You can do this for sure. Just keep being smart and don't push yourself to the point of injury!!
Disney Magic will pull you through!!
Hope you're feeling better and that you have a great week!
You can do it- getting to the starting line healthy is the most important, so take care of yourself!
PS @Ariel484 ... I've missed your journal! Ready to reopen it?
I hope your week is going well! I'm glad you didn't get another hamstring tear, and I hope you are feeling good!
I've been loving your vlogs btw. They've been my "preparing dinner" videos
4th September - 19th September
Final two weeks of running before the Disneyland Paris Half Marathon went pretty OK. I continued with my short/easy runs mid week keeping my distance at a max of around the 3miles. I was really happy to get to spend a week working from home in Dublin which meant I could run with Dad and Rachel.
I had a physio appointment while I was home also, I actually went for a run the morning of my appointment but pulled up as I could feel tightness in my hamstring and decided I was better to wait and see what the physio said than risk an injury the week before Disney. I was really nervous for the appointment BUT luckily she said it was just some lingering tightness, needled the area and told me to rest it for a couple of days but to continue with my final 'long' run on the Saturday.
Saturday came and I went out with Dad for my last longish run. We managed 8k as I was still a bit sore from the needling but was really happy with the run overall.
Rachel arrived on the 19th of September in London as we were getting the Eurostar on the 20th direct to Disney. I felt very anxious about the races, particularly because we had a nighttime 5k followed by a morning 10k and then the half the final morning which seemed like a lot for the little mileage I'd bagged.
I'll have to keep you waiting for the weekend recap but here's a pic of us waiting to hit the expo!

You go, girl! Nothing like a good training week to build up your confidence.
And, brain sync! I used that same Self Five gif in the update I just posted. LOL
Yay for a great update! So glad you're feeling better!
THe
The suspense is killing me! Can't wait to hear all about it- hope you had a great time!
That's awesome!! So happy to hear you're feeling good! And I can't imagine how cool it would be to run in King's Cross on 9/1 (the day Hogwarts students return to school)
