Fantastic #parkrun at Vicar Water County Park this morning with my friend Peter. Luckily, what goes up must come down! The gorse was amazing and smelled of coconuts, perfect running weather (bright, dry and cool), and fabulous views from the top of the hill! #LoveParkrun #dfyb

Start and end of the first run for two weeks. Good to get most of it done in daylight and that will only improve! Enjoyed some speed work even though it wasn’t very speedy. Found a flat-ish route near work with no roads which looks like it’ll work well for these sessions. #ukrunchat #garminplan
I’m standing on a street and smiling, I’m wearing a yellow neon top. It’s the start of my run at 4pm and it’s lightAt the end of my run it’s almost dark but not quite at 5pm!

Run directing at the beautiful Foots Cray Meadows this morning. Fab team of vols saw 90 runners safely out and home. Last time I was there was the big storm at the start of December, so it may have been cold today but at least we stayed dry! Got to give gorgeous George 🐶 some treats ♥️ #loveparkrun

So apparently the act of sending loved ones little videos and cute pictures and funny things throughout the day is called "Pebbling" because there's a species of penguin that likes to leave pebbles in their partners' nests to show they care, and this is my happy thing for today

Fun squelchy times at Shipley Country parkrun this morning. Once you’ve been through one ankle-deep puddle there’s no point in trying to go round the rest! 341st run and 71st different event for me. What a fantastic way to start the year! #loveparkrun

My 81 year old mum has just been referring to Tayce with she/her pronouns. Then said “Should it be they? I wasn’t sure when they’re in drag what was the correct thing”. So it isn’t difficult, and if you’re not sure, ask. As demonstrated by my mum. #StrictlyComeDancing
