I am done, spent, exhausted.
Currently training for my third marathon in Berlin, plagued by fatigue and injury over the past few weeks, my running mojo seems to have up and left. I've been deserted. This is not good with only 25 days to go until I run the marathon.
With the London Marathon also earlier this year, I feel like I've been running since December. I'M TIRED. And with only a couple of weeks break after London before embarking on Berlin training, I just feel so over it. This coupled with a hectic (but I must say absolutely bloody brilliant) year of 30th birthday celebrations, weddings and hen dos, not to mention a very busy work life this year, it's been difficult to fit it all in. And my heart just hasn't been in my training this time.
Twitter, usually a source of encouragement and motivation, makes me think I'm not like these people I follow who are clearly brilliant superheroes, able to bash out 200 mile runs for breakfast, followed by a marathon for lunch and an Ironman for dinner.
And this Sunday just gone, I totally sacked off my long run altogether in favour of staying in having a nap and a curry. I have never contemplated not doing a long run during any training before, but I just couldn't face it.
So if you find it - pleeeeaaase send me back my running mojo. Preferably within the next 3 weeks.
Until then I'll be over here, pretending that I still have it. I'll continue on my training plan, run my crucial 20 miler, get myself to yoga, treat myself to some snazzy kit, eat right and perhaps the most crucial of all, get some shut eye.
Maybe this is where it's hiding all along?

Severn Bridge Half Marathon - Race Report
Ever fancied running from Wales to England and back again? Well this weekend I did just that with my super speedy brother in law, Gavin. Want to know how we did? Us too! But we can’t tell you because each time we look at the results, they are different!
Read on for the Severn Bridge Half Marathon race report.
Race Organisation
This was the first ever Severn Bridge Half marathon, and this tied with the fairly lax information given out pre-race (weird attempts at humour and no postcode for start point), we weren't holding out a lot of hope. But I must say I was pleasantly surprised! Race HQ was clearly signed from the motorway, and the event village was really good for spectators. As always, more toilets might have been helpful!
Starting Location
The race started smack bang in the middle of the old Severn Bridge. Pretty cool, and a nice early morning view. However, I think it could have benefited from starting BEFORE the bridge so you got to run over it fully twice. But as far as races starts go, this was a goodie!
Route
The draw of this race is that the route incorporates the Severn Bridge. And this is great. But the bridge part is in fact fairly short! After the first crossing you then go into pretty much 9 miles of small but very scenic countryside lanes, flanked by cows, poo and some rather lovely houses – which is all very nice, apart from the hills which were unexpected. Oh the HILLS.
The website states: ‘The course is best described as 'undulating with one hill’
Crandon states: ‘The course is best described as really effing hilly with several hills leading up to one GIGANTIC VERY STEEP AND VERY LONG HILL’
Seriously, there were about 6 hills before we got to what I'm going to refer to as ‘The Beast’ just after the 5/6 mile mark (I think).
This isn't to say I didn't like the route, I just felt unprepared. I like running in countryside but the continual up-hill-down-hill made it difficult to get a proper pace going.
Crowds
Due to the countryside and bridge route, there were very few spectators. But I must say the marshals were all really encouraging and there were little pockets of supporters along the way which was really nice. Some homeowners had set up camp with seats and a cuppa outside their house, and I was most jealous of them! Running back to the finish line was nice as this is where the majority of spectators were. I say nice, I mean painful and the crowds were needed to get up the final hill. I don’t mind saying that the small crowds at the end, coupled with the pain from an injury, made me well up and feel pretty emotional. But I held back the tears. Just.
On Route Drinks and Snacks
No snacks or gels that I remember, but there were plenty of water stations and each also had a portaloo. I think there were about 3 or 4 in total spread out over pretty equal distance which was good. And again marshalled by very encouraging and lovely people!
Official T Shirt
I might go as far to say this is the BEST official race T-shirt I have ever received. Good design, and they are actually true to size! Hallelujah!
Medal
A good design featuring the Severn Bridge. Its nice! But light! As my Mum noted, ‘it’s not as heavy or as good quality as the London Marathon Medal is it’. I love you Mum
Mark out of 10
6/10
Considering this was the inaugural race, I think the organisers did a really good job. The atmosphere was good, lovely lovely marshalls and I love a local race. They also get top marks for the medal and t-shirt.
I would have given them a 7 out of ten BUT WHAT THE HELL IS UP WITH THE TIMING RESULTS?!
Since Sunday I have received 3 different timings on the website of my gun time. All of which are way out of my watch time (but admittedly this did stop for a second or two…oops!). I do not have a chip time, and neither does Gavin, and a fair few others it would seem according to the forums. They have emailed all participants and do seem to be trying to sort it out but still no results for us! The website states, ‘As keen runners ourselves we know how important accurate and efficient race timing is.’ Sadly they seem to have fallen at the final hurdle.

My new er...toy
In training for my third marathon, I finally bit the bullet last night and invested in a new gadget...of sorts. If I'm honest I've been putting off making this purchase but after my legs decided they hated me this week following an 18 mile run on Saturday, I knew it was time...
Enter the foam roller.
Now its not been a long relationship, granted, but after 24 hours here are a few things I have learnt about this weird and wonderful bit of training equipment.
1) It hurts like a bitch
It's true. It hurts. Pressing and rolling and doing all sorts of odd things to aching muscles is not going to be a walk in the park. It's a nice (ish) pain though, like when you get a really good sports massage. But not as good. Obviously.
2) It looks weird.
Try rolling around on a bit of bright orange foam and not feeling like a doofus. Worse still, you look like you are actively trying to have sex with this orange bit of foam. Throw in the noises escaping from the pain and it might be best to alert your loved ones/ flat mates/ neighbours/ cat (delete as appropriate) before they raise eyebrows, and let them know that you are not in fact attempting relations with this new random object you sneaked upstairs after your run...
3) It's a workout in itself
Now I know I don't have the most amazing upper body strength, but this foam rollering lark is hard work! Phew wee! I was TIRED after a mini session last night. My arms, my legs...
4) It (seems) to work!
Now again, its only been a day - but I totally knackered my calf last night on a 5 mile fast run. It HURT. With 6 and a half weeks to go to Berlin Marathon I do NOT want to be getting an injury. I dutifully foam rollered last night, and while I'm not miraculously cured, I can actually walk rather than hobble today.
So there we go - I probably should've got one a long time ago - even if to just give my boyfriend a laugh at me rolling around like a running loon.

We Love Manchester 10K - Race Report
I’ve recently decided to try and do more local races, and with this in mind I entered the ‘We Love Manchester 10k’ and ran it back in July. With a 12 mile run showing on my marathon training plan that week however, I was unsure how to incorporate the race into my weekly schedule. Should I just run the 10k as an extra run? Or sack off my 12 mile run altogether? Neither of these seemed like a viable option so I decided to incorporate the race into my 12 miler. Yes, like a running loon.
Luckily the race start was 3 miles from my house, so I ran to the race HQ, did the 10k (6.4 miles) and then ran the 3 miles home – therefore getting both the race and the training distance under my belt! Phew!
No PB was expected by doing this as I was keen to ensure the 12 mile marathon training was the priority rather than the race, however I did secretly wonder if I’d improved on speed since my last 10K in November…turns out running to a race is a good warm up and I managed a PB by 3 minutes of 45:54. I am also enjoying the symmetry of this number. Wahoo!
So how was the race itself? Read on for my race report:
WE LOVE MANCHESTER 10K - 13th July 2014

Race Organisation
This was OK. It was organised through Sports Tours International, and I was expecting a little more from them I think. There wasn't a lot of information sent out, and I found the website difficult to navigate and find certain info. I had to trawl through it to find even the important info like a course map. But the start details and race numbers were all sent out OK.

But the start details and race numbers were all sent out OK.
Starting Location
This was by far the highlight of the race and I suspect the reason people keep coming back to do this 10K, as it starts and finishes in the Regional Athletics track - making you to feel like a real rockstar runner with support from the stadium seats. However, there wasn't a whole lot of organising. The DJ and warm up were pretty dire and there weren't any starting pens depending on speed. The start was therefore a little bottle-necked, but OK.

| Stadium Start |
If I was a visitor to Manchester and ran this course, I would not think ANYONE Loved Manchester. Miserable, industrial and boring is how I would describe the route. Apart from starting and finishing in the stadium, there isn't really anything else going for this course. There was not one landmark I could tell you, but there was an awful lot of tarmac. The route also tricks you into thinking you're almost at the end when you start heading back into to stadium, only to realise that you're actually going out again and back on to the boring old main road. It had more hills than I was anticipating too. Hearing them calling your name over the PA system as you entered the stadium and ran down the track to the finish line was pretty damn cool though.
Crowds
The atmosphere within the stadium was pretty good with lots of support, and at the beginning as you ran out into the main route. From there it was pretty sparse though, due to the out of town course route I suspect.
On Route Drinks and Snacks
I think there was one well placed water station at a decent mile point, but I didn't use it. There weren't any snacks/gels that I remember but in a 10K I think this is OK.

Official T Shirt
The T shirt shows the We Love MCR Charity logo which I like - despite the T-Shirt being GINORMOUS even though it was supposedly a small. Its literally like a nightie! But its a good strong design (although apparently runs in the wash!)

Medal
Small but again shows the We Love MCR logo - I like it!
Marks out of 10
6/10 - an uninspiring route but I managed a PB and the bit in the actual stadium is good. I would do it again but purely due to it being close to home, and a much better price than say the Great Manchester 10K which is extortionate! I wouldn't recommend you make a journey for it if you live outside Manchester though. Although as its for the We Love MCR charity it gets a couple of bonus points.

Fuel on the go...
Hello! Following my London Marathon in April I have had a little break from training. Not to say I've not been running, but I have been doing so as and when I fancy, for as long as I like, for as far as I like and when I like. Running bliss!
But with my second Marathon of the year looming on the horizon, it's time for me to get back to it. Running holiday over, here I am again! Berlin here I come...er..again!
Something which comes up time and time again when training for endurance events is nutrition and how to fuel your runs. And the answer is always the same - there is no right way for everyone, try a number of different things during training (never on the day) and keep going until you find what's right for you. Good, sensible, seemingly easy advice.
For my first marathon in Berlin 2012 I used High5 gels, They were the first I tried, encountered no problems and I continued throughout my training and the race itself, feeling smug I'd found what worked for me at my first try. Happy Crand. This nutrition lark is a doddle....
Well no... not this time. Smugness gone, I found they sporadically gave me a touch of the old gurgling tum during training and even worse - race day came and after 3.5 hours of running I felt so full of sickly sweetness in the hot London Marathon sun, that using these again for another marathon I knew, was a no no. I had taken the lazy road. I should have experimented more during my training. Well my friends that time is now!
After all the sweetness of gels, jelly babies and sports drinks my craving for salty savoury snacks post marathon was alarming and I knew I wanted a more savoury way of fuelling, if such a thing existed, and definitely less synthentic and more 'natural' than the usual gels. Having been gifted some Chia Seeds by some friends I have started to dabble into this weird and wonderful super food to see what it's all about.
As luck would have it I heard via the wonder of twitter that the folk from Chia Charge were in Manchester on Saturday, so I popped down to see them for a little chat (read: massively running geeky conversation) about this super seed and its use during training for both recovery and fuel. After a little sample of the flapjack with salt (HELLO JUST WHAT I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR) and the banana flapjack, I decided to give these a try on my future long runs and see how I go. I figure the oats will help with slow energy release, while the other good stuff also get to work on recovery, electrolyte replacement (via the salt) and other goodness.
I will report back. I bet you can't wait...

The London Marathon 2014
I felt surprisingly calm the night before - I'd laid out my kit, painted my nails (all important marathon prep) and eaten my body weight in pasta. I was nervous sure, but also very excited!
I was in a right tizz however about what to wear. I knew it was going to be warm as I'd been frantically checking the weather all week, but the day before had been sunny but also chilly. I'd also done all my training wearing my pro skins long sleeved compression top which I love, and much preferred the feel of to my oversized charity vest. I therefore decided to wear both and then had a plan B of de-robing if I needed to....lets see how that went.
After the usual pre race brekkie of porridge, coffee and a banana I did a quick pre marathon photo and off we went to the finish. Friends had very kindly let us stay at their house in Greenwich so I had a really easy and chilled start which certainly took the stress out. Stepping out of the house the atmosphere was already buzzing with runners making their way in the sunshine. This was it!!
 |
| Excited Grimace. On the other side of the door the marathon awaits. |
 |
| Which way? |
I found my pen no problem, had a little chat with the burly male runners around me, and then we were off. This is it, the start of the marathon!! This year they put some stadium seating at the start and I was amazed at the level of support so early in the race. This continued the whole 26.2 miles.
It was congested at the start and for most of the race in fact, and I did feel like I was running slower than I normally would. However, I'd picked up some handy pace bands at the expo, one for 3:45 (dream time) and one for 3:50 (much more realistic), and could see that I was running at the right pace to get under my PB which is what I was hoping for.
I tried to break the run up into chunks with where I knew my supporters would be, which was mentally really helpful. First up, I was looking forward to getting to Greenwich where I'd heard the support was fantastic and was where Jamie's first station was. Running into an underpass with the biggest drums banging was unreal - the sound and the atmosphere was like nothing I'd experienced. It was SO loud and atmospheric. And this was true throughout the course, honestly at times the noise of the spectators was almost scary! Overwhelming but so good too!
Coming around the corner after the Cutty Sark I saw Jamie and his friends all waving and yelling - it was great to see them all! I shouted and waved like a loon, I was so excited! Then concentrated on getting to my next cheerers between miles 8-9. I was pretty much on track for the 3:45 up until mile 10 when I needed a wee stop! I probably could've gone on but I figured it would take two minutes and would rather stop and feel more comfortable. I usually would've been much more stubborn about this, but the whole race I felt relaxed and didn't want to add loads of pressure onto myself. I just wanted to make sure I enjoyed what I'd worked so hard to do - finish. I knew I'd done the training and was hoping for a PB so I just relaxed a little I think. Anyway, wee stop done and back on the road.
 |
| Waving like a loon through Greenwich |
Then over the almighty Tower Bridge where again the support was amazing. You feel like a superstar running over something so iconic with all those people cheering you. By this time I was almost at halfway and feeling good. Apart from the heat. "What an idiot I was to wear a long sleeved black top on probably the hottest day" I kept thinking. So come mile 15 there was nothing else for it, I pulled over to one of the few barriers of the course with less people cheering, and stripped right down to my bra in the middle of the London Marathon. Lucky spectators at mile 15. You're welcome. Anyway, vest back on and Crandon back on the road and running, only this time holding the sweatiest top in London. Mile 17 I saw Jamie again, ran up, threw said sweaty top at him, quick kiss and off I went. That's love right there, agreeing to carry your girlfriends sweaty clothes for the rest of the day. Thanks Jamie!
By this time I couldn't believe we were already on our way to mile 18. The time was FLYING by, it honestly went so quickly! I tried to make sure I thought of the positives (Only 8 miles left) rather than give into the negatives (8 MILES STILL LEFT TO GO??!!Waaaaa??!!) but was starting to struggle. I thought I was going to have to channel Chrissie Wellington and recite the poem 'If' soon to keep me going. When who should pop up en route - Chrissie herself! Shouting and cheering us all on! I yelled at her, gave a huge wave and on I went. I was so excited!
Mile 22 came and I was so pleased to see my running superstar badass friend Ellie, who was spectating and cheering like a madwoman! And thank god, as I managed to hear her almighty cheers at one of the busiest points!
To see people on the route gives you such a lift, even when a runner in front saw someone they knew I got a lump in my throat yesterday. It was so emotional with so many people running for causes they believe in, to raise money for charity, in memory of loved ones, or just for the sheer joy of running itself. It was emotionally overwhelming and around 24 it started to hit me. But then came a tunnel of pure joy. No crowds, no sun, just runners, pumping music and balloons with little motivational messages - it was a nice little quiet respite to help you focus and get into the zone. And then all I kept thinking was "Keep going, keep going, there is no way you can stop with only 2 miles left" and before I knew it I was at Big Ben, then turning towards Queenie's house and then I was on the Mall. I thought the finish line was right down the other end of the Mall so I was elated to see it was sooner! And there it was THE FINISH. I'd bloody done it! Over the line in 3:51:50 a new PB by 8 mins.
 |
| Gold! |
Thank you to everyone who sponsored me, I've raised over £2100 for Tenovus which I'm thrilled with, and thank you to everyone who sent me lovely messages of support and encouragement yesterday and along the way.
If you ran, huge congratulations on your achievement. And if you cheered at home or in person, thank you. You are amazing.
