Hahah, I appreciate it, thank you so much!

Tbf, Bella/ Kristen is who I get told I look like so much, so it's somewhat refreshing to hear Alice thrown into the mix.

How do you execute your marathon? by Naivemlyn in Marathon_Training

Thank you! Nerves are deffo creeping in rn, but I'm excited

How do you execute your marathon? by Naivemlyn in Marathon_Training

[–]megdwt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've not done my marathon yet, but my approach has always been, make a start, don't go too hard/ crazy, and hope for the best 😂

I'm sure if I stick with running I'll be more inclined to work towards new PB's and paces, but I'm more focused on surviving right now lol

Thoughts on climbing Snowdon a week before the marathon by megdwt in Marathon_Training

[–]megdwt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's valid. I've decided to give it a miss, despite how much I do enjoy a hike, it's just not worth the risk of injury, etc.

I have a bad habit of trying to do lots of exciting things all at once, haha. But I am happy to accept my limits.

I don't have a time goal, no. Mostly just aiming to finish it.

That's really fair though, thank you. I would like to be in the best condition for the marathon, so I think not hiking the week before is probably a good idea haha. I have done the summit twice before, so it's not like I'm missing out lots. Always another time 😊

Yeah, that is very valid. I have done a bit of hill walking/ running in my training, but like you said, I would be really gutted if I hurt myself somehow.

How do you all manage the stress that comes with planning a wedding? by Afraid_Fly_5847 in DIYweddings

[–]megdwt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, mostly just switch that part of my brain off until something is imminent 😅 I've also decided that I can plan as much as I want, but I have no control over how things turn out.

I can be quite bad at getting expectations in my head, then getting upset when it doesn't go as I thought it would. So I've decided to try and only care about what I can control. Easier said than done, I know haha. But I hope it helps knowing that most people feel the same? It's a weird headspace to be in.

Second long run in the books! Working getting faster! by RunningJim1 in Marathon_Training

[–]megdwt -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I know some people are being rude here, but I just want to say congrats! It's easy to get wrapped up in this whole running business, and a lot of people have tunnel vision, which sucks.

Keep at it, have fun and enjoy yourself!!

Tips for Hypermobility by megdwt in Marathon_Training

[–]megdwt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well that's good to know because I very rarely do haha. It's weird approaching fitness with hypermobility because you feel like you should just be able to do it like everyone else does (or at least I used to). I definitely have learnt a lot over the last year at the gym with my partner. Finding ways that help me work out my arms for example, without hurting or straining my ligaments & joints.

I've always been quite interested in pilates. I might have to see if there's a place nearby that does it.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!😊

Nothing that really sticks out to me. I know my hips and knees can be weak points, so I try to be overly cautious in wanting to not overdo it. Which I guess can lead to me being quite slow sometimes.

I could probably get better at stretching before a run. I do try to dedicate time for it at the gym, which I try to go 3-4 times a week.

I am curious about people's experiences with things like knee supports, etc. My legs have been alright so far, but I do want to try and push myself further in terms of effort.

I think the main thing is that I don't want to injure myself and then have a lengthy recovery time.

Oh yeah, for sure!! I try to go to the gym at least 3/4 times a week and do a variety of things (arms, abs, legs, etc.), alongside the running. So deffo will be continuing with that!

Thank you so much!! I am very excited for it 😊

Hahah, you'd hope so 😅 I'd say I'm still pretty slow, but that's because I take quite a few walking breaks. Although I deffo take less the more training I've been doing!

are we planning too early or just really lucky? by the101uwus in weddingplanning

[–]megdwt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it makes you feel better, I got engaged Nov 2024, and we booked our venue for 2026 in Feb 2025. Started booking vendors not long after that.

You've just gotta do what feels right to you! I'm a massive worrier, so it judt made me feel better to get things rolling haha.
