Muddy run in the dark with my club. Got lost, had to climb a fence, went for a beer after and there was a log fire. So much happy 😊 #blueskyrunning

A golden hour of #running to some loud guitar music. Glorious. Best bit: the long mile of gentle downhill to Rancid and the Offspring. Happy place 😎 #blueskyrunners #runningpunks

My evening of blanket edging has hit a snag. Cannot turn blanket to work more edging when blanket has a cat weighing it down. He is keeping my toes gloriously cosy though 🥰 #crochet #catsofbluesky

Very cold and clear tonight. I predict we have our first frost this winter tomorrow ❄️

Happy #parkrunday - went for some local touristing to Cirencester today, as it’s been my NENDY for ages. Lovely course, and a beautiful day for it. #parkrun #parkruntourism

Glorious morning for a run. Did my favourite 10k local loop for the last time until spring when it dries up (there’s about a mile of trail and it was super slippy today). PR up the hill (86m) to get to it, which feels good 😊 #runchat

Joint effort on our pumpkins from me and the teen - he drew and I carved. I think the one on the left has a @nightvaleradio.bsky.social vibe #happyhalloween 🎃

Time to bust out the #Halloween running leggings for #parkrun this morning (and yes, trail shoes. Looks muddy today!)

Went to #parkrun with no real agenda other than “faster than last week” (29m15). Somehow breezed round in 27m57, even with some funnel queuing, feeling very strong, and smashing half a minute off my previous PB for the Cheltenham summer course. Well pleased with that!

Won the battle against the duvet and got out there early today. First 10k in a few weeks. Knee feels fine 😎 No photos as it was both dark and misty #5amrunclub #mondayrunday

Happy #parkrunday had a good push today and got my time down again for the third week in a row. Hoping he next week I’ll actually be able to get out and train a bit more, but this felt good today #parkrun 🦢

Second #cheltlitfest event: the fabulous @nataliehaynes.bsky.social doing what was effectively a standup comedy telling of Medea. Loved this

After a difficult day I decided to go out to the #cheltlitfest events I bought tickets for before life got hard. First up: @pauls-h.bsky.social talking about #parkrun. Then went and met him to say thank you for how much happiness I’ve had from it. What a legend

After a big gap I finally made it out for a club trail run tonight. Hills through the woods in the dark. Owls a-hooting. Tree roots a-stumbling. That blew away the cobwebs! #runchat #trailrunning #blueskyrunners

A very breezy #parkrun this morning in Cheltenham. Definitely feel like I’m skirting a cold, but so lovely in the park today it was lovely to get out 🍂

A sub-30 #parkrun and only the slightest of twinges in my knee (on the walk home!). Very good. The start line had a lot of us wearing our finisher shirts from the Cheltenham Half last weekend (does that happen in every town the week after the big local race?). Lovely autumn vibes today🍁
