A husband and daddy. I likes to run and commute to work by bike.
Over half way through another academic year. Worked Saturday. Sunday all about Arlo, he had a lovely day doing junior parkrun and then seeing family and friends for his 10th birthday party #Week20

Really good to have a change of scenery for the weekend. Cambridge is a lovely city with some interesting buildings and history. Boys loved punting on the River Cam. Aromi had excellent pizza 👌 #Week19

1p shirt day Saturday, worth the queue for me and @chantellecgrant. Coventry then beat Leicester. Sunday worked early, missed the rain #Week18

One week back, pretty cold week weather wise. Worked Saturday. Watched the boys run cross country at Pingles Sunday, Arlo’s best finish of the season. Today Finley was thrilled with his run at Sphinx #Week17

Quite quiet Christmas break try to rest and recharge. Visit to Lapland UK and to do The Snowman trail at Baddesley Clinton around Christmas. Very cold morning to go back to school but nice to have some snow on the floor #Week16

Boys ran Warwickshire cross country championships Saturday before football. Sunday was chilled, bauble making at Hobbycraft and a pantomime in Redditch. Tested chip timing for Sphinx this evening #Week15

Three day weekend. Managed to sort bits in the garden and get the boss’ Dahlias up for winter. Did parkrun Saturday and visited Santa. Sunday boys ran cross country at Newbold Revel, they were great in tough conditions #Week14

@coventrylive.bsky.social article about people getting injured in roads has some interesting comment #cycling #activetravel

Christmas party Friday, a little tired Saturday for football. Sunday morning Santa Dash at Packington Hall followed by choosing a Christmas tree at Friezeland Farm #Week13

Miserable weather in the week, same on Saturday. Luckily able to leave work early Saturday to get dry before the football, another City win. Sunday at the garden centre. Today met with the head, which was positive #Week12

Massive rain last week, didn’t make cycling that enjoyable. John, you’re going to geography. Manage to get the shummerhouse water tight with some help. Very cold start to the week #Week11

Apologies academic week fans, I missed last week. Basically all of half term was consumed constructing the shed/summerhouse. First week back was ok. Boys ran brilliantly yesterday at Warley Wood on a very hilly course in West Mids cross country league #Week10

“No one will cycle when it’s wet” Safer infrastructure is so important to encourage a new generation to make healthier and greener choices #bikeisbest #bikelife #lovetorife @coventrycc.bsky.social

City win again! Carl Rushworth was brilliant today. Numerous saves but one towards the end of the first half was incredible, he flew across the goal #PUSB

Pretty steady week and only one to go for October half term. Coventry got to 10 games unbeaten on Saturday, great start to the season with two more goals to take the club to 29 goals. Volunteered at War Memorial junior parkrun’s 200 event, incredible achievement #Week8

Yesterday not at our best but we still get a result #PUSB

Me and Arlo went to watch Coventry Sphinx after I’d been to work Saturday. Sunday the boys both ran for Sphinx AC in their first cross country at Walsall Arboretum. Me and @chantellecgrant.bsky.social helped out at Sphinx tonight. Sphinx weekend #Week7

What an away day Saturday?! Brilliant to see Coventry scoring so freely. Players were brilliant after the game having photos with Finley and Arlo. Today took some students from school to the cross country relay and the older boys won, brilliant way to start the week #Week6

The old five #PUSB

Every day last week was a long one. Football was great on Friday evening although I ached all over the weekend. Kidical Mass was good Saturday morning. Coventry were brilliant against Birmingham on Saturday afternoon #Week5
September 29, 2025 at 9:05 PM
That was great #PUSB

Boys went to the library challenge medal ceremony Saturday. Sunday boys did junior parkrun before a chilled day, we went for a nice walk in the afternoon. Today Finley ran schools cross country and was brilliant. This evening they officially became Sphinx AC members #Week4

If anyone fancies a short cycle around Coventry city centre next weekend please come and join Coventry’s Kidical Mass. We’ll be starting from the railway station at 10am Saturday 27th September 🚲 #KidicalMass #Coventry #BikeIsBest #StreetsStreets

Last week was a struggle feeling poorly for most of the week. Boys enjoyed going to a new club on Monday. I did the least amount of running in a week for a long time. I’m pleased to be feeling brighter #Week3

Credit to the Norwich physio today, he covered every blade of grass 😂 #PUSB
