It's better to travel hopefully than arrive. Occupational therapist, fledgling researcher, MClinRes student, haphazard knitter and runner.

Croatia have decided to donate all their £21 million prize money and bonuses to underprivileged children so that they can go on summer holidays. 🇭🇷 What a gesture 🙏

@angryjogger It was an easier prospect while I was child free! Fancy babysitting for me...?

[Cassie @knittingpenguin]

@angryjogger Glad you enjoyed it! I should crack on with the Yorkshire half, it’s only been 6 years since I started...

[Cassie @knittingpenguin]

@ImIronSam @EnduranceCoach @Ironman_UK Congratulations! That’s some amazing hard work.

[Cassie @knittingpenguin]

@EnduranceCoach @Ironman_UK I’ll keep hunting. Genuinely would love to do triathlon, but am nearly equally rubbish at all three disciplines! Thanks.

[Cassie @knittingpenguin]

@EnduranceCoach @Ironman_UK No, I was after something a bit more low level (I also failed my cycling proficiency as a child, so triathlon is highly unlikely) just thought you might be aware of somewhere beyond the obvious places I’ve thought of.

[Cassie @knittingpenguin]

@EnduranceCoach @Ironman_UK Wigan/Chorley. Wigan baths do them but from the timetable seem to think that people who work don’t want to learn to swim...

[Cassie @knittingpenguin]

@angryjogger @helentamblyn Yup. Regular Juneathoner a few years ago. My (now neglected) blog’s in my bio, there’s canal stuff in there if you want spoilers. You’re on for a nice stretch. This is the alternative route down to the wee branch section.

[Cassie @knittingpenguin]

@angryjogger PS. We have a mutual friend in @helentamblyn, I’m not just entirely weird twitter stalker.

[Cassie @knittingpenguin]

@angryjogger It’s very much a small town posh golf club with the compulsory arses that go with it. I would say bollocks to them. Also, if you need a lift with anything over the next day or so, give me a shout. (I should have said that yesterday.)

[Cassie @knittingpenguin]

@angryjogger If you get your bearings right, you could join the canal on the closed branch section and then rejoin after Johnson’s Hillock. Or if you’ve not done Johnson’s Hillock, do it. It’s nice. And downhill going your direction.

[Cassie @knittingpenguin]

@angryjogger It just sucks you in and spits you out. Well at various times in my life I have been drunk and tried stealing Christmas tree decorations, given blood and sledged on that golf course.

[Cassie @knittingpenguin]

@angryjogger Shaw Hill? Am intrigued how you got lost on the canal mind you.

[Cassie @knittingpenguin]

@angryjogger Hurrah! Welcome to my neck of the woods.

[Cassie @knittingpenguin]

Just stalked the first bib number I spotted. Turns out it was @Noaveragejoe88. No wonder he looked quite good.

[Cassie @knittingpenguin]

Accidentally timed my run to see the first @Ironman_UK bikes going through the village. Every year I am in awe of every single incredible athlete taking part.

[Cassie @knittingpenguin]

@angryjogger There’s some boring bits and then it gets more interesting. My local stretch is Wheelton and can recommend Fredericks for ice cream when you get to Adlington.
