What have you got in the future that you’re looking forward to?

It’s a key part of feeling positive and motivating you to feel good about the future if you have something to build anticipation and excitement for, which in these uncertain times, is all the more important.

So dear fabbers, what do you have to look forward to?

It can often be the little things, can’t it.

Except for the birthday, congratulations on that!

- comic book stores and halloumi fries and afternoon teas and summer dresses.

- exploring a new part of my sexuality.

- going on a mini break in an adorable cottage in my second favourite place in the world.

That's not even an exhaustive list. I'm in a good place currently and I find that I'm more likely to get excited/look forward to things more.

I have the Snowdon marathon to look forward to, its in October and my training plan starts next month.

My mind is already preparing as in I need to select the right training plan to suit me and the type of event I will be running.

I enjoy having a training plan, I like the mental commitment to something. This will take over most of my mindset for the next few months, I will live & breath preparing myself physically, mentally and emotionally. I will be fearful of injuries and careful of additional activities.

I will very much enjoy the entire journey towards the event, by looking at my diet, losing some lbs, and then seeing the benefits physically over the weeks will boost me.

I will want to run the route as 2 half marathons for training runs, I have already done the first half of the route on a previous visit to North Wales. So these trips will give me something to look forward to also.

Even planning the kit, my playlist for training and thinking through my timings at different stages of the event is exciting to me.

Then I will look forward to the day, I will be keen to see my support team of friends and my kids dotted throughout the course and ultimately to see my boyfriend at the finish line after he too has completed his run ahead of me and see his happy face as I crawl or limp over the finish line.

Yes... this event is something I am really looking forward to achieving

"I have the Snowdon marathon to look forward to, its in October and my training plan starts next month.

My mind is already preparing as in I need to select the right training plan to suit me and the type of event I will be running.

I enjoy having a training plan, I like the mental commitment to something. This will take over most of my mindset for the next few months, I will live & breath preparing myself physically, mentally and emotionally. I will be fearful of injuries and careful of additional activities.

I will very much enjoy the entire journey towards the event, by looking at my diet, losing some lbs, and then seeing the benefits physically over the weeks will boost me.

Wow! That’s impressive!

I know exactly what you mean about how the rotation can consume you and gives you that level of focus and anticipation.

I hope that it all goes well for you and look forward to the updates.

Hopefully I’ll be doing the same thing (on a less extreme race) soon

The only thing I've probably got later in the year is MLS if it all goes to plan.

We have a few family events coming up which I'm looking forward to. It's been so long.

We have not got any set plans for this year as such (apart from the MLS) because of the lurgy. But we are making memories every day and that in itself is a blessing.

Counting our blessings daily is the way forward. For me anyway.

I'm excited to see what the future brings!
