Milestone
June 22nd 2020 Today I’ve made it halfway to 100 consecutive days of running 5k. That is to say, I’ve made it to 50 consecutive days of running 5k. I phrase it like that for two reasons: To pad out … Continue reading Milestone

Treble
February 27th 2020 Today I ran for the third consecutive day for the first time in a long time. Since June 2019, actually, I just checked. I’ve done the exact same route three times, with three different groups, at three … Continue reading Treble

Hike
August 22nd 2019 Today I agreed to a 14 mile run around the Brecon beacons. This is ambitious because I’ve been on one run in the last two months, and that was yesterday. The Brecon run is in like 3 weeks, and it’s four days after I come back from a #lads #holiday so I’m hardly going to be prepared. Also, because the Brecon beacons are, like, mountains or some shit, there’s going to be a lot of elevation involved. It’s well over a 1000 metres of elevation all in. I am kinda looking forward to it though, if only … Continue reading Hike
