Great event in wilmslow today for half marathon. So well organised with amazing volunteers. Not the time I wanted but still so appreciative I can take on these challenges & enjoy them. A bit more patience & careful injury management is needed on my part.

Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks…

“The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

On this day 15 years ago these two younger looking fellas formed Know and Do Limited. We struck out on our own to try our hand at management consulting. I've loved the people we've met on the way, the variety of businesses and enterprises. My big thanks to Andrew Ramwell for the partnership!

Meanwhile, the appalling realities of Russian aggression in Ukraine continue. Local officials in Ukraine say at least one person was killed in the Black Sea port of Odesa and five others wounded in the eastern city of Kharkiv after Russia launched a wave of drones overnight.

Enjoyed a winter sun run around Goyt Valley & Shining Tor this am. Such a treat to have the Peak District so close. It was perfect weather for muddy trail run. A surprise to meet running mates out too. My knee held up on the hills & miles today so hopeful of longer runs in the spring

Birth to 5 matters is such a great document and it’s wonderful to see the DFE actively sharing it and promoting its use.

Much of what we think & believe isn't fact-based. We have 1st impressions, gut or funny feelings, fears, & sympathies. We've become a bit lazy about finding out facts, & it's getting increasingly harder. But it still remains our main, most important job.

On a very cold around Gun Moor, Peak District last wkend I took a selfie during a fab 10 mile trail run with a mate. I've just asked AI to produce me a professional looking version of the same picture as a test. Not sure I can spot the difference!! 😉
