First parkrun in a month, and felt it as well! Bit of a slog, but what a stunning day. Ponty Park was beautiful. #RunningPunks

The end of an era. Year 7 beckons for our youngest.
It's been an emotional few weeks leading up to this point. She's been in a fab class with the best teacher we've ever met. 'Chidge' will never been forgotten.
If your children have that special teacher, treasure them.

Been into office a few times for training or events, but this is my first normal office day for almost a year.
Onboarding a new team member. Done it a few times, always awake at stupid o clock with a few nerves.
Team lunch today and lunchtime run with colleagues tomorrow.

A beautiful start to the day, but seeing as it's colder than my ex-girlfriend's heart I still think we should all go back to bed and try again tomorrow.

You were ground breaking, brilliant, and ridiculously beautiful.
We still miss you.

Done this earlier today! First run since September.
C25K from square one. W1 R1. Better than I expected, and tbh was nice to escape everyone and get some fresh air.
