I now have some running shoes.

I went to 'The Running Shop' in Northampton to get some decent trainers. I ended up getting some Brooks running shoes because they felt bouncy. Also because they didn't have repulsive neon laces or soles like some of the other options. I also got a good sports bra and some running socks. These were all gifts from my nan for doing well at uni last term.


I haven't been eating particularly healthily since I decided to run the marathon because it's been Easter, but now I'm at uni and away from my boyfriend who is a terrible influence, I am eating a bit better. I have been on at least 1 30minute bike ride every day since I got back to Brighton, but as of yet have not been for a run as I'm not feeling my best, so needed something a bit more gentle. Cycling will help fitness anyway, and every little helps.


I also just emailed Sense, a charity for deafblind people, which is a cause that really touches me, and I really hope they will give me one of their places on the marathon so I can raise as much money as possible for them. 


I'll write again after I have been for an actual run.
