Running my first marathon - what did I learn?

On New Years Eve 2018 I ran the Flitch Way Marathon in Essex. I was running my first marathon and I had no idea what to expect from the experience, my legs or my mind! It really was unknown territory.

The aim for me was to alleviate my own fears before the London Marathon in April. And I also thought I could alleviate other peoples fears if they saw what I went through in an honest and (hopefully) relatable account via the trusty GoPro.

If you're training for your first marathon or even just thinking about it, this vlog could help you understand what happens during a marathon, how to get through it and how to prepare for it.

While I realise not everyone is the same or responds the same, there will hopefully be something for everyone to take away from this.

Please enjoy my pain in the hope it will lessen yours. The experience helped me hugely. Full steam ahead London! Get yourself subscribed and follow the journey.
