Good morning everybody! Feeling fresh? I hope so! So I thought I would start off the day by sharing the photos of me and my dad running through the streets of New York! If anybody had any doubt about whether or not I was telling the truth (I know I don’t really look like a marathon runner kind of girl!), you may now see proof of both my medal and my running! The most magical feeling during this race was when we ran out of Central Park on to 7th avenue and through time square. That was honestly magnificent! We had the whole square to ourselves, such a novelty!

I would definitely recommend running a half marathon, a marathon or any kind of race which would be a challenge to you. It’s so rewarding when you have crossed the finish line and know you have given it your best shot! Not so nice the days after when you can’t walk properly, but, no pain, no gain! Enjoy your day everybody no matter if you are running, swimming or relaxing in a sunbed!

Hello Everyone! So, a bit of a recap of my time spent in New York! As you know I went to a Boxing Match on Saturday evening, however, I (as oblivious as I am) did not realise that was for the World Champion Middleweight Title. The fight was Sergio Martinez (current champion) against Matthew Macklin in Madison Square Garden on St. Patrick’s day. This was a fantastic show completely packed with Irish people to support Macklin, however, Sergio protected and kept his title. This is something I definitely recommend doing in New York, it was so much fun! The next morning I had to get up extremely early to run the New York Half Marathon. That was a great experience! Not only did I get to run through Central Park (which was gorgeous), I got to run through Times Square and see it not packed with people! Definitely a “To Do” on any Bucket List! The rest of the day was spent walking like a cripple, buying a well-deserved two pair of shoes from Saks Fifth Avenue and walking around Central Park! I hope you are having a good time!
