So I've been away from the blog for a while...with good reason! I've been training for a half-marathon! And this morning, I completed it with my friend, Lola aka Africanremy (also has an awesome blog and instagram). Check her out!
So I signed up for this run with only 5 weeks to go before the run. So I got my long distance Nike's on and went for a 15km run! Good! Still got it! Then started training properly!
Training
I ran all over my part of London and a bit further afield. I did my lame version of carbo-loading (pasta and efo or rice and something else). I had some help (from a friend or two taking me out for meals!). I tapered my weekly miles down to 24 the week before the run and did no running the day beforehand to be fully rested.

As the fateful day approached, I still had heart flutters at the thought but used my training manuals to prepare for the morning. I gave a healthy hair talk at a church meeting on the Saturday beforehand (to ease my nerves and help me forget about the run). It was a good day of rest!

I even went to bed by midnight!!! Seriously, that's early for me! Up by 6am and at the venue at 8:30am.

The Event
It was a lovely event! Truly awesome (shucks, I said it)! I ran it in 1 hour 58 mins and change. It was great to get a text confirming my time (I already knew from my Runtastic app though..lol!). There were a lot of hills though: it was a good thing I did some Primrose Hill runs so I had perspective.. aka not as steep! lol!

So business should resume as usual! I have a weekend in Paris coming up, by God's grace, for the Natural Hair Academy 2015. And I'm considering another mini-break! Oh, and another half-marathon: Canada with a friend who resides there and/or the Hackney Half-marathon!

Thanks for reading and enjoy the pictures of my neurotic running addiction and the big day! Recipe of the week to come next!

Thank God I trusted Doctor Odunga to bring my ex husband back after 4 years of separation. Before I met Doctor Odunga I searched many websites looking for ways to get my ex husband back after leaving me for another woman. I was devastated but Doctor Odunga gave me hope and assurance that he will be brought back to me. After casting the spell, within 24 hours my husband called to tell me that he is coming back home to me and our two kids. The next day he arrived home and I was very happy to meet him again. I am using this means to appreciate Doctor Odunga for what he did for me and also helping serious minded ones who want to get their loved ones back. Contact Doctor Odunga at [email protected] OR Whats-app him at +2348167159012

I got the doctors Email and i emailed him, he got back to me with some encouraging words, he got me some herbs cream which i use for just 8 days and i began to feel the enlargement of my penis, and without surgery.

    Hey there!
    I'm Lola - a hair obsessed doctor who stumbled into running long distances and baking all the cupcakes.

    I blog about life, running and of course, hair! I'm an AltraRunCrew sponsored Athlete and a "RADRabbit" with Rabbit athletic gear, so I will do the occasional running shoe review.
