Emily's Story
I’ve always said I’d never run, though last september encouraged by sister running long distances and a desire to change my lifestyle after 3 cesarian babies and and one operation in 4 years.
I started running v excited couldn’t wait to get back despite pains in legs, I really wanted to go to New York to support my sister but couldn’t due to having a 4 month old baby. anything like that!! While my sister was out in new york I found myself wanting to run a marathon with her and actually agreed to run the new york next year!! When my sister came back from New York in November we were so excited that we were going to run the nyc marathon together!! and I couldn’t believe I would be able to tell everyone that I was going to run a marathon!!!!!
After being ill over Christmas and New Year i started running longer distances, applied for the marathon and started getting in other types of exercise at the gym and swimming
I felt awesome, so much fitter and healthier, I got the runners bug! bugging my sister to go out. I’m so excited, now I’m running up to 12 miles and I can see new york in my sights I’ve come a really long way and its made me really happy, I cant wait to go to New York for the holiday even though I will be running a marathon!!!
Katie doesn’t stop talking about the atmosphere, the people, the music, the support and the marathon buzz in NY so I’m excited to be achieving this once in a lifetime life changing experience and see and enjoy NY at one of its best times of the year.
I will be running with wai ling who will keep me going through the difficult times my personal tainer keeps telling me about the wall!!!! I don’t like the walll!!! hes going to carry my kitchen sink!!!
I’ve started working on speed now in my training sessions which I’m finding hard and I’m loosing my weight that have been wanting to loose from having the 3 children!!!! etc, weight that will stay off not just a crash diet this is a serious lifestyle change.
I also wanted to prove to people that I could run the new york mararthon as there was a few people who said I couldn’t do it!!!!!!!!!! but i can!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
