My ‘True cost of running’ in 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, and in 2023 posts turned out to be quite popular, so I decided to work out how much I managed to spend on what I call running-related purchases in a year that happily featured more running than last year. I decided to use the same categories; running clothes and trainers, running accessories, race entries,…
Good morning and happy Monday. As always, I hope whoever takes the time to read my latest training and life update had a great weekend. If, for whatever reason, you didn’t have a very good weekend, I hope that the next seven days are more positive. My weekend had a couple of highlights, volunteering at Sutton Park parkrun and finding running for 25 minutes relatively…
Good morning. As always, I hope whoever takes the time to read this weekly life and training update had an amazing weekend. If, for whatever reason, your weekend wasn’t great, I hope the next seven days are more positive. My weekend had a couple of highlights; a sociable Sutton Park parkrun and running for 20 minutes without taking a walking break. The NHS Live Well…
Good morning and happy(?) Monday. As always, I hope whoever takes the time to read this weekly life and training update containing a fair amount of waffle and food photos had an amazing weekend. I’ve said it before, but if, for whatever reason, you didn’t have a very good weekend, I hope the next seven days are more positive. My weekend had two highlights; setting…
Good morning. I can’t believe it’s Monday morning again. As always, I hope whoever reads this life and training update had a fabulous weekend. If, like me, you didn’t, I hope that the next seven days are more positive for both of us. For the reasons I outlined last week, I decided to start again with the Couch to 5k training plan that is available on…
Good morning. Happy Monday. As always, I hope whoever reads this life and training update had an amazing weekend. If, for whatever reason, you didn’t, I hope that the week ahead is kinder to you. My weekend had two highlights: walking (and running) Sutton Park parkrun with Ellen and making a start on my C****tmas shopping. For the reasons I outlined last week, I decided…
Good morning and happy(?) Monday. I’ve just realised I haven’t shared a any sort of update on here since May. If I had to summarise the last six months or so in four words I’d go with illnesses, injuries and intermittent running. As always, I hope that whoever takes the time to read this weekly life and running update had a fab weekend. If, for…

Good morning and happy Tuesday. As always, I hope whoever takes the time to read what is likely to turn into a lengthy weekly update blog containing a fair amount of waffle and food photos had a great weekend. My weekend had a couple of highlights; a post-parkrun trip to McDonald’s for a healthy brunch and running for 20 minutes on Sunday morning without my…
Good afternoon and happy(?) Monday. As always, I hope whoever takes the time to read what is likely to turn into a lengthy weekly update blog containing a fair amount of waffle had a great weekend. My weekend had three highlights; volunteering as a parkwalker at my local parkrun, somehow managing to run for 20 minutes, and a homecooked Sunday lunch. The NHS Live Well…
