Food Poisoning!

Hey all, hope you had a great weekend!

I was really looking forward to doing the relay with my husband yesterday, we went and registered on Saturday and got our numbers and was really excited, went for a lovely meal (or so we thought) at the hotel with just one glass of wine ha ha and at 4am in the morning woke up feeling horrendous and was very sick, it just got worse as the morning went on.

I managed to get a message to my husband that I wouldn’t be able to do the run and that he would have to do it all, luckily he had trained to do all 3 and did an amazing time of 5 hours and 20 mins!  Our relay team came 12th out of 20, he did amazing!

Because we had to check out of the hotel by 10am I had to manage to get myself, my mom and both kids to the race finish so we could go home straight from there.  I’m not sure how I did it but we got to the finish in the end and I had a really funny turn, I ended up in the back of an ambulance that was on stand by for the people that was in the race!  My oxygen levels had dropped and I ended up on the oxygen, but luckily all my vitals were fine and I was given the all clear to go home.  They said it looked like it was possibly food poisoning from my symptoms, thank god for my mom being there to look after me and the kids.

I’m feeling a bit better now, but I’m so gutted today that I couldn’t do the run, oh well I’ve got plenty of long runs ahead of me ha ha!

I’m going to have the week off doing any training, let my body fully recover and then do a 10 mile run on Saturday with the girls!

Have a good week x
