Ellie's thoughts, hopes and dreams. Life is about turning a negative into a positive! Thursday, 18 August 2011. Hiya guys, it's been a long time and a tough road but I'm back on track and have lots of news. It's been a tough year and I've decided to pick up 'the pen' again.

Ellie's thoughts, hopes and dreams. Life is about turning a negative into a positive! Saturday, 10 May 2014. Where did that time go? Well here we are with just 2 weeks to go before the Edinburgh Marathon Festival 2014. My number has arrived and on Saturday 24th May I shall be travelling up to Edinburgh. Already the nerves are starting to kick in, so here I am sat looking back at the last 6 or so months to see just how I got to this point. So many people have asked me 'Are you insane? You must be barmy!

Ellie's thoughts, hopes and dreams. Life is about turning a negative into a positive! Tuesday, 5 May 2015. My legs are back to normal but my body and mind have given up, I'm on that marathon low - feeling down and blue so I thought I'd write about my experience. With my bags packed and ready we took Benji to school before heading to Paragon Station on Friday morning. And he shouted 'Good luck mummy, you can do it! Had I trained hard enough? Would my legs see me through? Would my lungs see me through?

Ellie's thoughts, hopes and dreams. Life is about turning a negative into a positive! Monday, 27 January 2014. From starting my journey I have always found that it's helped to set myself challenges, it's helped to keep me focused and thriving to do better and achieve more. This morning I've been reflecting on just how far I've come since that very first challenge was set and how it feels working towards my latest one. After my last surgery I was desperate to train again, I missed it and wanted to be back...

Ellie's thoughts, hopes and dreams. Life is about turning a negative into a positive! Monday, 24 February 2014. A year in the life of a Fitmum! Although I started my healthy eating lifestyle in 2009 after losing my Dad, my running only really stepped up a notch last year. Previous to 2013 I had done 10k, 5k's and half marathons but never ran 'all the way' instead opting to run/walk interval them to the finish line. That was opening near my home and decided to go along. My life took another dip when in Ju...

So why raise money? I have to say that the support and backing I've had so far on my Whopping challenge has been immense. From cheerleaders, to runners, to sponsors and even messages and texts of support. I've been overwhelmed by people's generosity and truly touched by their words. I laughed at the time but they are act...

Ellie's thoughts, hopes and dreams. Life is about turning a negative into a positive! Sunday, 19 April 2015. Just one word . WOW! I'm now sat here thinking, was Edinburgh Marathon really last week? I had been nervous for a good 2-3 weeks leading up to race day. I was emotionally drained without the added trauma of questioning whether I was fit enough, whether I had worked hard enough, eaten correctly, hydrated and all the usual fears that creep into the mind of a marathon runner. The apartment was in the...

Ellie's thoughts, hopes and dreams. Life is about turning a negative into a positive! Sunday, 28 July 2013. Time to set that challenge. It's now been two weeks since Ray had his aortic aneurism repair and its been a tough couple of weeks both mentally and physically. We've had amazing support and help from our friends around us and I really can't thank them enough for being around, helping in any way they possibly can even if its just with a hug or a cup of tea. Xxx. Has however left me feeling in need o...
