Day 1 (65km) of Hadrian's Wall path from Carlisle castle to Newcastle castle (~105km) ✔✔ Lessons learned: • it's Hilly. As. F*ck. I can see why you'd build a wall in some places but nature did just fine to keep anyone out in other places...⛰ 😥 • body tentatively seems... fine. Though tbc what it'll be like in morning. But so far a good lesson that I can cope over 42km (at a casual pace) 💪did last 3km at 4min/km pace too 😂 • honesty boxes along course are such s lovely idea and a life saver to refuel as not too many grocery stores around... 🍫 • cowdung-fly swarms are a pain. Flies don't taste too nice either 🐝🤢 • it can be surprisingly hot in Northumberland when the sun's out...☀️🔥☀️

When a picture paints a thousand words.... 🔥🔥😥 though, if you DO want the 1,000 word version and my review of the race, please check out my blog ☺ www.80runs.co.uk #londonmarathon2018 #londonmarathon #spiritoflondon

Well, that was BRUTAL 🔥🔥☀️☀️ But I finished, albeit 23 minutes slower than last time! 3h16 is not a time to sing about but who cares, I didn't keel over so 💪💪 #londonmarathon #londonmarathon2018 #spiritoflondon

👋👋 Look, Mum, I'm on TV!! 👟🏃‍♂️😎📺🔴⚫🔴 ° ° One of the perks of being dressed like Denis the menace and being a foot taller than the average Spaniard! 😂

Sometimes runs just really make you wonder why you bother and whether to hang boots up for certain distances... but hey, there's nothing like a good whinge to make you sound miserable! 😁🤹‍♂️ But, that said, the really well organised IAAF World Champs in beautiful Valencia can best be summarised by emojis as that's what kids do these days: 🌬🌬 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🤕😒😩... Or something like that. Link in profile or here https://80runs.co.uk/2018/03/28/race-52-iaaf-world-half-marathon-championships-valencia-spain-24-march-2018/

Zig zag zig zag zig zag.... for anyone who knows my love of hills, Mallorca is a dream come true. 🤤🤢

Ah, the Spanish seaside... the sun, the sand... the freezing rain, the stormy clouds... 😝🌧🌬☔ Review of race #51 San Sebastian marathon and decent-ish 2h54 is now online! 😊 www.80runs.co.uk - link in profile!

Being a proper Finn and jumping in 3 degrees sea after a run & sauna ☃️⛄☃️❄❄❄

**Finally, a non-running post!** Busy few days working hard 😁👨‍💼 (and spotting a few important and/or famous people here and there...📸📸)

24 hours ago, I was sheepishly asking the info desk lady if I could pull out at half way (it's 2 laps) and still get a HM time such had been the pain in my gammy foot for the last 2 weeks. Think hammer, nail, bone. 🔨👣🔨(answer: no) A week of frustrating rest and the foot held up for San Sebastian marathon in 2h54, just 2 minutes shy of PB.😊 Happy with it considering the limited recent training and the fact I aimed to take it easy. Such a fast course mind you, makes me think "what if"..! In better news, another PB for @pippamessenger and 9 minutes off HM PB in last 7 months in 1h48! 😁😚 • 🌎 • 🏃‍♂️ • 🌎 www.80runs.co.uk link in profile • 🏃‍♂️ • 🌎 • 🏃‍♂️ #sansebastian #sansebastianmarathon #donostia #maratondonostia #espana #marathon #runchat #running #run #runners #runner #runnersofinstagram #runnersofig #igrunners #igrunner #igrun #fitness #fitnessmotivation #travel #travelblog #runningcommunity #pulsinandbeond #veganrunner #vegan #running_highlight #thisgirlcan #couplegoals

Ljubljana Half Marathon ✔✅✔ • • Positives ⬆️: - fastest HM in 18 months (1h22) - it was windy as f*ck so I can probably claim a quarter of my time back 😎😂! 🌬 - @pippamessenger got massive 7 minute PB (1h50) 😚💪 • • Negatives ⬇️: - super fast course and still a good 2+ minutes off what could comfortably do early 2016 🐌 - I was kinda bored... most likely caused by this downward facing plateau. might need to find a new distance to focus on next year to find mojo again! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️ • • www.80runs.co.uk • • • • #running #run #runners #runner #runnersofinstagram #runnersofig #igrunners #igrunner #fitness #fitnessmotivation #travel #travelblog #Ljubljana #ljubljanamaraton #Slovenia #runchat #runninngcommunity #pulsinandbeond
