In just 44 days I’m attempting something that I have never done before, a 5K run for charity in The Color Run. This might not seem a lot to some but for me with no running experience and overweight it’s a HUGE deal. My running style is terrible, if you imagine a Sea Lion running on an uphill trampoline then you get the general picture of my technique…it’s not pretty. I’m not doing this by myself, my partner in crime, the lovely Ashley from Coffee and Cakes and a bunch of other jolly good bloggers are joining me on the colourful 5K run.
I have 44 days in which to complete the Couch 2 5K program in order to prepare me for the challenge ahead. In those days I would like to raise as much money as possible for Save the Children, I’m going to ask all of you lovely lot to donate if you can, I would be ever so grateful.

![[AD] This year has been full of changes, we’ve homeschooled, we’ve worked from home (and still do) and as a result, we have spent more time in the house than we have out. It’s been no surprise that our monthly utility bills have increased over that period.
With our rising bills we wanted to see how easy it would be to reduce our bills and be more in control of our energy usage by switching to a smart home with one of the UKs leading smart home providers @HiveHomeUK. Combined with our Amazon Echo devices we have fully automated the lights in our home with Hive Dimmable Lights. They can be dimmed, set on timer, switched on/off via the app and respond to voice commands through Alexa.
You can find out more ways a smart home with Hive can benefit you in my blog post (link in bio)
