I had some pretty lofty goals for 2024. Im a well established dreamer and goal setter and 99% of the time I occupy the seat of the perpetually disappointed, making it easy to fall into the routine of “why bother”. After all, My Spotify wrapped was described as mallgoth, emo with a significant sprinkling of … Continue reading 2024: a year in running
If I could say anything about 2023, it would be, well at least I tried. It didn’t go perfectly and I fell short of my goals a few times but I’m pretty proud of the fact that I kept getting up again and trying to fix all the mistakes. Looking back on the year, it’s … Continue reading 2023: a year in running
I sound old. I can't believe it's November already. It goes so fast and yet so slow, kinda like running an ultramarathon really! According to my Garmin, October has been my biggest running milage month of the year so far with 330 km run. That's even with the extra rest day I took yesterday (the … Continue reading How its going: October 2023

Comparison my friends, is a bitch. The kicker is that when used correctly comparison can make you feel like you have your shit sorted … Continue reading How it’s going: June ‘23 in Review
If I had to describe May in one word: chaos. I feel like May was a lot for me. I’m physically, mentally and emotionally exhausted. There was a lot of stress and general busyness at work with UTA thrown in the middle. I used rest days I had banked up to go to UTA and … Continue reading How it’s going: May ‘23 review
Let’s just admit right here that me doing this two months in a row is an accomplishment right here! Welcome to How it’s going, my month in review post. Last month was the first edition, so hopefully I can learn and grow with each month. March was all about the rebuilding after the storm that … Continue reading How it’s going: April ‘23 in review
I’m going to try something new. My planner has a page at the end of every month that has a collection of reflective questions. They mostly centre around things you achieved in the month, things/people you are grateful for and the baby steps you took towards your higher goals. To be honest I usually skip … Continue reading How it’s going: March ’23 in review
