Awesome run - Over 7,000 runners, fab atmosphere and I improved on last year’s time! I was dead on my my feet by mile ten coming back down Ecclesall Road, but a stubborn unwillingness to give up saw me through, lol. #UKRunChat #Running #Sheffield #HalfMarathon #SheffieldHalfMarathon

“Drastic” cuts to UK humanities departments risk the loss of a new generation of academic talent similar to the brain drain seen in the 1980s, according to the new winner of the Holberg Prize, writes @jgro-the.bsky.social #AcademicSky #braindrain #HolbergPrize https://ow.ly/Zh3N50YuM11

What started out to be a nice steady plod round #LangoldLake turned into an absolute mud bath running back across the fields to Letwell. At one point I slipped and nearly fell in the lake (sorry - no photos of that though). #UKRunChat #Running #Sheffield #Jogging

Quick shout out for UK #HE and #FE folk attending #digifest26 - @littlebootevans.bsky.social and I will be facilitating a community #Wellbeing session. All welcome :) #Jisc

It’s tiring tormenting humans. Phoebe fell asleep in my arms moments after this photo was taken, but she fought it, as she doesn’t like to miss anything. #dachshund #daxie #sausagedog #photography

Finished Week 4 of training for the #SheffieldHalfMarathon and don't mind admitting that my body is feeling the strain. Today is a rest day, and boy do I need it. Rest days are an essential part of training, especially as you get older. Never feel guilty for resting! #Running #UKRunChat #Sheffield

"Leadership isn't always being the main character and doing everything, but recognising the skills of others and empowering them to shine." This quote came from a participant in a workshop I delivered yesterday. It's worth amplifying! #Leadership 💯

Yay - Sheffield Half Marathon entry in for late March. With just over 11 weeks to train can I get lean again after the Christmas splurge??! #UKRunChat #Sheffield #SheffieldHalfMarathon #Running #HalfMarathon #Motivation

Slow mornings rock. Woke up today with no rush, no alarm-induced panic, and zero desire to rush into “productivity mode.” Feeling positive, awake and doing my best to be the best version of me—even if that version still needs coffee to function ☕ Here’s to slow mornings and small wins 🤘

Thought for the day: I have yet to see any problem, however complicated, which, when looked at in the right way, did not become still more complicated. - Poul Anderson
