Dawn’s Running Journey – The Wolds Mini Mountain Marathon (WMMM)

 

Dawn’s Running Journey.  The Wolds Mini Mountain Marathon or WMMM for short.    Just the  title would be enough to put most people off.  However it’s not as scary as you may think as I have now completed five of them.  It is a three hour orienteering course around the picturesque Lincolnshire Wolds, a designated area of outstanding Natural beauty. The idea of the WMMM is to visit as many controls as possible within the 3 hour time limit. There are 25 controls in total worth 10, 20 or 30 points each and this year the higher scoring controls were in easy reach. I issue a  word of warning here, there are penalties for being late back so if you are not careful you could end up with 0 points!

Familiar Ground – The Massingberd Arms

 

I have now completed five  WMMM and this was the second starting from The Massingberd Arms, South Ormsby. However, this did not mean it gave me any advantage on the course. In fact the only similarities are the  start and the finish.   I arrived, registered and collected  the SI card which  is used to register my arrival at each control. Following the welcome brief and introduction the maps, rolled and sealed  were distributed. A few minutes to 09.00 we got the go ahead to open the map.  Now was the time I had  to make a quick decision on which route I wanted to take.  All too quickly it was time to start with runners and walkers going in all directions.

WMMM 2024 Map Showing Controls

 

The Beginning Of The WMMM

 

I set off across the fields toward control number 50 along with many of the other runners. I soon found that the runners had spread out along the track hurtling towards their first control. At the first control I quickly checked the map before I took a left turn towards the second control. Now fifteen  minutes in and the morning mist has turned into a fine drizzle. At this point I briefly wished I had brought a jacket. I had to reminded myself my skin was waterproof.  I would have been too warm in a jacket, because despite the rain it was still warm, 19C. My only regret was I hadn’t worn waterproof socks and as a consequence my feet were soaked through and squelching in my trainers.

Lincolnshire Wolds

 

The route took me along a mixture of footpaths, bridleways and quiet, minor roads around the rolling hills of the Lincolnshire Wolds. I really love  the views across the Wolds which are  stunning, even in the mist and rain.
Having decided to take a longer route to avoid running through a field of cows I later found myself  tip toeing across another cow field further into the run. I really do love cows but preferable from a distance.

Two hour point. Control No 52.

The Competitor In Me

 

On previous runs I hadn’t seen many other runners out and about but this his run was different. I could see runners in front, behind, coming in from the left or towards me which ever route I chose.   It made the event a little bit more competitive as I attempted to keep a fellow runners within my sight.  I aimed to overtake the runner in front only to find they were taking a different route.  In reality it actually made no difference at all as I had no idea how many controls others had actually visited or which route they had chosen.

Decision Time

 

I visited 9 controls and had 31 minutes left when I left the trail and came onto the road and realised the finish was just up the hill to my right.   It was time to make my final decision of the run.  Could I get another control worth 30 points and still get back to the start within the 3 hours?  Following a quick bit of maths I made the decision to go for it and turn round if the control appeared to be  out of my reach.  In the end I found it to be an easy run out and back.

The Finish Of The WMMM

 

Back on the road I decided to push up the hill, overtaking a couple of other runners  and  managed to finish with 13 minutes to spare.  I had visited 10 controls, earning a total of 260 points.  My final position was 22nd out of 38 runners & walkers.    Considering I did not train for this, I haven’t run further than 10km in the last two years and no longer orienteer, I can be forgiven ( I hope) for being a little bit pleased with myself. I forgot to start my watch at the begining, but I definitely ran just over 17 km. I use the word ‘run’ loosely as I did ‘Jeff it’ especially on the hills.

 

 

The Massingberd Arms

 

It would have been rude not to stop for a drink and a chat with fellow orienteer’s in the lovely Massingberd Arms.  I compared routes and overall scores with them before parting to dry off and head home.

Dawns Running  Journey – Not The Beginning!

 

This is by no means the beginning of my running journey, but a snap shot somewhere in the middle of it.
A few weeks ago Andy, Lincolns Park Run director asked the park runners “What’s your story?”  Well mine  is probably similar to many others who park run or walk each week.
I have been exercising for as long as I can remember, playing squash, badminton, cycling to school and then to work everyday. Like  many I joined a gym (of which I have a love/hate relationship with even to this day) lifted weights, jumped around in classes and ran up hills. I even exercised throughout pregnancy, training on Tuesday and giving birth on the Thursday. Back exercising 6 weeks later with a baby in a running jogger much like many of the parents we see running around park run today.

Dawns Running Journey – Life Gets Interrupted

 

Life sometimes gets in the way if you let it.  Before you know it you are juggling being a taxi service, work commitment’s,  being a mum and a wife. The weight piled on as the exercise lessened.
So what changed?
In 2016 I had my photo taken with my son on his prom night.  In that picture  I  saw a square, fat and frumpy woman. That was not who I wanted to be.
Like so many others I downloaded the C25K app and went running with Jo Whiley as my virtual coach.  I started Park running with the Maternity Wing Park Run Group and then  when my confidence increased I joined a running group. My first run was with the legendary Jim Diamond who taught me anything was possible with the right training and mind set.

Mental Breakdown – Are You OK?

 

In May 2018 I had a ‘mental breakdown’ for want of a better description. Everyday life was a struggle, but running helped, as did the support from family and friends.
One overdue thank you goes to Shirley who one park run morning asked ‘Are You OK?’. I wasn’t. A phone call later and lunch in the garden proved to be a turning point in my recovery.

Dawns Running Journey – Recovery And Achievement

 

In April 2019  I went on to run my first 10K in over 20 years (along with the Maternity Wing Park Run Group).  I’ve run a half marathon and many 10K’s since then, finally in 2022 achieving my goal of running one in under 1 hour.

I’m ‘relatively normal’ now, but that ultimately depends on who you speak to!
As Andy says ‘Look around you, talk to others here and form new friendships’.
You never know whose journey you have interrupted and helped onto a different and more positive path.

Celebrating Our Park Run Volunteers

Celebrating Our Park Run Volunteers

Celebrating Our Park Run Volunteers

 

Having been injured and unable to run much through 2023 I took to running one lap and then volunteering.  Today I had volunteered to write the run report about ‘my journey’. I had it all prepared. However listening to Jim, our run director I was reminded that today I was celebrating my 25th volunteer role. I’ve therefore changed tack and will write about celebrating our park run volunteers.

Each week a request for volunteers is made. This week Jim, along with Pooh and Piglet pleaded for help to fill the roster. I didn’t realise until I arrived at our beautiful Boutham Park how many of the Maternity Wing Park Run Group were volunteering today. They all responded to the last minute pleas.

Without volunteers there would be no park run! Each week Lincoln needs a minimum of 18 volunteers for the event to go ahead.  A more realistic number of volunteers would  be about 28.

As the school holidays start the number of runners and volunteers has taken a dip and filling future rosters is challenging.

The Core VolunteeringTeam

 

There are regular volunteers at Lincoln, the core team (you know who they are) who often cover several roles each week, but even they need time out from time to time.  If you fancy taking over Junes Bridge or Sandras Corner one morning please email lincoln@parkrun.com

Catherine bravely took on marshalling Mozzy Corner. This may not be its official name but it’s on the corner in the wooded section. Plenty of shade makes it perfect conditions for a hot day like today.

Family Friendly

 

Perhaps you attend our Park Run with your family who spectate and cheer you on?  Could you persuade them to Marshall? They still have the opportunity to cheer you on but at the same time help keep park run going for you.

Park Run is a vey family friendly community. The Lincoln Junior Park Run team are taking over the park run on the 10th August and are looking for volunteers for both this event and for the Junior Park Run which will eventually take place on Sundays.  Could this be the opportunity for you and your children/grandchildren to volunteer and learn all about Junior Park run? If you are interested in supporting this event please check out the roster on this link:  https://www.parkrun.org.uk/lincoln/futureroster/

Celebrating Our Park Run Volunteers – Combining Running And Volunteering

 

Ella, another one  of our Maternity Wing Park Run Group was also celebrating her 25th volunteer role today choosing to bar code scan.   I love to bar code scan as you get to speak to 100’s of runners. The first past the post, who to be honest, can’t usually speak as they have just run supper fast. Those who achieved a PB, Park Run tourists, those training for ultra marathons, runners from  different running groups, cancer my way participants, the children and walkers.

Jamie,  today’s  first runner home took on scanning duties as he has on many occasions.  Fiona, ran her 200th park run today in a respectable 29m 36s and then took up scanning duties.

Perhaps  you finish in the top 52. If so have you ever considered volunteering?  I’m sure many of you have, but if not please consider running and bar code scanning just once a year. That’s 52 weeks covered already!!

I’ve  dragged my son’s girlfriend to park run on more than one occasion. Charlie has now volunteered more than she has run. Her favourite role is funnel manager.

Today Shirley took control of the funnel and really enjoyed the experience. Again, it’s a great way to meet, greet and congratulate your fellow runners.

Celebrating Our Park Run Volunteers – Familiar Faces

 

A regular at park run is Keith Mackenzie. Today Keith celebrated his 50th volunteer role by park walking.  Along with the tail walker this is a great way to give support and encouragement to those runners and  walkers at the back of the pack. It’s an ideal role if you have an injury and need to slow your pace whilst still getting your park run fix and your steps in.

Dawns running journey on WhatsOnLincs by LincsConnect. Celebrating our Lincoln Park Run Volunteers.

Keith celebrating his 50th Volunteering Role at Lincoln Park Run

Perhaps you have a big event on Sunday and need to rest.  Rather than sitting park run out how about being the number checker, finish token manager or time keeper?

There are roles to suite everyone. Try stepping  out of your comfort zone and try something different. The first timers welcome is another role you can combine comfortably with your run.  This would also suit someone who needs to get away in a hurry after their run.

If you know of any youngster who are participating in the Duke of Edinburgh award then volunteering can count as their service.

Pledge To Volunteer

 

Park Run UK suggests every runner should attempt to volunteer three times a year. Some will be able to do this easily plus more, whilst others may be able to manage just one.  If every regular Lincoln park runner stepped forward just once a year it would make a huge difference to the roster.

Volunteering isn’t difficult and the park run community is really friendly and supportive. Please take a look at roster for the next six weeks and beyond.

Let’s all pledge to volunteer at least once a year.

https://www.parkrun.org.uk/lincoln/futureroster/

Remember, if you are a T shirt collector then volunteer 50, 100 or 150 times and you can send for a volunteer shirt. This is another great way to support park runs future.

The Lincolnshire Blogger

The Lincolnshire Blogger

The Original Lincolnshire Blogger

The original Lincolnshire Blogger (AKA Martin Thomas, ‘Simply Fit’) came to prominence in January 2011 (with the Lincolnshire Blogger concept being born in 2009) and quickly grew in popularity. The dedicated website followed in November 2015.

Initially writing as a columnist in the Lincolnshire Echo, The Target, Retford Times, Horncastle News, Louth Leader, Market Rasen Mail, Weddings Today and a few other newspapers and magazines the theme has always remained the same.  Helping and informing people has, and is still at the top of the agenda for the newspaper and web based blogs and columns.

The Original Lincolnshire Blogger – The Beginnings

Initially the published works began as health and fitness columns with links to local charities, organisations and clubs to help give them a voice in the media.

The first regular column was instigated on 7 September 2011 in The Lincolnshire Echo but prior to that the published writing goes back to November 2009 in my capacity as the sponsor for The Midwife Of The Year (MOTY).  The domain names were established at the same time while waiting for the website to be built.

Here are a couple of my early columns dating back to 2011 and early 2012:

Early Columns

 

The Lincolnshire Blogger – Moving On

The popularity of my columns soon grew and demand increased as more invitations for writing and radio interviews began to arrive. I wrote articles both as ‘Simply Fit’ and ‘Lincolnshire Blogger’ but the latter didn’t take off properly until 2015.

Fast forward to Covid in 2020. The blogs took on a new focus. The supportive blogs to help and inform people were gratefully received.

The Last Blogs Before Covid

The last Blogs before the pandemic included ‘New Website’ and ‘The New Logo’  with one of the last blogs being an advertising blog for the ‘Comedy Hotspot’ events. Little did I know what was going to happen in just a matter of days after its publication!

Comedy Hotspot in Lincolnshire by LincsConnect the Lincolnshire blogger, LincsBlogger

Little did we know what was to come in just a few days time! If you would like to read one of the last blogs before the Pandemic lockdown just click on this link: Comedy Hotspot

The Lincolnshire Blogger With Covid

It’s ironic that it took a major pandemic to shake me out of my fear of writing blogs.  Everything up until then felt like ‘practice’ for the real thing!

Having contracted Covid the day before lockdown I was quarantined in the house. Luckily my bedroom was next door to my office so as a result  I made use of my time by brushing up on my blogging skills. The writing has always been easy for me. The fear of the technology (along with my dyslexia) had been holding me back.  I find the computer quite easy to use but WordPress (the website & blogging platform) somehow felt extremely difficult.

My first lockdown blog doesn’t look the slickest in the world but it was the start of my ever improving blogging journey. Thank goodness for YouTube tutorials and the help from the local Twitter community.

#LincsConnect by LincsConnect the Lincolnshire blogger, LincsBlogger

“Have We Become Numb” was the first lockdown blog of many. Thankfully they improved over time! Click on the blue link above if you would like to have a look.

 

Moving Up-To-Date

We faced many challenges during the pandemic and the LincsConnect blogs certainly went a long way towards helping people to navigate their way through it.  Post pandemic blogging helped us through new challenges as many of us were nervous about reverting back to our pre-pandemic lifestyle.  Once again, I did my bit with my blogs to help as many people as possible.

Blogs For Advertising

Rather than becoming ‘old fashioned’, blogging has become even more relevant recently as many people turn away from familiar social media platforms and embrace new ones.  Readership has become very fragmented across the many platforms with ever more confusing sites launching on a regular basis. Twitter has certainly changed (not for the better) and Facebook experiences ever increasing updates which makes it more and more difficult to navigate.  The blog has remained constant and as a result continues to be the perfect advertising medium.

 

Gala Fireworks on WhatsOnLincs, what's on in Lincolnshire by LincsConnect the Lincolnshire blogger, LincsBlogger

Gala Fireworks used a LincsConnect blog to advertise their event at the Lincolnshire Showground. The blog is extremely useful as it’s much bigger than a standard advert. It contains more information than a standard newspaper editorial yet has a small link that can be easily copied and posted on any social media platform. The link comes with its own advertising picture (of your choice) which can be embedded onto a website as a permanent advert. All in all, it ‘is’ the perfect advertising tool.  Click on the blue link above to see how effective a blog can be for advertising.

Happy New Year With Mandarin Fitness Weight Loss

Here is a new series of blogs for you, starting with ‘Mandarin Fitness Weight Loss’ tips for the New Year.

With 33 years experience as a Personal Trainer I’m here to help you on your journey to health and happiness.

Over Indulged?

Christmas has been and gone already!  Did you buy enough chocolates, alcohol, savoury snacks and treats to last the day…..week?

I’ve heard it said that many people consume around 4000 ‘extra’ Calories per day over the Christmas holidays.  To put this into perspective; in order to burn off 1Lb of body fat you’ll need to burn an ‘extra’ 3500 Calories.  Those ‘extra’ Calories means an awful lot of exercise! Read on for useful tips.

Mandarin Fitness Weight Loss – Don’t Despair

Mandarin Fitness weight loss by LincsConnect the :Lincolnshire blogger LincsBlogger

Don’t despair…

Gaining 5Lb (2-3kg) over the Christmas period isn’t really such a big deal so don’t despair. Body weight naturally fluctuates on a daily basis so resist the temptation to succumb to the advertising hype from the big companies. You ‘will’ be bombarded with the latest eating craze, special diets and prepared meals from all of the media and social media channels. ‘Don’t Despair – Do Resist’ the temptation to follow the crowd. Hold onto your money (at least until you’ve finished reading this blog) because you may find some simple and cheaper alternatives.

The Six Pack

Mandarin Fitness weight loss by LincsConnect the Lincolnshire blogger LincsBlogger

Your 6 pack is always there but sometimes it needs a bit of work to tone it up. You’ll need to be very lean (very little body fat) to be able to see it, but it is there

For those of you who know me, you’ll know that I don’t particularly subscribe to the ‘six pack’ club. My preferred mantra is ‘healthy’ rather than obsessive.  Don’t get me wrong though, the ‘six pack’ is good – but it’s just not a realistic goal for everyone.  So, what can the answer be for those of us who don’t aspire to that type of figure or realistically understand that the ‘lean, mean, fighting machine’ body is never going to be achievable?

Here are some simple rules:

  1. Don’t feel guilty if you think you over indulged over the Christmas period.
  2. Love yourself as you are.
  3. Aspire to be healthy, pain free and able to move freely.
  4. Be prepared to make small changes on a regular basis to make sure you reach your goals.
  5. Be active and stay active.

I can think of many more rules but these five will hold you in good stead for the foreseeable future.

We all know that the consequences of over indulgence and not enough exercise can be fatal. Don’t obsess with your fitness and weight loss programme though. There are some simple changes that you can implement to help make lasting changes.

Mandarin Fitness Weight Loss – Small Changes

If you’re asking yourself “what should I do to help myself?” try starting with these simple tips:

  1. Make small, healthy changes to your diet.
  2. Don’t rush to make big changes all at once. The smaller changes are more likely to become habits that will be long lasting.
  3. Don’t run a marathon! Over exercising is the biggest cause of injury and it happens ‘every’ New Year! Becoming a statistic isn’t part of the game plan.
  4. Invest in appropriate clothing and footwear.
  5. Join a structured club or class that you are likely to enjoy. If you don’t enjoy the exercise you probably won’t stick at it.

Walking Is Free

Our digital age provides technology to help motivate us. In addition we have nice cameras on our phones so we can use them to help give us a reason for walking.

There are many free Apps available to help track our walks and activity. As an iPhone user I utilise the built in fitness App to track my activity and walks for myself and my client sessions. Other Apps available including ‘Map My Walk’ and ‘Strava’. A photo taken during the walk is a lovely way to record your activity too.

If you normally drink a late or cappuccino coffee try swapping it for an Americano coffee. Likewise, if you always eat ready meals, challenge yourself to cook a healthy meal instead. If you have a takeaway meal every week change it to once a month.

If you don’t normally go for a walk try starting off with 1 mile (1.5km) at a time on a daily basis. Your fitness levels ‘will’ improve and your weight ‘will’ reduce. These very simple change ideas can make a world of difference to your life.  Adapting the idea to suite yourself is a perfect way to make permanent changes.

Mandarin Fitness Weight Loss – Superfoods

There is no such thing as a ‘superfood’.  I’ll say that again in case you aren’t sure what you just read: THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS SUPERFOOD!

Don’t be fooled by the adverts on TV.

Mandarin Fitness Weight Loss – Exercises

Here are a few ideas for exercises that you might find useful. Don’t forget to start off gently to avoid injury.  It’s better to stop while you’re feeling good than to push to fatigue then suffer the consequences later.
