The Montane Summer @spinerace.bsky.social Challenger & MRT North is well underway now, the start was awesome. Big crowd to cheer the runners as they left Hardraw.

It was an 'Adventures from the front door' kind of long weekend. The freebie child bike seat that our neighbour was getting rid of has taken us on a tour of Sheffield's parks and canals. We didn't fancy heading west and joining the masses in the Peak District.

Three words that rearrange how you live if you let them: MOOD FOLLOWS ACTION. Solo riff on the podcast this week. Now available.

This can only mean one thing... The Beyond the Ultimate Highland Ultra 2026 is about to begin. Runners arriving at Inverie on the Knoydart peninsula for registration.

And just like that.... We have a 2 year old.

Went to Ireland, got married, had Guinness, met Steve & Dave aka the #HappyPear, swam in the sea at sunrise and left feeling inspired. @stefrunssheff.bsky.social

The mental fortitude required to pick himself up a 4th time, and run what looked from the outside to be a perfect race, is exceptional and everyone here at the Spine Race is incredibly pleased to see him reach his goal at last. #spinerace 📸 @willbaldlygo.bsky.social

Legends at the Border Hotel. Spinks, Collison, Gossage, Kelly... It's been a fun packed afternoon at the @spinerace.bsky.social finish line
