Help Clare McCall raise money to support CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably)

R u n D i a r i e s 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Less than a week until I run and I am feeling so nervous!

Just getting out of the house without a child attached has been a huge challenge, not to mention distance running whilst breastfeeding & sleep deprived and the various ways my postpartum body is still healing / not quite there yet!

But I signed up to this for the challenge.
Yes it will be difficult, but I can do hard things. I'm doing this to raise money and awareness for su***de prevention and hope somewhere along the way to make myself & my boys proud.

Soooo.... If you've been considering donating, the time is NOW! I'm only about £20 away from having raised £450 which is fantastic, but how amazing would it be to get to £500!?

Every little helps and will go towards a really vital resource for so many people struggling with their mental health. Your donation could save someone's life.

R u n D i a r i e s - My first 10K🏃‍♀️

I've had a lovely flurry of support on my GoFundMe recently and have just reached my fundraising target for which feels amazing! ❤️ I am still very much accepting donations - the more raised the better - so please do still sponsor if you haven't already and considering it!

A little update on my running progress...

A couple of weeks ago I did my first 10K with in Wimbledon Common. I was pretty nervous as I hadn't been getting much free time for running and my 'training' was very sporadic, but it was actually really fun! I followed some advice to "go slow, and then go slower"; I paced myself and found a slow & steady rhythm. As a trail run, there was lots of up/down hills and tree roots to contend with, but luckily I'm used to running in the common so it wasn't too bad. My time was 1hr 12 mins, which I'm pretty proud of for a first attempt and even found some energy at the end for a sprint finish, which honestly felt incredible!! 😂🏃‍♀️🙌

Ps. Running with diastasis recti and a dodgy hamstring is not easy - I stretched before and after, but still had to adjust my posture and not push too hard in case of injury. Also, staying hydrated is so important for running whilst breastfeeding - a quick feed beforehand was necessary to avoid discomfort during the run, but I'd love any advice from breastfeeding runners on how to manage hydration when it comes to longer distances.

Next challenge is to increase the distance to 15K and then up to 21K in time for October's
