💦☀️ The weather is looking warm this weekend. We have put together some useful tips on tackling 26.2 miles in warmer weather.

4 days to go to the second biggest marathon in the country @Marathon_Mcr (apparently there is something bigger down south...🤔)
Briefings done
Equipment packed
A team of 158 from SportsMedics, @AcuteAmbulance and @stjohnambulance
We are ready for our biggest event ever!
@kat2801@acer_house In the mean time, avoid common triggers like watching tv, being on phones/ tablets etc and absolutely avoid sport for the time being . Sleep when you want to sleep, eat when you want to eat etc
@kat2801 Kat you need to see a sports doctor . I do a clinic in Kent on a Thursday if that’s any help - contact @acer_house for more info - sports docs see loads of concussion and def your best option
@physphilosophy Sounds like they need repeat imaging and potentially dexa and bloods - so depends if you are able to arrange this? If not then SEM for sure :)
Can I go back???
Sad my week with @ActiveAway at Sani Beach is over. Great friends made , really high standard of tennis 🎾 and 30 hours (obviously I did more than I was meant to 😀) on court in the Greek ☀️ - heaven!
Next stop dubai #dubaiWeek3
@LondonMarathon day and I am sat ready with the tracking app to monitor my @one_welbeck patients. Good luck to them and everyone else 🏃♀️🏃♂️🏃💨
Ran it in 2010, participating from my sofa this time seems easier 🤣
It Doesn’t matter how little you you eat beforehand - completing afternoon tea always seems to be an impossible task
