a pretty place to play
Hi, I'm Bethan, a runner, yogi and PhD student from London. For questions or press please email me at aprettyplacetoplay@gmail.com.
I'm on Instagram...
![I’ve not run (or left the flat) since Tuesday, but my first piece of coursework is in and quite honestly I feel like I’ve run @thespeedproject already. I had to produce statistical analysis which involved creating code, something that is way out of my comfort zone. I have literally no background in econometrics (sports economics is quite different) and it blew my tiny mind. Factor in some not great teaching and poor resources and the whole thing became pretty stressful. I’ve been working solidly for days with very little sleep and not much more clue what I was doing, it was one of the hardest academic experiences I’ve had in a very long time. But it is in, and I can move my focus to my other coursework which is much more my vibe - qualitative analysis of identities and experiences - before heading to LA on Monday. I cannot wait for a massive sleep on my flight!

![This week is all about getting it DONE. Getting my coursework done. Getting my runs done. Getting TSP prep done.
Today I squeezed in a run on the way home from a meeting before cracking on with yet more work at home. Yep I felt a little strange sitting in a department meeting in my PE kit was a bit weird, but it meant I could do everything I needed to do and fit in a bit of r and r during an insanely busy week, after all there’s nothing like a run to clear your head when life gets crazy.
