A couple of days late, but here’s a little photo dump from the Amsterdam Marathon 🏃🏼🌷 #runningpunks
A photo of me standing in an athletics stadium holding a medal. A street filled with runners waiting to start a race. An athletics stadium with runners on the track and spectators in the stands. A photo of me stood next to an advertising board that reads “Runners aren’t normal.”

I ran my first marathon yesterday. Hardest thing I’ve ever done. Wasn’t fast or pretty, but very happy to have raised more than £600 for MAP. There’s still time to donate if you feel like you can, using the link in my pinned post 🥇
