Waar we nu staannn..

Luna is sinds begin juni weer gestopt met eten. Dus ik voer haar weer bij. Dit is niet dwang of, zo voelt het niet. Ze zit bij mij, ik leg het pippetje in haar snavel en vraag of ze wilt helpen. Zij doet haar tong naar beneden en ik kom erbij :).

Ik weet niet goed waarom ze nu niet zelfstandig eet maar, ja. De ups & downs horen erbij. Ik had alleen niet verwacht een 'down/dipje' mee te maken waarbij ze niet meer zelfstandig zou eten. Misschien heeft ze ook moeite met de hitte. Dat ze daarom met haar ziektebeeld + medicatie, geen behoefte heeft aan eten.

Het voordeel voor haar (qua portomonee, nadeel voor mij) is dat ik haar nu pap met Emeraid. Een top-notch aansterk papje, speciaal gemaakt zodat het zo licht mogelijk op de maag valt. Dit krijgt ze nu sinds 2 weken en valt verder goed. Zoals je ziet, struint ze weer lekker rond en doet der dingetje :p.

Oh meisje toch. Ik herken deels wel dat een dergelijke gezondheidssituatie (tommy en zijn IBD/gluten intolerantie) enorm met ups en downs gaat. Je doet het super goed en pakt het gewoon zonder "gedoe" op om haar zelf te voeren. Emeraid (Lafeber) is idd lekker aan de prijs. Sterkte en knuffel! 🙌🏻

Happy #Halloween, Blue Jays fans!
🎃 We hope it’s a fa-BOO-lous one 👻

First Backyard Ultra ✔️ 12 Yards, 50 miles, 80k ish.

First and foremost, what an incredible experience to do this event which I never would’ve dreamed of doing even last year. Never mind to do it alongside so many great people and have so much support from friends, family and the Sculpt team throughout.

Shoutout to @zone5events for putting on an incredible show with Endure the Moor.

In terms of the actual race I have mixed emotions if I’m being totally honest.

Coming from a Strength background originally I’ve never ran more than a marathon, so I’m proud to gain a distance PB and hit 50 miles which is a big milestone for me.

During the race I knew I wasn’t feeling myself from about lap 6 onwards and having Gastroenteritis all of last week I knew it was going to turn into an uphill battle. From lap 8/9 I started being sick or wretching each lap and after that my head was gone.

No excuses as you play the cards you are dealt, but I can’t help but feel a little disappointed that this held me back more than my legs.

Wanted to at least get to 100km and tick that off the bucket list but under the circumstances I was actually proud of the effort for getting through 3-4 more hours feeling like that.

So proud, but not satisfied. But every outcome is a lesson to build on.

Now for the thank yous.. first of all @jc_performancecoaching for the last few months of coaching, feeling on top of the world for Budapest marathon, and pulling me round those last few laps.

A special shoutout to @mattydickinsoncoaching for crewing me, and being as enthusiastic as ever while force feeding us and watching us run round in circles.

My friends, family and the sculpt team who came down and showed their support during the race. You know who yous are. 🫶

And of course my @laurawoodsy for putting up with me these last few months for one last hurrah (or two) and supporting me every single day with the training and work load and of course sitting with me on the day weeks out from baby number two.. I love you loads x

Now time to recharge from the last few months, get ready for the real endurance challenge and add our next addition to our little team. 👼🤍

November is Epilepsy Awareness Month 💜

I’ve gone back and forth about sharing this because, for a long time, epilepsy was just a part of my life that I kept pretty private.

There are so many parts of someone’s story that you can’t see just by looking at them. The fears they’ve carried, the things they’ve had to learn to live with, the moments that have changed them, and the strength they’ve had to find along the way.

Epilepsy is one of those parts of my story.

It has taught me that strength doesn’t always look like being fearless. Sometimes strength is learning how to live fully even when there are things you can’t control. It’s choosing to keep dreaming, laughing, loving people, and showing up for your life without knowing exactly what tomorrow will hold.

There have been moments when I wished this wasn’t part of my story. But looking back, I can also see how much it has shaped the way I see life. It has made me more grateful for ordinary days, more aware of what other people may be carrying silently, and more appreciative of every opportunity I get to do what I love.

Most importantly, I’ve learned that having epilepsy does not make me any less capable, strong, or myself.

I’m still learning. I’m still growing. And I’m still trusting God with the parts of my story that I don’t always understand.

So this month, I’m sharing a piece of mine in hopes that someone else feels a little less alone — and as a reminder to be kind. You truly never know what someone is fighting behind the scenes. 💜

Epilepsy is a part of my story.
It is not the definition of it.
