Second ever half marathon this morning.
Came away with a PB of 1:34.57 run🏃🏻‍♂️💨

Still waiting for the official results, but happy with that one. Ended up placing 1st in my distance too... although there weren’t loads competing over it 😅

Found this race tougher than expected. I’m not used to leading out on my own and spent most of the run battling my head as much as my legs. Came away with a few blisters, a massive medal, and plenty of post-race snacks... and most importantly, the achilles have survived another round 🙌🏻 Thanks

Proud to be repping Durham City Harriers again 🟠

Loads still to work on, but plenty of time until the Great North Run.

And as much as they’re a pain in the arse... big thanks to .with.kev and for getting me into this stuff in the first place 👏🏻

Head to toe in gear, so if they have any spare money atter Gout Gout’s new contract and want to sponsor a mediocre runner, with lots of enthusiasm ... call me 😉

Sunderland 10K 🏃🏻
69th place... nice 😏

Also somehow bagged joint 3rd fastest worldwide strava finish-line sprint after basically power-walking the 20m build-up 😂🏃🏻💨

#69

Senior League at Shildon yesterday 🏃🏻

🥇 1st – 400m hurdles (huge improvement, knocking nearly 5 seconds off last week’s NECCA performance 🙌)
🥉 3rd – 100m… a welcome surprise after years away from the event and recent injury setbacks
🏃‍♂️ 800m – somewhere around 4th/5th? Still waiting on results, but happy with 2:18 from memory 😵‍💫
🥇 1st – 4x4 relay, went out hard and never let the lead go 💪

Good weather, minimal injuries, solid performances all round — great day at NESDL 🔥

Busy weekend just gone, out again on Sunday for the Dalton Park 10k. Came 5th out of 105 🏃🏻
Then a deserved family refuel at Uno Momento 🍕

Tried something different today and jumped into a 1500m on the track 🏃🏻

Safe to say… that hurt more than expected. Good reminder that stepping outside your usual events keeps things honest.

Solid day overall:
1st — 110m Hurdles
1st — 400m Hurdles
2nd — 4x400 Relay

Nothing flashy, just getting the work done and testing the legs in different ways.

Quick reset now and back out again for a 10K tomorrow morning. Looking forward to seeing what’s left in the tank 💪🏼

Out here looking daft in the rain 🌧️ but every step is for an amazing cause 💛

Training for the Great North Run and raising money for Heel & Toe Children’s Charity, even when it’s not glamorous.

Little setback this week with an injury, so training’s on pause… but I’ll be back at it soon 💪

If you can, please support or share, it means a lot 🙌

Alright I’ll jump on the bandwagon 😂 Not sure why we’ve got Big Ben in the photo??

Last weekend with the Harriers lot 🥾

We walked the Fairfield Horseshoe; 9 wainwrights ticked off and 10-11 miles of walking which took us over 7 hours. Another great weekend away in the lakes 💪🏼
