    I am SO proud of you for just walking those last kilometers!! You have grown SO much in the last couple years. I remember you pushing through all signs your body would ever give you and look at you now! Listening to your body and still being so proud of the accomplishment - as you should!! What an accomplishment. Congratulations to you both. Hopefully you'll feel a lot better soon once you've had plenty of rest again✨

    congratulations! about the sickness, i am experiencing that right now too after traveling all over europe. do you think it’s sun/heat sickness? all of the symptoms you described i’ve had and the only way i could get them to go away was by cooling off for more than 6 hours inside and hydrating constantly (sipping water/sports drinks). i got more nauseous being outside at all and the longer i was outside, the longer i was nauseous indoors. i have been fairly hydrated too-more than 2 litres of fluids a day.

    CONGRATS TO YOU HOLLY AND ANGELO!! You guys did so well 🎉
    PS. Kudos to Angelo for throwing those cups in the proper trash bin. I participated in some marathons before and it gets really messy after bc of those cups.

    • @HollyGabrielle
      @HollyGabrielle  Рік тому +3

      thank youuuuuuuu!!!! 🤩 and we both tried to get them in the bin, because as you said, it is super chaotic 🙈🙈🙈

    I'm from Singapore and many people have told me that if you can survive a race in Sg, you can race anywhere. Now watching you run, it is definitely true. The heat and humidity can really make one slower... much slower.

    Oh you should have met up with Ben and Mary from This Messy Happy. They won the marathon relay. They’ve lived in Thailand for a few years now so they have acclimatised to the insane heat. Well done on pushing through, that looked tough 🥵🥵

    Well done Holly- fab effort. Take some time to rest up! Maybe a trail hilly ultra marathon as your next challenge? Haha- I would actually really recommend! Just a heads up most road races have officially banned headphones now (including Berlin Marathon).

    • @HollyGabrielle
      @HollyGabrielle  Рік тому +1

      thanks amy!! and ahhh YESSSS we are looking for ultras in asia but there don't seem to be too many 🤨 but we are still looking 😉

      I live in Derbyshire and there's loads here. It'd probably be a much better experience in the Uk as they are so common its a really nice community vibe (and cooler weather!)

  • @maxbyrne851
    @maxbyrne851 8 місяців тому

    I know how tough it is. I ran phayao lake 10k and samui half which was on the same day as your race. The heat and humidity is mental. Great experience. Next stop halong bay heritage marathon on 19th nov

    Holly, it is not too surprising that you had difficulty running this marathon. What you should also realize that Thailand is always very hot and humid 12 months a year and you are not used to running in this type of weather. You are more used to standard English weather in which the temperatures are on the cooler side. Did you and Angelo win the race?

  • @laurenmillyx

    your boyfriend is very very tolerant !
    he have a right for that you with swim experience teach him , friendship means to change skill's that a inner circle person is close to each ( genauso gut wie jemand selbst 🇩🇪)
    cold water with a wirl of warm water (sub tropic clima zone) and your boyfriend can become a heart attack and are you holly so strong to rescue him (rettung's schwimmerin) ? he need #Seepferdchen /seahorse status at minimum
    387 gbp for a massage gun 😮 - how many gallon's can be for refill 100 octane 🤗 likewise the second akku pack is a nice agreement for that massage gun - sorry to expensive or are the 387 £ divide angelo and you ?
