    What a fantastically enjoyable and inspirational video Amy. Well done on such a quick time.
    Going to show this video to my daughter Anja, who has just started her training plan for next year's London Marathon. After 12 previous unsuccessful applications in the ballot, she finally got in on her 13th try. She has actually decided to run it in aid of the Motor Neurone Disease Association..... which has become closer to her heart after one of my best friends was diagnosed in July 2023.
    In a lot of ways she is quite like you Amy. Seems to doubt herself...... but always perseveres. She'll find this video very motivating for sure.

I’ve been watching your videos for a while now and I must say it’s a pleasure to see such a lovely couple doing the things they love the best. I’m loving the mix of the cycling and now your running, are we doing swimming next and then maybe a triathlon ? You seem to have a good circle of friends around you and great support from Kyle which is nice to see, also love to see chilled out Chester my kind of dog. You must of had some influence on me as now if I pass a field on my bike or in the car I can’t help but call out Sheepies !!!. Stay safe you two and hope you have a wonderful Christmas and new year, until the next one. Steve.

    Very brave Amy but try Moleskin foot tape, maybe now is a good time to become a product tester, I would also check the type of sock wear and whether your trainers have a seam which is aggravating the soft and wet skin. Running is a tough sport, well done Amy.
