@walkingwithhercules: I've got to be honest with you... l've definitely been suffering from the post marathon blues the last few days. It's been 8 days since I completed London Marathon and whilst it was one of the best days of my life, the last few days have felt a little bit low. 16 weeks of training, planning, sacrifices and work went into that one single day and it really gave me purpose and something by to be working towards, so it's pretty expected to feel a bit lost afterwards. But after sitting with them thoughts, I came to realise that's the beauty in the marathon. That all the work and effort wasn't for that one race. It was for the character development, the strength and the progress we made in that journey. And by taking them lessons into the rest of our lives, the purpose we felt continues on and we become stronger in so many other areas than just running. So if you are feeling a little low post race day, just remember how far you have come and be happy thinking about how much you learnt for not just the next race, but about yourself and your capabilities along the way. And go and out there and get moving, I think we tend to stop still because our training block is over and we are recovering but don't underestimate the power of even a nice walk. For me, now it's time to get stuck into the rest of the challenges I've got to tick off on my "30@30" list, so it's straight back to work. But I'II be back for another dance with the marathon sooner rather than later.. #Running #runningmotivation #runner #training #runner #marathon #runners
