I love how inventive people have got while running events aren’t on.
This one is fantastic, I especially like the cat featuring as Run Director & volunteer.

💛‪Broken but beautiful. Have you heard of Kintsugi? The Japanese art of putting broken pottery pieces back together with gold, with the idea that in embracing flaws & imperfections, you can create an even stronger, more beautiful piece of art. 🍯Even though I also gained some gold fingers & temporarily glued a handle to my hand 😬 I love the results. One handle wouldn't go back on, so I added gold & just pick it up round the mug. 📝Maybe an activity for your lockdown list? ☕️Unbroken mugs are also available as usual 🙏🏽

There are definitely some positives in these hard

There are definitely some positives in these hard times. 💡More inventiveness - I think the nurse’s comment here is a brilliant example (scroll R)
👬Also more connectedness - like her getting in touch to let me know why she bought these running buffs from me. (Those pictured are in stock, others are available to order when I can get them again). 💫Have you been doing / seeing more examples of invention & connection too?

Have you been enjoying seeing other people’s working from home set up? I have, so here’s mine. This is a temporary set up for me, as I usually work near my husband, but he’s on constant calls, so I’ve decamped. I’ve got my laptop risen to eye level on some @marathondumedoc finisher wine boxes. On screen are some self isolation ideas I’ve been working on, emailed out to my newsletter today & link in bio. To the right is my Majors mug which usually has coffee or tea in. The large black thing is a Wacom which I use for design work. The print is now available as a postcard.
On the left, I use my planner pad to plan my week. The training diary, marathon pin, headwear and Congratulations Half card are orders going out today. The Half card is for a solo run. The ‘You Got This’ are the notes that go with every order. You can pin up the ‘You Got This’ as mini inspiration, and I hand write a personal message on the back. How are you set up? #BehindTheScenes #WorkingFromHomeLife

Hoping this pic doesn’t scare anyone 😬
I’m posting it for the #gameface challenge, one of the lighter relief things that’s sprung up during difficult COVID-19 times. (Thanks to @enigmagirl81 for nominating & showing me)
This was taken on the last hundred metres of Seville Marathon in Feb.
I think I’d caption this ‘Get me to the finish’ but feel free to suggest one!…

How has your week changed? Are you working? Running solo? Video calling with colleagues & friends?
I’ve been working at home, both alone & sharing space, for years, so feel free to ask for any tips.

Combining my one exercise outing with fulfilment.

Combining my one exercise outing with fulfilment. It seems most businesses are really impacted right now. Whilst I’m still working full time, orders have pretty much stopped, at what would usually be a peak time of year. I was grateful to be sending inspirational postcards to a customer who got in touch to say:
‘I loved your designs and am going to write personal message to my team who are spread around the world.’
So sending health to all, and thoughts to the many whose businesses are severely hit. If small online businesses can help you at this time, please consider using them.

Run safe & share only smiles during difficult time

Run safe & share only smiles during difficult times.
You can download the black & white version for free to colour in (or pay a small contribution if you like) for some at home creative self care. Also available as colour stickers.
I designed these to bring a smile, help remember why we run & remember that running responsibly now can help save lives and make us stronger for our future running goals.
To get yours, click on the pics or go to ArtOfYourSuccess.com - New products, or search stickers.
