show up for themselves after such a long time training, is an absolute privilege! What a wonderful day.

It’s a given that you’ll see people concur a mammoth mission, but what you don’t know if you haven’t been is the atmosphere is incredible. You’ll witness humans experience every emotion under the sun, both as a runner and a spectator. At mile 19 we saw people power run, walk, smile, cry, ask the crowd to pump them up, accept salt from strangers, laser focus. Incredible costumes, extreme resilience, supports screaming, hilarious signs, runners get reenergised from the crowd, it’s a magical day.

This one felt particularly brutal in the heat, even I was sweating and the most I did was clap. 

My favourite response to ‘you are smashing it’- ‘no it’s smashing me’ 

If you ran the London or Manchester marathon this weekend, you are my hero, the training alone for that is no easy feat. I salute you! 

And to one of my favourite people, what a bloody incredible woman you are! This woman’s endurance levels never cease to amaze me. Who’s running their first marathon a week after climbing to Everest Base Camp !? Go and show some love to lauv.p for simply being a super human 

And you got to see 3 of my best friends in 2 days, (a privilege I would say) these are some special ladies ✨ 

I have a lot of random video’s from my France trip coming this week, so I hope you enjoy some extra vids whilst I prep to go to Scotland 🫶
