London Marathon Dreams!!!

This Sunday I sat in bed and watch The Virgin London Marathon. It made me remember all the years I sat on the sofa with my mum and dad, and the hand full of occasions that my dad actually ran the marathon.
I had always said since I was a little girl that I wanted too run the marathon. My dad was my idol when it came to running. I used to run because my dad ran and I wanted to be just like my dad. But as life went on I became more and more disinterested in running and more interested in food.
But now I want to change that. As I said in my previous post I am trying to improve my fitness, but now I am going to go one step further and set my self a real goal. I am going to run the 2018 London Marathon.
It gives me two years in which to get fitter and train. I will be getting a gps watch that will mean I can post my runs on to a website called strava. This means you can all see how my training is going and it also means my parents can make sure I am actually going fr runs and not just being a right lazy lump in bed watching netflix...
I'm not sure if I will run for a charity yet or not. There isn't really a particular charity that I feel means a lot to me or that has particularly help me or my family as far as I am aware.






So here goes starting now I am training for the big one!!!!

Wish me luck!!!

A Realisation

On Sunday my boyfriends family and I decided to go for a walk up coopers hill. It was a lovely day, the sun was shining, it was quite frankly wonderful.
I only managed to get half way up the hill. I didn't realise quite how unfit I was. My back was in agony and my chest was tight. I felt truly pathetic. I couldn't believe that I was unable to walk up a hill that only a few months ago I was able to climb easily. I know that I have put on a considerable amount of weight in that time but I hadn't quite realised what effect that had had on me apart from the need for more clothes.
Because of this I/ have decided to try and get back to the old me of sorts. I am going to try and eat healthier and start walking more. I don't just mean walking into town instead of getting the bus, I mean going for walks up Robinswood Hill and down the canal. eventually I hope to be fit enough to start jogging and eventually running again.
I am not trying to reach an unrealistic body goal, I am just trying to be healthier and fitter and happier with myself.

I will keep you up to date with my progress. I won't claim to be an expert, I will just share what I am doing and what works for me.

As always

Busy Bee!!!

Hello my lovelies!!!
I have been a very busy bee recently. First of all I have started working in a lovely new store of which I am enjoying thoroughly!!! Secondly I have been exercising my creativity by creating a beautiful line of necklaces. What I have made are not necessarily high end fashion but they are something that I think are beautiful. They are simple charm necklaces made of black cord and antique bronze charms and pendants.
In the future I want to be able to use quartz and crystal pendants. I would also like to create a line of bracelets and earrings.

My necklaces are available on depop, you can find me by searching lovehayleybeth. All my necklaces start at £3 and can be fully customised to fit your personality. If you don't have depop and don't want to download it you can email me at lovehayleybeth@gmail.com to order a custom design and payment can be done via paypal.
