  • Spent an awesome day today working with @shane.benzie from Running Reborn on my #run technique. So many things to work on but amazed at the progress made in such a short period of time. Excited about the coming weeks and months as I try to incorporate this into my #ultrarunning
  • Yet another beautiful #sunrise over #ely, which took the edge off the constant battle with #fenland mud and wind on this mornings #trailrun
  • First light spreading across The Fens #dawn #sunrise
  • Many thanks to @waylandacademynorfolk for the invitation to speak to their students yesterday, about my career and experiences as a #mountaineer and #ultrarunner. Such an #inspiration to meet the #nextgeneration and give the year 12 students their #gcse prizes. Remember, your job now is to go out and prove to the world that there is no such thing as #normalfornorfolk! Thanks and good luck all! #watton #norfolk #dofe
  • Another morning #run and another #sunrise over #ely #elycathedral #dawn
  • Yet aother stunning #dawn over #ely
  • Interesting who you meet coming down the lane towards you at #dawn when out #trailrunning. Morning #deer!
  • Nothing quite like a Friday #unboxing, getting the @ledlenser_official #neo10r ready for this weekends pre-dawn #run. Pleased to receive this at @therunningawards earlier this year. Heard a lot of good things about it and am looking forward to sharing my thoughts in due course.
