Mummy

If you go down to the woods today…

October 20, 2019 by Louise Leave a Comment

If you go down to the woods today you might find a little mummy running away from the monkeys and into the woods for her first trial run for a very long time. Watch out for the muddy puddles and big smiles because it was awesome!

The return of the last runner

October 6, 2019 by Louise Leave a Comment

Today my blog renewed and I also ran my first 5k for a very long time. I know it has been quiet for a while and I’ll be honest I haven’t been happily frolicking in a Pinterest perfect life. I mean who does? Regardless here I am starting over again. As I ran today I … [Read more…]

What my daughter teaches me about being a woman

March 10, 2018 by Louise 31 Comments

Today is Mother’s Day and last week it was International Women’s Day. Days when we celebrate the strong women in our lives. Since I became a mother to a daughter I have felt my parental responsibilities more acutely. Not just to her but also her brothers. They will learn from her and me about how … [Read more…]

Food for thought

February 18, 2018 by Louise 1 Comment

Just because it looks easy on instagram it really isn’t. Especially not when the monkeys are about.

Spaghetti head

October 30, 2017 by Louise Leave a Comment

I’m a mess. My brain is like a bowl of spaghetti. A big jumbled tangle of thoughts and feelings all leading nowhere. I would love to separate them all out and straighten them one by one. Observe them and understand them. Then chose to keep or discard them. This is what I thought Mindfulness would … [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). The same day I got my foot diagnosis, I had an assessment of my neck and shoulder. The conclusion? Wear and … [Read more…]

Recovery starts in the brain and the body

August 6, 2017 by Louise Leave a Comment

Have you ever felt like you have fallen to the bottom of your 'To Do List'? Or even fallen off it? I recently realised that, despite what I thought, I was not giving me the time I really deserved. The physical injuries I have sustained over the last few months have been testimony to this … [Read more…]

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…]
