I like to run, ultramarathons mostly :o)

@EvansCycles 1 month today since purchase, bike#2 been sitting with #Evri at delivery depot since 9:37am Tue 28th. Another lost bike? Your CS guy is doing what he can, but it's just not good enough. A bike company that can't fulfil, a delivery company that can't deliver 🤬

@EvansCycles entrusts #Evri (formerly #hermes) to deliver bikes but are powerless to chase missing deliveries when a bike ordered 10 days ago still hasn't arrived. Expected better from @EvansCycles, but sounds about on par for #Evri. One mega disappointed 9 year old (and his dad)

[jonmackintosh @jonmackintosh]

@EvansCycles #Evri admitted they 'lost' bike#1 @EvansCycles dispatched bike#2. It's further along tracking chain, but has been sitting at delivery depot since Tuesday morning. Why does anyone use #Evri?

@yoast Thank you for resolving this issue 👍

@yoast are you aware that recent update appears to brick PHP 5.x sites due to change in your Composer autoloader that will not work pre PHP 7.0. Thanks

On a day when practically every email was trying to sell something, this was thoroughly refreshing, a beautifully emotive short film which has unsurprisingly taken the Internet by storm. Brought a tear to the eyes 😢

Sole #blackfriday spend consisted of 3 new pairs of #drymax socks from @ULTRAmarathonRS. Unfortunately #suunto9 doesn’t appear to be in any black Friday sales so I’ll just have to dream on lol 😂

#scoltyhill #banchory 😄

[jonmackintosh @jonmackintosh]

2 busses there, 2 busses back, but it was worth it. 6.25 mile run at #scoltyhill #banchory. 2 ascents before the effects of the last few days running turned the fatigue up a notch! 😄

[jonmackintosh @jonmackintosh]

Aiming for 4th consecutive day of running, this time on Banchory’s Scolty Hill. So, after 5.4, 9.0, & 12.4 miles, be interesting to see how the legs feel with some hill work 😄

[jonmackintosh @jonmackintosh]

Remembering in my own way, out on the trail with just me & my thoughts. At just under 12.5 miles, my longest run since returning from injury. Ran a negative split to make it back to the war memorial in time for the Remembrance Silence #LestWeForget

[jonmackintosh @jonmackintosh]

9 mile run in the sun followed by the new #netflix offering #OutlawKing and, it has to be said, a good Scottish accent from #ChrisPine. Weird seeing Loch an Eilein as a battleground though! 😄

[jonmackintosh @jonmackintosh]

Late night at work, followed by freedom. Time for an extended 5 day weekend 😄

Love this story. Using drones to transport cables over natural obstacles is “...more reliable than previous methods which have included attaching cables to golf balls and hitting them over” 😂 https://t.co/RSIDEuV9Gu

@Flashywhiskers Given some of my previous trips/falls/flights and the resulting injuries, I was keen to avoid the potential for a repeat performance. My current injury status could do without any more additions 😂

[jonmackintosh @jonmackintosh]

Pitch black 5am trail run, headtorch flashing, reminding me I forgot to charge it, racing to get back to the sanctity of the street lights... and my 5 year old face times me for a chat. “What you doing?” 😂 (made it home in one piece!) #5amclub

[jonmackintosh @jonmackintosh]

4.5 early miles to follow on from Saturday’s 9 mile run. Hoped for longer but super tight calf muscles ‘advised’ against it. Tough but done & dusted, & my reward is a stunning coastal sunrise on the bus into work 😄 #5amclub

[jonmackintosh @jonmackintosh]

It got easier. The three magic words that best describe this morning’s 9 mile run along the Formartine & Buchan Way 😄

[jonmackintosh @jonmackintosh]

Pre #physio run this chilly morning, and first #headtorch run in a long time thanks to injury (definitely won’t be the last!) After the nightmare that was my last non treadmill run, pleased to say that this run was far more enjoyable! 😄
