Feel the fear and sit tight: World Mental Health Day

October 10, 2017 by Louise 5 Comments

Despite my writing about mental health publicly and always knowing that my mental health is temperamental, I have never before sought a diagnosis. I will freely admit that the reason has been fear. Fear that a diagnosis would be my undoing and the fear of the stigma. This year my injury lead to a major … [Read more…]

I’m getting older not old

October 2, 2017 by Louise 1 Comment

Finally I have a diagnosis on my foot!!! Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction. Does it mean I will never run again? Not straight away, maybe not for a while but Yes!!! (Insert happy dance here).

An 11th Junior-Parkrun: Well done Middle Monkey

July 18, 2017 by Louise 2 Comments

One of my goals this year, before injury, was to get my older monkeys running. They are naturally outdoorsy and always full of energy that needs burning off for a happier and more peaceful life. The plan was Junior-Parkrun. Every Sunday, 9am an organised 2k run in a park a short drive from our house. … [Read more…]

Sometimes it is ok to shout STOP The Monkey Train!!!

July 15, 2017 by Louise Leave a Comment

Since I returned to work after my third and final maternity leave I have felt like life has just sped up. Like I’m living the same day over and over at the same time as being bombarded with never ending, mundane and taxing demands, intermittently interrupted by moments of heart meltingly wonderful monkey moments and … [Read more…]

Injury Limbo and Lost Identity

June 30, 2017 by Louise Leave a Comment

At the beginning of 2017, there was a plan. In fact there were a few plans. They were good and exciting plans. Then I got injured and the plans went on hold. Then the injury turned out to be much worse than expected so the plans were abandoned. For this year at least. So I … [Read more…]

Team Mummy Duathlon

June 23, 2017 by Louise Leave a Comment

One of the things I never truly appreciated before I became a parent was the need to find solidarity with other parents. From those first tentative, sleep deprived steps into the baby groups, to the first time you hold a little hand into the school yard. The importance of making new connections with those around … [Read more…]

This notebook will change my life.

May 9, 2017 by Louise Leave a Comment

Now I love a bit of stationery. New pens, pencil cases, pencils, post it notes. Oh the excitement. But the queen of all stationery for me is the notebook. The new clean crisp pages. Ready for my careful pen strokes, ideas jotted down, experiences recorded, to do lists compiled and neatly crossed off. The possibilities … [Read more…]

Come on monkeys let’s get our heads-together

April 22, 2017 by Louise Leave a Comment

Have you ever considered the mental health of your monkeys alongside their physical health? My goals this year include running for my monkeys, with my monkeys and sometimes away from my monkeys. The reasons for this is mental health. I want to run for them by setting a good example for them. I want to … [Read more…]
