First post pandemic real life race! πŸŽ‰ (is it post pandemic if the pandemic is still happening?)
Darlton 10k this morning. 10/10 for organisation. 24 small socially distant waves set off 5 minutes apart. Really impressed with it and it gives me a lot of hope for more small races being put on! πŸ™

2 hours of sleep, 2am start, 22 hours. πŸ₯³.

National Three Peaks is hard, and its really hard in super high humidity. The lightning show on the way down from Snowdon at 11pm was pretty sick though. ⚑

We did it πŸŽ‰
I still can't quite believe I've run an ultra, but I'm already thinking about the next one..
Barring a few blisters, my body actually feels pretty good, it's just the fatigue making things hard. πŸ˜…
How my legs can run 100km and still work is beyond me...
Looking forward to a week of yoga and a sports massage on Friday, might even go for a cheeky jog 😎 @ Avebury Stones

First back to back taper done βœ”οΈ
10km which was just running to and from Armley parkrun
I've never done Armley parkrun before, but I think this could be the start of a plan to tick off all the parkruns in Leeds.
It feels so weird that my long runs for the week are only 10km πŸ˜…
I've managed to avoid having any taper tantrums so far, but the lack of 5 hour long runs is definitely letting the boredom sink in.
It's crazy thinking this time next week I'll be knee deep in my first ultra πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…

Just a smidge over a week until Race to the Stones so I thought I'd have one last push of a run before it's all about carbs 🍞 and keeping the legs ticking over πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ
Leeds feels a bit like it's built on a mountain compared to Cheltenham ⛰️

Yesterday's 20 miles..
5 hours out in the sunshine after my last shift at work. 🌞
It was a bit hillier than I'd planned, but some nice and shady areas to help beat the heat. 🏞️
20 miles today, and because of who I am as a person they're probably going to be during the hottest part of the day.. πŸ˜… ice in the camelback anyone? ❄️ @ Stroud, Gloucestershire

Last club run with the almost athletes tonight. ☹️
A few months ago I couldn't wait to head back up north, and even though I am looking forward to it, it's hitting home that I'll be leaving behind an awful lot of fantastic people who have been so supportive and inspirational this year.
I've achieved so much this year with running, and I wouldn't have done it without this club.
My first marathon, my first trail marathon, inspiring me to train up for an ultra, helping me think that I may actually be able to run 100 miles one day...
Thanks to all the almost athletes for this year, I'll miss you.
I only have a few days left in Cheltenham, filled with running, go karting and some beers thrown in there hopefully.
On a positive note, I'm looking forward to running with the on Tuesday!

The second back to back run. πŸ”οΈ
Made it a pretty chilled half marathon that was all about the time on feet. πŸ‘£
Made a new friend, possibly the best running company ever! πŸ•
I'm surprised my legs felt as good as they did today, after the 10 miles yesterday.
I'm really looking forward to the back to backs, so much time to spend on the trails 🏞️
Might have an afternoon nap now though... @ Belas Knap

I AM A MARATHON RUNNER!
This was the hardest thing I've ever done.
When the beer wears off I'm going to feel a world of pain.
I got to meet some absolute hero's today.
I'll never forget this day.
Now, more beer?

TOMORROW IS RACE DAY πŸŽ‰
I've spent a whole year preparing for this, ran over 500km in training since new year, lost over 25lbs, raised over Β£2100 for and spent countless hours agonising over it.
My shakeout run is done, and tapering seems to have gone well because my legs are feeling good.
Time to buy some bagels, and have a little wander around.
London marathon let's fu***ng have you!!
