I hate running. 💔

(ad) turns out 7 months of injury and not being able to run, actually can make the return the running not that fun.

I’m constantly in fear of getting injured again, as well as always comparing myself to past versions of me who were faster and fitter.

And I am doing my best now to try and fall back in love with the sport, when all I really want to do is avoid it forever.

It is just like when I first started running and I hated it and I had to bribe myself to get out the door.

Treating myself to good running routes and food at the end of runs, as well as following a running plan to hold me accountable.

I was on the post injury plan for the first 6 weeks, building me up to run 5k with no stops and now I am on the run further plan so I can gradually build up to the half marathon distance. (code DRBECCA for free trial)

It’s not quick, it’s not glamorous. But it is healthy and it is sustainable.

And I know that the better I ease my way into running now, the more I will be able to run in my future.

I look like myself again 🥺🩺

I went to put on scrubs today to film a video for work and saw what I looked like in the mirror… and I couldn’t help but be filled with emotion.

It’s been two and a half years since I left the NHS due to burnout. A career that I worked my whole life to achieve, all for it to fall to pieces.

Since leaving, I have been trying to build a career away from clinical medicine, as I don’t think I would be ever able to go back due to my mental and physical health.

But as I put on the scrubs today, I couldn’t help but miss the person I used to be when I wore them. I immediately wanted to walk into a cubicle, see a patient and say the words “hi I’m Becca and I’m one of the doctors”. And for a moment I could not remember why I left a career I loved so much.

Until I did remember all the trauma that came with it. Those difficult days, the lack of support and the eventual burnout which broke me.

One day I may go back to clinical medicine, there is still a part of me that loves it so much… but for now, I still think there is work to do in stopping doctors getting burnout and I’m determined to see this project through first!

A big update ❤️

I feel like I haven’t been here on Instagram the past 8 months…

My life was flipped upside down 8 months ago from injury and illness and that seemed to set the tone of my life for a while.

I feel like I lost my spark with posting and didn’t have a clue what I was doing in life - as the past 8 months has just been about getting back to some kind of normality.

But with all that healing, I have been trying to build back up a life which gave me some kind of purpose but also trying to regroup to figure out what’s going on.

And I decided flipping my life back upside down the other way was probably the best way to do this 🙃

A new flat, the end of my masters and a new job.

So much change (hence why I feel like I’ve been extra quiet on here recently).

And I have found this week so tough, I don’t do well with change at all and I don’t know if I am making the right move… but I think change is necessary for growth and I am ready for a new chapter, away from the past 8 months.

So I am excited to take you guys with me for the journey - and consider this : me being back!

DITL of my girls cycling trips! 🚴‍♀️☀️ad

A perfect trip filled with:
🚴🏼‍♀️ group rides
👙swimming in lakes
☀️perfect weather
⛰️exploring the mountains
🥙 a chef for our meals?!?
🍷and evenings to chill and socialise

Although big cycling days + sunny weather = lots and lots of sweating - so hydration and fuelling was key all week! As when we sweat, we’re not only losing water, we’re losing electrolytes too.

I’ve been using O.R.S Sport Electrolytes on my rides, they are a science back hydration formula, created by pharmacists and prescribed by UK doctors, and also contain magnesium and vitamin D - so perfect for long days on the bike!

Here’s to many more girls trips!☀️

I DID IT!!!!!!!!!! 🥹📚💻🎓

11,893 words (plus ~5000 more for the other stuff) on a dissertation all about The Healthcare Club and whether we can prove that fitness communities support the wellbeing of healthcare workers in the U.K!!!

MSc Public Health is finally done!!!!!!! ✅✅✅✅✅

Thank you to everyone who has supported me doing this alongside everything else over the years, you will no longer have to see me appear like *the last slide* at my laptop anymore 😂

But now I have a paper on this topic… it’s time for the real work to begin 👀👩🏼‍⚖️ and it’s time to get some new policy! But more on this later…

For now, a little celebration!

Someone pinch me because I can’t believe this is my life 🥹

A day at the European Athletics Championships European Athletics interviewing my inspirations, watching the best in the sport and getting to race around the track. Still unsure, but also forever grateful, how I get to call this work, and I hope I get to do it a lot more!

EUROPEAN ATHLETICS CHAMPIONSHIPS BTS 👀🏃‍♀️🎤🥇

An incredible day down in Birmingham, having the best day with a media pass and a mic 🎤 getting to watch the best athletes in Europe battle it out and watch them achieve some incredible results and then interviewing them afterwards - pinch me!

The more I am learning about sport over the years, is just making me grow my love for it more and more, no matter whether people are just beginners or the top of their sport.

Let’s get more people moving and trying new sports!

(also dare I say I think I want to do more sports presenting? 👀🎤)

Thank you for the opportunity!
