I bought these bad boys yesterday and will be breaking them in over the next week or so in advance of the Belfast Marathon on 7th May. It will be my third Belfast Marathon and my eighth in total. I’ve never entered a marathon feeling less confident but I’m hoping that new running shoes will give me the boost I need to cover the 26.2 miles in my target time of sub four hours. We shall see.
This post just induced anxiety about my run tomorrow that the slow bus willl pick me up and I will have a DNF. This is so irrational as that has never happened and I have trained for the stupid marathon. BAHAHAHA. Happy Birthday!
You will be awesome in your new kicks. You’ll run like a superhero I just know it. My littlest guys claim to run better with new shoes, so you will too.
Hurrah! I seriously think you’re the first Norn Iron person I’ve met on here. At last someone who will understand me 😂 Thank you. It could be snowing tomorrow knowing this country!
Ha Ha small world. I’m from Omagh originally but live in a little village called Aghalee, about 20 miles from Belfast where I work. My mum still lives in Omagh though.
As I keep saying, you WILL do it (under 4!) 🤗🤗🤗

Oh no need for that. I’d only fall off it and probably injure the two of us.

I’m a scrawny bird, but I’d rather not be a flattened, scrawny bird. It’s ok, I don’t think you’d fall off 😊
