Everyone in marathon mode…
I’m unbothered, just here for a good time ✨

Wind + random guy understood the assignment (paid actors 😉)

Officially a marathon runner 🏃🏻‍♀️

Still taking it all in. Running my first marathon at the @brightonmarathonweekend while raising funds for @myuhsussex (supporting Sussex hospitals) made every step meaningful. As a healthcare worker, I see how much this support matters—so it was an honour to run for them (and hopefully volunteer with them in the future).

From early mornings to long runs, sore legs to physio appointments—and somehow learning how to eat three breakfasts just to survive training 😅

Training was tough, but race day? Pure magic. The energy, the people, the atmosphere… unreal. Met amazing people, felt all the emotions, and crossed that finish line smiling.

So grateful for everyone I met along the way, and for all the support and donations 💙

Closing this chapter with a full heart—and maybe slightly traumatised by pre-run meals 😂 
Onto the next race with @asiangirls.run 🏃‍♀️✨ taken in Brighton by @eileenben_

My first marathon @brightonmarathonweekend was definitely a party! I’m still on a marathon high — feeling so good about it. The run was tough, but the crowd was incredible! So many photos, videos, and people to thank and celebrate, but I’ll start here :)

PJs on. Mile done. Guinness World Record achieved 🏆✨

Such a fun day with my little crew at the @westminstermile ! 🩷🧸👧🏻🧑🏻‍🦱🧒🏻

We did it — We’re officially in the @guinnessworldrecords for participating at the largest number of people wearing Pyjamas to complete a mile run 🎉

Although I don’t think my children fully understand what that actually means yet 😂🫣 taken in London, United Kingdom by @eileenben_

#MedalMonday with my gang 😎🥇

We had such a busy weekend! 💙

Saturday, Sofia joined her bestie for @worthing_sc charity swimming gala and had her very first diving session — and honestly, unreal! 🏊🏻‍♀️ She came away with a few bruises from the impact, but absolutely smashed it! So proud of her! 🥹👏🏼

Then, on a sunny Sunday morning, we ran the @littlehampton_10k Family Mile. Gorgeous day for a race! ☀️🏃🏻‍♀️

Dropped the kids off with Dad, then headed straight to work… where I ended up being one of the patients 😅💉

A busy but very well-spent weekend keeping active! I love seeing my feed full of race photos — so inspiring! Autumn race season has definitely begun! 🍂🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♂️

Bring on the races @asiangirls.run! 🥇 by @eileenben_
