Easter Monday: I meant to post this as soon as I got out of the car last month, but evidently I forgot to blog it.
However, nothing’s changed and I still feel the same about everything that I talk about in this video - especially with regards to the people who have influenced my attitude and running achievements over the last few months. Namely, Charlie Dark and Bangs - Papa and Mama...

I'm not out running...
But I want to be :(
(what have I become?!)
I’ve got pains in my lower legs that I need to get checked out. Everyone is saying shin splints. If everyone is right then I’m going to cry. Regardless, I’m not running for the next two or three weeks because, ultimately, you can’t really go wrong with resting aching limbs.
The thing is, now that I shouldn’t be...

Running (or the lack thereof).
It’s been a week since I put on running shoes to run in. I’ve just been wearing my new LunarEclipse+ 2 trainers around like they’re just a normal Sportswear trainer, wearing them at every opportunity. Other than Frees and LunarRacers, these are the first running model in the last few years that I’ve really, REALLY loved. I kind of don’t want to run in them so they...
Anonymous asked: Hi Sarah, it's Nikki from VLM and Nike Store. Thanks for the mention on your site. Wasn't sure how to post anything so thought I would let you know that we all finished safe .. Me in 4.32, Claire in 4.54 and Emma in 5.09. We saw and heard your crew at mile 21 but didn't see you but the support was amazing .. Only sad thing was, of course the death of the poor young girl during the...

I think you should all know that I just ran my fastest ever mile. Yes, I’m aware that I started my run at 11pm but I’ve been restless all day, wanting to run all week and couldn’t get a bloody Boris Bike earlier to cycle home from work. Someone on the other side of the ocean suggested I try and get a quick 3km in the bag. So I ran.
I’ve been trying to get below the 10...

If you’re running the marathon tomorrow, firstly, GOOD LUCK! Secondly, look out for the Run Dem Crew stations at mile 17 and 24 and the main station at mile 21 on Commercial Road.
Thank you for reading this blog, I really appreciate it and I’ll be cheering for you tomorrow!
Please email or tweet me if you see the Run Dem Crew family tomorrow. We’re going to be out in force to...

Nikki, Claire and Emma.
Today I designed a great pair of trainers with a woman called Nikki who is running the marathon with two of her friends. Now that I’ve made it through a half marathon, I actually have something to say to runners. We have something in common at last! So it was really lovely chatting to these three women, asking what they’ll be wearing and how they were feeling.
I wish you the best of...

Your marathon...
This weekend the Virgin London Marathon will mean that roads will be blocked and crowds will be cheering for strangers. Tens of thousands of runners will be pushing through mental barriers and the 26.2 mile route of city asphalt. Having (kind of) trained and then having (kind of) ran my first half marathon a few weeks ago, my experience and understanding of the commitment an individual has to go...

Sunday 8th April - train to Paris...
(Sorry this is late, I forgot that I wrote it)…
A week after my first half marathon in Berlin I’m on a train back in Europe, with someone for whom running has quite vastly changed their life and perspective in the last three years for the better. My life is coloured by friends, some of them relatively new, who share the same view and this has definitely had a positive impact on the way...
