BREAKING: The right to wild camp on Dartmoor has been restored!

Darwall's court case sparked a huge backlash & the biggest land rights protest in a generation.

But this is not the end - we now need a new Right to Roam Act for England. Join @Right_2Roam!

To take action, you could: donate, share my page, learn more, do your own fundraising, or even recommend the charity to your employer / organisation to provide fundraising support.

Thanks for reading 🙂

I'm running for the @RosaForWomen Fund in aid of UK women and girls 🧵

On Jan 8th, in the depths of winter, I will be running one of the most challenging fell races in the calendar, the Trigger fell race. It’s around 23.6 miles, self-navigated with map...

[Aaron Bailey Ⓥ @IdoAdventures]

This cause really means a lot to me - and probably most people - and I would be eternally grateful if you could show your support in any way you can.

@evelynflynngray I reckon they should all be done, on the same day, in that exact order. Followed by snacks.

Just looked at the prices of some races....I think I've been in a cave too long.😳 how does one afford it? Surely we're outpricing people.

I was cutting down an invasive spruce tree in the moors, minding my own business, when I had a surprise visitor. Got a wave back from the guy in the side gunner widow, which was actually quite cool.

So impressed with fellow Slaithwaite Striders club runner Michael, who seems to have actually *sprinted* the Montane Summer Spine Sprint to claim FIRST PLACE with a hefty lead on the following runners. 🙌👏

Michael Hyde wins the Montane Summer Spine Sprint 2022. He takes the win having led for most of the race, with a significant lead over the chasing pack, and in just under 8hrs.

Massive Congratulations to Michael on his amazing performance.

Just another day in the office

@MontaneOfficial @TheSpineRace Wow, Michael. I know its called the ‘Sprint’ but you’re not supposed to take that literally!

Slaithwaite Striders FTW! 🥇💚

@Daffooo I love goldfinches too. If you want to get more into your birding, I recommend the app Merlin Bird ID. You can also record your sightings on the app eBird, which conveniently integrates with Merlin. Both are free + no adverts 👌

@Conway_Sean Year supply of whiskey?

An old post but one of my faves.
This is the sort of thing body-image should really be about!
Instead of size 'zero', I think we could all benefit from idolising size '2,000-miles-completed' instead.

Well worth the 2 min read.

@racin__grayson I’ve still got all the medals I’ve ever got but could certainly give up the t-shirts. It’s just more clutter and, as you say, less sustainable.
I like the idea of @treesnottees where organisers can put the money to planting a tree instead of giving a T-shirt. Much better idea!

Thank you @PhoebeRSmith for sharing this valuable insight.

Yesterday I wrote this for @OutdoorsMagic in what turned out to be quite an (unexpectedly) emotive experience for me. I hope it prompts discussion as the outdoors experience should be a safe space for all...
