I love the light we get at this time of year. Just wish I had shot this a bit slower and for longer

Thanks Windows, I'll remember to put something warm under my jacket

We're just back from Chamonix, my first time in 18 years and first time with trail running shoes. And I'm happy to say I'm fitter now than I was 18 years ago. #trailrunning #running #chamonix youtu.be/399mSeALY-E

Chamonix has been everything I'd hoped for, amazing trails and fitness increase without breaking myself. Nice little run in the forest with 508m of ascent. #trailrunning

First (and biggest) run of the holidays, 1281m of ascent. Up to Plan de l'Aiguille, along the Grande Balcony Nord to Montenvers, and back to the campsite. #trailrunning

A wee video of our trip last weekend, the views were glorious. Don't think I've ever had it hotter in the Scottish hills #hiking #wildcamping #munrobagging youtu.be/-dD0PLyf1oQ

Consistency pays off. Finally tipped over into the next category in my Garmin Endurance Score. Now to aim for "elite". #running

Anyone get a bit twitchy on recovery weeks when they see this? #running #runningtraining

A milestone week, first time in training I've hit an overall volume of 80km (1066m of ascent), mostly in back-to-back long runs. Now into a recovery week. #running #trailrunning www.youtube.com/watch?v=525w...

Well, that was tough going! First ever marathon distance training run, longest run by 8km, biggest overall running week at 76km. It was 664m of ascent and some of the paths were so overgrown that the going was difficult. Last 10km were hard, had IT band pain on my right knee. #running #trailrunning

Ready for tomorrow's long run! #trailrunning #running

Biggest run so far, yesterday. 34km with 960m of ascent. It was tough going! On the West Highland Way, Bridge of Orchy to Kinlochleven. #trailrunning #trailrunner youtu.be/wbnDcBFGwlg

Trying to decide what to wear tomorrow, jacket and shorts, full waterproofs or a wetsuit. At least there isn't much wind forecast. #trailrunning

Not the best run ever, tight calves and shins for most of it, just didn't feel smooth. But still managed to do 95% in zone 2, so that's a tick. It'll be a 54km week by the time I've had a recovery run tomorrow. Still a long way to go before I'm a 50 mile runner! #trailrunning youtu.be/3-83tWyAgww

Recent focus has just been about building more base and it's nice to feel I can now run longer distances at lower effort. youtu.be/wivgPoEeFqs #trailrunning

Beautiful installation on the beach in our village today youtu.be/qIhbhsExlFM (bit windy for the drone) #publicart

Well, that was a fun weekend! Short run on Saturday to save my legs for Sunday's Kickboxing grading, pizza from our brick oven on Saturday evening (taking carb loading seriously) then mountain biking with a couple of dads and the kids. #running #kickboxing #pizzaoven #mtb

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Carb loading for tomorrow's kickboxing grading #pizza

While not technically a trail run apart from the last 5km, I had a great day out on Sunday with my daughter, did 7 mountains. #trailrunning #hiking youtu.be/PZ49nt4Xpfk

Slow but steady progress on my long runs. From Sunday's 32km: - 79% in Z2, vs. 65% 2 weeks ago - All but the last 6 km in Z2, vs. 12km in Z3 2 weeks ago - Relative effort 115, vs. 145 2 weeks ago - Pace 5:55/km, vs. 6:10/km 2 weeks ago #trailrunning #running youtu.be/KXQqUKPeaAs

We're back home and I'm already missing the Lake District. My long run on our first day left me with DOMS for the rest of the week and left me with memories for a lifetime. Truly my biggest and best run to-date. #trailrunning #running youtu.be/FlQ6zy6iumw

A break from #trailrunning today, beautiful day for some #wildswimming in upper Eskdale. We've had an amazing time in the Lake District, cloudless skies every day.

What an incredible week we're having in the lake district, a mixture of #trailrunning #hillwalking and #wildswimming Luck like this with the weather doesn't come along very often. youtube.com/shorts/PJvBM...

Epic 27km, 1600m ascent run this morning, starting in Eskdale, heading up Scafell, down scrambling and up to Scafell Pike. Over 5hrs on feet. Tired but nothing feels broken. The weather could not have been better. youtube.com/shorts/Cf7fu... #trailrunning #running

Saturday's #trailrunning plan. A lot of ascent (for me) and a lot of sunshine. It's going to be epic. I am *so* excited for this run. #running

Recently feeling quite fatigued in the legs, but I might have turned the corner! My last long run was 4 days ago, I've run the 3 days since, and while my legs are a bit tired, they're not sore! It's the first time I've ever run 4 days consecutively. #running youtube.com/shorts/sgivj...

Heavy legs for the first third, but managed to push through. Felt easier 2 weeks ago. Progress is not a linear process. Looking forward to seeing how it feels after a few weeks of doing this route. #trailrunning #running #runningtraining

Picking up a bunch of flours for mother's day...

A must watch film. We are in awe of our co-founder Jasmin. Just watching this film brings back the emotions of waiting for Keith’s tweet in 2024. The drive, tenacity and endurance 🤩 The wonderful trail running community also shines through 😍 #bm100 youtu.be/PgTEsybXw-4?...

Up to now my big focus for my long runs has been adding distance sustainably, just building up time on feet. This week it's time to step things up by adding more ascent. Also last week I went too fast, so a big priority was to manage my effort level better #running #trailrunning youtu.be/Fu7GA_qvPvM

On paper, a good run. Same distance as last week, but 11s per km faster. However, my objective was to actually have lower relative effort. I find when my legs start to get tired I need to power through it, which is higher intensity. Anyone else feel the same? #running #trailrunning #runningtraining

It's been a long slog back to endurance after getting IT Band Syndrome in July last year, including having some Achilles tendonitis, but I'm finally back to running 30km on training runs. 🏃‍♂️ Now I need to get stronger on hills. 💪 #running #ultrarunning #runningtraining youtu.be/ZVIgnvOe3dA

Reaching out to all those involved in digital #a11y, have you any recommendations for training courses/certifications?

The second of my goal run recces, 24km Kinlochleven to Fort William, along the West Highland Way. At 740m, it's the most ascent I've done in over a year, and I felt it! Beautiful place to run, I look forward to visiting it again. youtu.be/NCtOSD3jGA0 #running #trailrunning

Anyone else struggle to sleep on the nights after their long runs? I've done all the usual things, baths etc, I just find I am restless and too hot. Any tips? #running

Digital friends, if you're ever looking for a good example of a chatbot (as many are still so bad), these guys seem to be doing a good job: www.bulk.com/uk/ It can find you information about things like returns policy but it also does a great job on product recommendations. #digital

Short video of my West Highland Way run at the weekend #running #trailrunning #scotland youtu.be/GITLb8k_DFM

The plan said "recovery week, long run 11km", circumstances said "you're in the Highlands of Scotland for the weekend, there's snow underfoot and the weather is great". Ran a section of the West Highland Way, conditions couldn't have been better, apart from a few fallen trees #running #trailrunning

This week is one of my regular recovery weeks. Fast run becomes a slow run, long run becomes a good bit shorter and strength sessions condensed into 1 full-body session. Curious to hear how others structure de-load weeks? #running #runningtraining

My shed smells like a distillery... Planing an offcut from one of my stack of oak slabs from a tree I had milled. 2.5" thick cutting board should last a few years. #woodworking #diy

This week's evening project sees the intersection of two hobbies: #running #fitness and #diy. Welding up this shelving to store my weights stuff. Will get clad in oak in the future. Nice to have it all tidied away but still accessible.

Out for a tempo run this morning, starting to feel a bit stronger on these shorter runs. Hopefully a sign of more to come and hopefully get a bit quicker! #running

Looking forward to the day when this sort of run doesn't result in quite so much stress afterwards. Hopefully that's the case by April/May. #running

Last night I had an awesome dream, most of the details have been lost to sleep but I remember waking up thinking "it would be really cool to have a Harry Potter/sci-fi crossover movie, maybe something like Harry vs. Predator"... 🤪

Cold wind this morning but beautiful. Legs tired from a combination of some sort of virus (thankfully almost recovered) and Saturday's 21.1k. Third run of the year and 6th Strava activity. Off to a good start and hopefully onwards and upwards! #running
