Went for a run, I took the dog. Listened to some Spiritbox. Managed over 3 miles. Pretty pleased, not sure Ace enjoyed the rain or glacial pace.

Afternoon #RunningPunks and #JogDivision
Went for a run today, it was very short and very slow. I ran yesterday too, it was slightly longer but equally slow. I did listen to one of the best albums ever released. @gigsintoon.bsky.social posted something about it being 30 years old, seems unlikely

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?

Look what just arrived, the #FreeLeague are selling the #DragonBane core set for a very good price.
I wonder when I’ll run one of those adventures…..

Just received this EP by Scottish ska-punk band #TheHostiles. If you’re looking for a bit of energetic punk for this summer weather you’ll be pleased with this.

Morning #runningpunks, I did a run yesterday, a wee #Jimterval session, I’m repeating week 3 so the big one is next week. Great run, probably helped by a pair of shiny new shoes and Brave New World by #IronMaiden

Afternoon #RunningPunks,
A wee toasty lunchtime run, Punk Plan Week 3 Run 1. Listened to #Elvenking. Hope you’re all enjoying this weather!

Afternoon #RunningPunks,
In the plan today, Jimmy had me doing, an easy 6k. It was what should be considered an easy pace, but it wasn’t easy. I’d had the dog out for 7k walk earlier so I’m feeling quite virtuous. Listened to Apple Music’s Ska-Punk essentials, was pretty good.
Have a great day!

Just back from #RunningPunks plan W2R2, a warm day for it but good fun. Listened to #CJWildheart and @penfriendrocks.bsky.social

Tonight I went to run class. Lots of running backwards and forwards. Hard work but probably worth it and maybe even enjoyable.
Back to punk plan on Thursday

Thanks @penfriendrocks.bsky.social ,
Smashing album on equally delightful vinyl.
The challenge is how do get my girls to listen to it, without tainting it with it being something I bought.

Flying pace as well as flying the flag. No run for me today, out Friday and Saturday. So just a stroll with the dog.
Great work Marv! 🏃‍♂️🧷🤘

Hey #RunningPunks,
A short Friday #runchtime. Repeating the first run of the plan. A blasphemous soundtrack. Also Glasgow looking well despite the the cloud.
April 25, 2025 at 12:06 PM
What’s that #RunningPunks? Another run! Punk plan Week 1 Run 2, some run/walk interval type thing. Listened to Robot by #CJWildheart, thanks for the recommendation @e3jtp.bsky.social ! A bit of the new #EurekaMachines at the end
April 23, 2025 at 1:04 PM
Hey #RunningPunks,
Dragged myself out for punk plan Week 1 Run 1, again. This time I mean it. Listened to the new #CJWildheart album, Slots. It’s like some delightful marriage of Rancid and Therapy? Recommended.

I also picked up this beauty from @assaiglasgow.bsky.social yesterday. Along with the randomly/impulsively GarageBand Superstar by Lauran Hibbard
April 12, 2025 at 10:27 AM
Instead of doing record store day, I ordered these beauties from #ChrisCatalyst and #EurekaMachines, yesterday. Was surprised and delighted for them to arrive this morning.
April 12, 2025 at 10:27 AM
I believe I have a matching turntable! I hope you like it as much as I do!!?
March 28, 2025 at 5:48 PM
Caught #TheWildhearts at the Garage (Glasgow) last night. Great to see Jon Poole on bass with Ben and Pontus rocking hard too. #Ginger also on great form, which was a delight to see!

Afternoon #runningPunks, starting again, again. That was a very very hard 20 minutes, particularly the last two. Thanks to the mighty #jimmyWatkins for the training plan. Some super cheesy AOR, from The Night Flight Orchestra 🤘🏃‍♂️🧷
March 11, 2025 at 3:16 PM
Look what arrived!!! I’m in the office, so a long wait until I get home.

Crepes were acceptable. Batter probably too thick and too much baking powder from the pancakes, perhaps. Also they’re egg free due to the eldest’s allergy
March 4, 2025 at 7:14 PM
Happy Birth/Pancake Day to me. Trying out my new crepe pan. Will report back on crepe success in due course
