#118: Belfast marathon recap - the full story of running a marathon PB 6 months after my T1 diabetes diagnosis

from The Running Rules Podcast · host Alan Ladd

This week's episode is a full rundown of my Belfast marathon race with a lot of takeaways to share. This one was always meant to be a bit of an experiment but thanks to all your support I was able to run a race I thought wasn't possible 6 months ago.Being diagnosed with T1 diabetes meant I had to rethink things I had taken for granted and initially I had variable success. But as I got things a bit more under control, I started to believe a bit more.I talk about the ups and downs of Belfast both literally and metaphorically, how I executed my race strategy and the things that went wrong too.A massive thanks to everyone who helped me through my diagnosis, sent me messages of support or cheered for me on the course. A special thanks to my coach Jonny @jm_run_coaching and of course Louise and the boys.If you want to improve in your next race and want personalised help in training, nutrition and mindset designed to get you faster, further and stronger straight away, message me at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/therunningrules⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or see ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.therunningrules.com/coaching⁠
