MoonWalker, Emma, shares her hints and tips on training for your breast cancer walk to help you complete your charity marathon
If you are reading this then chances are that you are training for The MoonWalk London marathon.
Well done! You are amazing, you really are. You have chosen to take action. Instead of just talking about it, you are doing it!
Now comes the hard bit. Reality has probably dawned on you by now. You should now be training regularly and following the training guide that you have been sent. You have now realised that this isn’t a walk in the park! This is at least a half-marathon or even a marathon! Those niggles of self-doubt will be pricking at the back of your mind. Don’t listen to them, ignore those prickles and remind yourself why you are doing this. Chances are you are walking for a loved one or perhaps you have been affected by cancer. One in 8 of us will be diagnosed with breast cancer at some point in our lives. This is why we are doing this. We are raising money so that hopefully lives can be saved, so that someone doesn’t have to lose their mother, daughter or sister. We are doing an amazing (and maybe slightly bonkers) thing.
This former couch potato is now well into her training. I thought that I would share with you what has worked for me
Training for the MoonWalk marathon isn’t easy but it’s not meant to be. If it was then everybody would be doing it and we wouldn’t be raising money. It is going to hurt and there will be times when you will want to give-up. When you are feeling like this remind yourself why you are doing it and who you are doing it for. Remind yourself how lucky you are that you are able to train for a marathon. Remind yourself of the difference you are making.
You can do this.
