Occupation

Was a teacher, currently a stay at home mummy!

Favourite distance

Half marathon.

Favourite race (and why)

Ealing half….only volunteered at it so far but running it next week. Love it because of the atmosphere!

My pet hate in running...

When I struggle for no apparent reason.

What I love most about running...

The feeling everything can just wait as you run, particularly on picturesque downhill sections!

My best piece of running advice...

Don't go out too fast!

Why you should follow me as a pacer...

I haven't been a runner that long and I remember the nerves all too well. I think I can be reassuring and positive throughout.

No one knows that I...

Get stupidly nervous when I am properly racing!
