Lunchtime run
We ran from Harestanes up to the Waterloo Memorial and back, a mainly circular route, all tracks, 8.5k. A lovely temperature.

The third photograph shows the lochan that many years ago we unwisely thought 'looks lovely let's get in'. Turns out there is 1m of water above a thick, deep sludge so never again - plastic bags on the seats of the car and several showers to get clean again.
In july i'll pbly have a few days all on my own ...
What should i do ?
[ ] bikepacking ?
[ ] hiking ?
[ ] camping in the middle of Alps / Pyrénées / Auvergne and run every surrounding summits ?
I ran 5 miles in 93 degree heat this evening. Definitely going to need to switch to another time as the temps pick up in the afternoon.
9k taper #2 ... 8 days to the 50k .... so much can happen... I will just let it happen..

Trail run 15K
Today we a national holiday . Used that opportunity to go to the trails for today’s run
… after a bit of gardening
. Nice and calm. Many folks had found their way out to the forest to enjoy the (rather ok weather wise) day out … had to politely run past a few family crowds 
I am almost there!!
My #running goal is completed.
But my fundraising goal is so close! There is still time to donate, if you wish to do so and have the ability to. Any small amount helps. The funds go to the great #montreal children's hospital Ste Justine foundation.
I am deeply grateful to all of you who already donated, and everyone else who considered it.

Major achievement unlocked on this long morning run as I completed the 191.46km I had set out to cover this May in support of The Danish Multiple Sclerosis Society.

Take care, people. Make the best of it.
Trying a carbon-plated trail runner (Endorphin Edge). Less bounce on dirt, but you feel it going uphill. Stable on hard-packed downhill. A little unstable on uneven downhill with roots. Needs heel lock lacing because I sized up for width. #running
First snake sighting today, sure sign of spring. Down low 1900m on start of our Nichols Crk. trail run rite behind town. Only snow left now on N facing slope at top 2270m. So green and wildflowers in full swing, Relatively cool 14-18C, savoring it. Will be very warm/dry soon enough. #running #dogs #wildlife #montana #spring #wildflowers #climate #mountains
Well, friends. I spent a very enjoyable and arguably very weird evening #running all about town with a bunch of like-minded people, searching for clues on our running scramble. Think it was about 10k in the end, although a lot of it was foraging in trees looking for clues (which is why I was found hiding in a bush with no trousers on, Your Honour). Lovely bunch of people. Arguably we won, although it wasn't about that (IT TOTALLY WAS WE BEAT THAT OTHER TEAM OF TOTAL LOSERS AAAAAAAH). Although they claimed some technicality that one of the 'evidence photos' we took we weren't all in because we lost half of our team somehow at one point. But I think that is a travesty of justice and they're just sore losers. Ultimately the real winner was Guys Hospital, which we raised a very respectable amount of cash for and now I feel like I've done some small material good in the world and am pretty happy all over. Made some tofu souvlaki earlier with seasoned wedges and aoili and whatnot, which is surprisingly excellent, and am now going to sit down and chill like a vill. Beaming all the best to you absolute bunch of legends. May your names echo through the Halls of Valhalla for all eternity. X
WHAT A DAY!
Right...... I'm now off for a 7k scramble (treasure hunt) event to raise money for Guys Hospital. Give some bloody money to Guys Hospital you bastards! Only joking - we've tripled the target so I will let you off. This is how I relax now. It's so chaotic at home with work and family I have to literally run away to get any peace. Hope you're marvellous and I must tell you this...... I love you. PEACE OUT HOMIES. X
I'm down for some #MakroMittwoch and #webwednesday . The run was foggy and exhilarating.
We went to Austin to visit my son and Wonder Woman spontaneously decided to enter a local trail race, where she placed third in the masters division. #running
Morning run
A combination of roads and tracks up through the Mintos (makes two little hillocks sound grand doesn't it ). After a year of relatively gentle running (not enough time) we are just getting back to doing a reasonable distance per day, even if split over 3 sessions. The dug still waits for me with a slightly pained look on his face. 13k, missed the showers and a very comfortable temerature.
This run 2day is for our friend @randomized
