@elmint: ⭐️episode 2 of the marathon diaries: I’m flying to the other side of the world for my first race..? The thought of any kind of running race absolutely TERRIFIES me - honestly think I have deep rooted trauma from my Half Marathon in 2023 lol😵💫 I literally SWORE I was never going to race again and here we are training for a marathon lol xx The last time I started running I rushed into racing so quickly that I never had the chance to actually enjoy running so the main goal this time round was to not do that hahaha BUT because I haven’t raced since the half, my anxiety around races is EVEN WORSE - so a huge part of training for the marathon is getting as many races as possible under my belt!! and I guess we have to start somewhere🥲 and why not make it something more exciting in one of my fav cities in the world!! See ya with my trainers on in 6 days Sydney🇦🇺 LOVE YA el xxx
