Good morning/afternoon/evening etc. As always, I want to start by saying that I hope that whoever takes the time to read this slightly belated weekly life and training update had a great weekend. If for whatever reason, your weekend wasn’t great, I hope that the next few days are more positive. My weekend had a couple of highlights, spending some time with my brother and…
Good morning/afternoon/evening/night. As always, I hope that whoever takes the time to read my latest weekly life and training update had a good weekend. If for whatever reason, your weekend wasn’t great, I hope that the next seven days are more positive. If you took part in an organised event, I can’t wait to see your Medal Monday posts and race reports. The NHS Live…
Good morning. Happy(?) Monday. As always, I hope that whoever takes the time to read this weekly life and training update had an amazing weekend. If for whatever reason, you didn’t have a very good weekend, I hope that the week ahead is kinder to you. My weekend had a couple of highlights; volunteering as a marshal at Sutton Park parkrun and watching Wolves win…
Good morning and happy Bank Holiday Monday. I hope that whoever takes the time to read my latest weekly training and life update is having an amazing long weekend. If you happen to read this blog at a later date, I hope that you are keeping well and that you enjoy this insight into the weekly trials and tribulations of an unfit hydrologist. I know…
Good morning and happy Monday. I’m not aiming to walk or run a thousand miles; however, I would love to be able to run 5k in approximately nine weeks’ time. After not running since May last year, I would love to complete the Couch to 5k. Anyway, I hope that whoever takes the time to read what I suspect will turn into a lengthy blog…
I hope that whoever takes the time to read this is having a great week. I can’t believe that we are now in the second half of 2022. At the start of January, I shared my running, walking, and parkrun goals for the year ahead. One of my goals was to walk a minimum of 100 km (62.1 miles) each month. When, midway through January,…
I want to start by saying that I promise this isn’t going to turn into a really pushy post telling people that they *must* volunteer at parkrun. It took me a long time to pluck up the courage to volunteer at my local parkrun. At one stage my parkrun stats were the number of runs completed 28 and the number of volunteering stints completed zero.…
**Disclaimer: I’m writing this rants and raves post after spending the day ‘trapped’ inside my house waiting for a parcel to be delivered. So much for making the most of my annual leave. As a result, I have a suspicion that this rants and raves post may turn out to be a tad ranty and irrational. As always, all rants and raves and moans and…
Apologies for the complete silence on here. I was aware that I hadn’t written or published anything for a while, but I was amazed when I realised that my last post was published back in February. I must admit that being injured seems to have had a negative impact on my blogging mojo. I’m hoping to restart the Couch to 5k soon, if I do,…
**Disclaimer: I’m writing this rants and raves post after spending the day completing mandatory training courses. One of the training courses took over three hours to complete so I’m feeling a little bit grumpy. As a result, I have a feeling that this rants and raves post may turn out to be quite ranty. As always, all moans and groans and rants and raves represent…
