What can I say about She Runs This? Jemma has saved my running and that’s not even close to an over-exaggeration! At the end of 2020, the worst year for so many people in general, my running and my relationship with running, was almost non-existent. I’d been coached since 2018 by an online coach (bar a few months out for personal reasons) so I felt loyalty to this Coach and the community and they had built. However, when I really looked at what I was receiving from this partnership – which is definitely what a coach/athlete relationship should be – I was letting myself down.
I have followed Jemma on Instagram for a number of years and it clicked as I was scrolling, that she’d started TGCC. I took a big leap to leave my original Coach and messaged her regarding this. The plan I get from Jemma on a Sunday for the week ahead just fills me with happiness (sometimes fear and hatred at the sessions prescribed ????) but definite happiness.
The fact Jemma clearly wanted to get to know me as a runner and what makes me tick as well as ensuring I was doing the right sessions for my goal just made me more confident I made the right choice in coming to her. There is a two-way relationship here which I’m just realising is how it should be! In the 2 short months I’ve been with Jemma, I’m loving running again, I’m happy and I’m almost back to my ‘regular’ speeds and mileage which means the only way is up! And I can’t blooming wait ????.
