Nicky Spinks brings back Bruce's Crown. Marks write up of a pretty cool event...

[PyllonUltra @PyllonUltra]

"Doing this in the dark is fun. These hills have a character of their own, unlike any I know in the UK - even the names are unique - Curleywee, the Little Spear, Cragmasheenie..."

🥳 Congratulations to Sarah Attwood and John Connolly, winners of our National XC Handicap! Both have been brilliant additions to the gang and we’re buzzing they picked up this accolade in their first XC year with us!

🤩 Well done both!

@gwilymeades @PyllonUltra Personally I would suggest runnable trail or tarmac so the terrain doesn't limit the intensity you run at. There is a place for practicing running fast on technical trail though.

[Young Hearts Run Free Podcast 🎧 @yhrfpod]

We caught up with Kayleigh Webster for this weeks episode. A wearer of Buffs (in her own unique style), a champion of eating bananas, and a runner who dares to dream big. A quite brilliant chat, and one we are sure you will lap up (BYU pun intended)

Who is the man behind the 3,000 kilometer run along the Te Araroa Trail in New Zealand?

[PyllonUltra @PyllonUltra]

"I plan to run across New Zealand as fast as I can."

Paul's 2021 End-to-End trail, which took him the length of the UK has inspired him to take on a new country.

Te Araroa is one of the world’s most diverse and challenging trails. Are you following him?

"The trick is to really give a shit & not give a shit at the same time"

This is a quote from Pyllon coach, Grant MacDonald talking about racing strategy on the Young Hearts Young Free podcast.

It may sound simple, but it's pretty tough.

Do you have this mindset?

[Grant MacDonald @g_macd]

@DerekJFish @PyllonUltra @vjsportshoes Big VJmaxx fan here too

@stevemagness Ha, had the same experience with Garmin 945. Told me our 1st unbroken night's sleep since baby was poor quality. It wasn't it was fucking glorious.

[PyllonUltra @PyllonUltra]

Can you even comprehend running 236 miles across Scotland?

Have you ever considered organising an epic adventure instead of running in a race?

We talk to @romybeard about her recent escapades - Taking the Highland High Way.

@JohnConnolly77 - her coach - features as well :-)

Tell us what you think 😁

@malceye @PyllonUltra That is the hardest and most important bit 🙂

[Grant MacDonald @g_macd]

@AliRunsWrite Gu do a birthday cake flavour gel. Is that close enough to wedding cake flavour?

[Grant MacDonald @g_macd]

@AliRunsWrite Put your coaching hat on and carry a gel. Important to fuel your wedding celebrations correctly
