Today a self supported 50 miler, its been a long time since I've ran that distance. Carrying a 8kg rucksack, the legs definitely felt it today. Lots of run, walk, run for last half. I'm going to be feeling it in the morning. #ukrunchat #ultramarathon #running @runr_uk @UKRunChat

It's great to be back club training although very different with new social distancing guidelines. Worked in groups of 3, maintaining social distancing and separate routes for each group. 1hr tonight, 30 mins out and back. #running #ukrunchat @MorayRoadRunner

Buzzing, really happy with todays time. Its been 2 months since I last did a timed @parkrunuk. Since, then I've struggled with motivation & a constant niggle with my left hamstring. I've also watched my VO2 max go from 64 to 58. Feeling positive #NotParkRun @UKRunChat @runr_uk

Can't believe it was a year ago today that I became the first person to run the @NorthEast250, raising money for @RAFBF. What an amazing adventure it was. Amazing scenery and got to experience so of the best Scottish hospitality. #running #ukrunchat #scotland #charity @UKRunChat
I've done it, first person to complete the @NorthEast250

Great story on holiday refunds & our rights @gompertz on @BBCNews. @bookingcom were brillant with dealing with my refund, issues resolved within 7 working days. However, less positive words for @lufthansa, I've been waiting nearly 8 weeks for my refund.

First run in two weeks thought I'd ease back into things with a marathon 🤣 After doing 30 miles on the bike this morning, I thought I'd make it a duathlon day. Cardio has definitely got worse in lockdown, HR higher than usual. #ukrunchat #running #marathon

Today I decided do the route of one of my favourite races from last year, the Ben Rinnes 5 tops hill race. So a bit of hill training, leg strengthing. Over 1500 meters elevation gained. 80 miles covered in the last 4 days. #trailrunning

That was hard work after yesterday's run. I debated all morning whether to go for a run today or not. My body felt like it had been hit by train this morning. However, after much deliberation, I decided to head out. Another 10 miles. #running #ukrunchat @runr_uk

Over 10 days ago since I last ran & September last year since I ran over a marathon distance. Lost the love for running a bit being in Glasgow. Was great to get back on the trails. I saw less people today than I would see in a mile in Glasgow. #trailrunning

Long Sunday run complete, a nice steady half marathon. Even at 1700 it was still warm out there. #ukrunchat #running #sundayvibes @runr_uk @UKRunChat

Love it when the weather is rubbish. Its perfect for a long run and less people out & about, less people to avoid. I really needed that, it helped me de-stress and reduce my anxiety I've been feeling lately. #MentalHealthMatters #lockdown #COVID19 #running @UKRunChat @runr_uk

Should be preparing for @londonmarathon tonight. However, made the most of my free time by supporting @sikhsinscotland Foodbank packing & delivering food parcels to the most vulnerable in the Glasgow community. Also got my #twopointsixchallenge in. @RAFJobsGlasgow @UKRunChat

Out early this morning to do my weekly shop opting to walk rather than drive there in my car. Followed by @thebodycoach workout. It was 2 years ago today I met Joe at the @londonmarathon 2018. His workouts have been a Godsend. #COVID19 #StayHome #homeworkout #recovery
