V early run, taking a friend to the train station. Easy paced miles, I love the quiet of a weekend run.<100 miles until I reach my mileage target. I like the sense of achievement but it’s built on every run being enjoyable

Relaxed run to and along the Mersey embankment. 10°C but breezy and Jupiter seen in the clear sky. Great to get a run in before the rain arrives later this morning 👍.

Back to running after 2 rest days. Easy paced run around the park and Mersey embankment. Feeling good so did some hills and strides. V warm, might go for a short sleeved tomorrow. 2x🦊 this morning.

Fine run this morning after better sleep & listening to the conclusion of my audiobook. Added some sprints. Blessed by a Productive run by Garmin and 2 achievements by Strava. Great to start the week with a feel-good run.

Early run with just an occasional shower. Forgot to start my Garmin watch initially so it was really 9 miles - but who’s counting? Not fast but therapeutic ‘me time’ listening to my audiobook.

Persistent light rain & 5h sleep but the run was fab, went an extra mile & did hill sprints. Not unpleasant conditions & a waterproof gilet was all that was required. Entertained by my audiobook, 2 x🦊 & docking Belfast ferry

2°with some ice in puddles, gilet, gloves and shorts. Decent run despite <6h sleep, even did some hill sprints. Wicked double bill at the cinema tonight- chance for a decent snooze 🤞. Rest day tomorrow.

2°C and potential for sleet so it was the grippy Hoka Challengers this morning and a few laps of the park entertained by my audiobook. Sleet held off and my windproof gilet kept my core warm. 🦊=6 or 7.

2°C with the windchill but still ok when wearing a windproof gilet (& shorts). Thankfully no rain. Gorgeous sky with a waning crescent moon. A pleasant, relaxed run listening to my audiobook. Hoka Cliftons now at 900 miles

4°C and a starry sky, a lightweight windproof gilet needed. Planned a short-ish run but found running easy so added an extra mile and some hill sprints. Good fun. Monday miles are always very satisfying.

A bit of insomnia last night but up early for a run. One of those mornings when running felt easy. A ‘Productive’ run according to Garmin and a Strava achievement too (in a dodgy area of Birkenhead!). A ‘feel good’ run 👍

Wet & windy thanks to Storm Claudia so just an easy park run. Waterproof gilet sufficed. Not unpleasant and it would be boring if the weather was the same every day! New audiobook, a suspicious death in Liverpool 😬. 🦊=2.

Starlit skies & mild weather for this morning’s run. 3🦊 in the park, eyes looking at me! No ITB twinges during/after the run so thinking I’m back. The James Dunne glute exercises on YouTube working/fixing the biomechanics

Early out this morning, a bit of insomnia, and adding an extra mile to be blessed by the Garmin gods with a Productive run. Early enough even to see the Belfast ferry docking in Birkenhead. ITB behaving 👍

ITB a lot better, strengthening exercises are working, so getting back to normal mileage now. Trying to focus on running form, standing more upright to allow glutes to work. Great to start the week with a satisfying run👍

If there is 'no money' and the richest are richer than ever, and getting richer faster than ever.

There is only one solution.

And it ain't cuts for Disabled People and pensioners.

ITB feeling much better, seems strengthening exercises are working. Slow run but further afield, down to the Mersey today with good views over Liverpool. Happy running, enjoying the mild weather, listening to my audiobook👍

ITB recovery continues, 6 mile run further afield, few twinges. Enjoying my audiobook, the mild weather & the quiet early morning run. Root cause is weak glutes so continuing the strengthening exercises. Happy running folks👍

ITB progress with a slow 5 mile run this morning. Still being disciplined with the strengthening exercises. A new audiobook too- there’s been a suspicious death in the Cuillins 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. 🦊 =5 this morning

ITB recovery continues. Schedule was for 2 miles today but as my ITB wasn’t grumbling I ran 4 miles - just enjoying being out, the good weather & my audiobook. Working on my weak glutes before & after the run. 🦊 =1 today

Running isn’t just about running. I love getting out, seeing nature, having a sense of accomplishment, enhancing my physical and mental health and (for those that know me) being annoyingly happy 👍

Hey, remember when Farage said immigration was suppressing wages and people should vote for Brexit to be better off?
Well here he is, having got his Brexit, saying he’d lower wages himself if he became PM!
Can we all now please ignore the lying little prick because he just talks absolute shite.

Nigel Farage to promise business deregulation.

Translation - Human, employment, consumer, environmental rights will be thrashed. Real wage cuts. Corporate abuses, profiteering unchecked.

Pledge to cut govt spending - cut pensions/benefits. impose austerity. Don't be old, poor, sick, disabled.

On the ITB rehabilitation schedule was a 30 minute 3min/1min run/walk.Followed the James Dunne stretches beforehand. No pain/twinges until 2 miles, but then only 2/10 pain. Good to be out even in rain. Stretches day tomorrow
