Simon Jones @simonthingy.bsky.social · 22/09/2026There’s something to be said for this easy #running lark. A nice steady 10k where I even managed to keep running up two hills that I usually wimp out on 1261
Simon Jones @simonthingy.bsky.social · 20/09/2026The taper is on. Conversational paced half marathon today. The last long run before my ultra. Hit the pacing I want to try and maintain for the 50k🤞. 13 days to go #running 3171
Simon Jones @simonthingy.bsky.social · 19/09/202611km easy on the plan today, so I went a roundabout route to #parkrun . Took it easy on the way, then put some effort in for the non race 🤣 #running The current Mrs J was on token sorting duties 0201
Simon Jones @simonthingy.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Upping the pace for today’s #running . Progressive mile repeats. Felt like a struggle on the 2nd mile, then I lost track of which pace I was supposed to be on in the 3rd, which makes for a slightly eccentric graph. Overall a decent effort 1201

Simon Jones @simonthingy.bsky.social · 04/09/2026I gave it a go, I guess NY is as close as the rest gets to UK 🤣 110
