Epic run from Leonie at the London Marathon, knocking 17 minutes off her PB running 2.55 and finally going sub-3 on her third attempt! 🏃‍♀️🔥

A huge well done to everyone who ran yesterday. Marathon running is tough—both physically and mentally. It doesn’t always go to plan, but every race is a learning curve. Each one teaches you something new.

As runners, it’s easy to get caught up in times and judge performances purely on the clock. That can be hard when goals aren’t hit—especially if training hasn’t gone perfectly or injury has got in the way.

This time, Leonie approached the race differently. Of course, she had a time in mind, but the main goal was to perform with no regrets—to execute the race as well as possible, give everything, and be proud of the effort rather than the outcome. And most importantly… to enjoy it.

Mission accomplished—with a smile for 95% of the race 😊

Celebrations are underway… for now—until the next goal is set 👀

Wishing the very best of luck to everyone taking on the London Marathon tomorrow and a special shout out to Leonie who is also running tomorrow! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

All those early mornings, long runs, and miles are in the bank—this is your moment. Trust your training, stay strong, and soak up the atmosphere 👊

Good luck to everyone taking on the Manchester Marathon tomorrow!

The hard work is done after the long winter of training through the cold and wet.

The miles are in the bank now.

Trust your training, enjoy the crowds and soak up the atmosphere.

Let us know how you get on! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

What we’ve seen in clinic this week at Accelerate Physiotherapy: 👀

• Runner’s knee
• Achilles pain
• Calf strains
• Plantar fasciitis

All very common issues we see in runners and active people, particularly when training load starts to increase.

Training the body is important. Training the brain is just as important.

Many runners know the feeling…
Your legs are fine, but the voice in your head starts saying:

“Slow down.”
“This is too hard.”
“Maybe stop.”

Dr Steve Peters describes this as the chimp brain — the emotional part of the brain that reacts quickly and sometimes irrationally.

Learning to recognise it and manage it can make a huge difference to performance.

Just like muscles, the mind can be trained too.

🚨 Marathon Taper Support Sessions 🚨
(formerly known as physiotherapy appointments).

Designed to help runners cope with the final two weeks before race day:

• Phantom niggles that appeared overnight
• Googling symptoms at midnight
• Convincing yourself you’ve suddenly lost all your fitness
• Deciding a slightly tight calf means your marathon is over

Sessions available during the taper.
Reassurance, rational thinking and gentle reality checks included.

Be honest… who recognises this in themselves? 😄

If you need help with any last-minute issues, physiotherapy appointments are available to help get you to the start line feeling confident.
