It’s been a long and tough journey with 7 weeks unable to run due to a slipped disc. But determination and the desire to save our club keeps me going.

Rising from #theashes - on the eve of the 1st test it seems a great time to ask for your support to help HWRCC rebuild after a fire destroyed our pavilion. I have 10 half marathons to go this year to hit my target of 50. justgiving.com/page/hitting50

Half marathon No37 of Hitting 50. Eight-and-a-half weeks to complete the final 13… all I have to do is remember why I am doing this challenge and it all becomes doable #running #runners

As part of the content system - the standfirst can’t be identical to the intro…!

Sorry @felicityhannah.bsky.social but that’s not the case. Your screenshot shows the “stand first” only…

All set for half marathon No30 of Hitting 50. Just over £500 need to reach two-thirds of my fundraising target. If you can spare a few pennies that would be amazing: www.justgiving.com/page/hitting50 #running #runners #cricket #mentalhealth

Brought a tear to my eye on the start line George. Really lovely stuff. And a few more tears of pain at the end.

That was tough. I am never - NEVER - running another half dressed in full cricket gear. #greatnorthrun #running #cricket

#greatnorthrun eve. Getting a little excited but mostly nervous about running a half in full cricket gear - still it’s for a great cause… to rebuild our pavilion that was destroyed in an arson attack. #running #runners #cricket

Hitting 50 heads to Newcastle in a few weeks for the AJ Bell Great North Run. The twist is I will be doing it in full cricket gear #stupididea #running If you can, please donate to HWRCC via this link: www.justgiving.com/page/hitting50

Major setback for Hitting 50 with a newly-diagnosed slipped disc. Laid up now for a 10 days. Any tips for a speedy recovery welcomed. #running #runners #backpain

Amazing to get a mention in the “go wells” of the latest Tailenders podcast. And some sage advice from the legendary Jimmy Anderson on not bowling a no ball. open.spotify.com/episode/7elm...
