Dear journalists in my Twitter feed, could we *please* stop using 'nation' or 'country' in news reports. It's times like this where clarity is essential. If you're taking about the UK as a whole, say so. If you're talking about England only say so. Thank you.

For clarity, being a "runner" is based on a love of running that leads to going running - regardless of pace, distance, races, or length of time running etc etc etc

My socials are full of how ‘everyone broke the rules’ in lockdown. No, no they didn’t. My Dad was diagnosed with cancer in May 2020 and died two months later. We stuck to the rules, we had no visitors, we held a tiny funeral. The ‘everyone broke the rules’ line is just offensive.

REBELS RELAY UPDATE!!!
Hello all you Rebels.
As we enter the final two weeks of this life affirming challenge, I have a big goal for us all!

While Boris Johnson was partying during lockdown in Downing St, my family was nursing my Dad in the final weeks of his life. We stuck to the rules, we didn’t have visitors, we had a devastatingly tiny funeral. Boris’ behaviour then, and since, is simply unforgivable

I’ve seen a few posts again asking how men can be allies out running: let us know you’re there (esp in the dark) - a polite ‘runner passing on your left’; leave space - we don’t need to rub shoulders as we pass; & smile/wave/greet other runners. Please let’s keep running fun 💜
