Running the Breeze

Shooting the breeze about all things running (and a few that aren't!)

[Running the Breeze @running_breeze]

Registration complete! That's one more step towards the start line. One more thing off my mind so I can relax that little bit more. I won't lie, this event takes pre-race jitters to a new level 🤣 just want to get started now.

The event team seem to … https://t.co/KHjzTSAZ0d

This book has a story to tell!
OK, all books have a story to tell, I'm saying this mouldy tome probably has an extra one. How did it end up on top of a dry stone wall next to a main road, where forest meets field? It must have been placed there but was i… https://t.co/OA3A2rE5NR

Well done to everyone running tonight in the #tynebridgeharriers anniversary 5km race! Perfect still conditions and a beautiful place to stand for my marshalling duties! #quaysidereflections

Rare run commute today. Need to get into the habit more often. It's a great way to get in some extra mileage with minimal impact on the day and, more importantly, if I had been in the car I wouldn't have got to spend time under the watch of Venus or been… https://t.co/FaG145CXSE

It was a pleasure being a part of this achievement. Every single member of Impact was there cheering and ready to celebrate!

@AnnaMcNuff @komoot A lost mojo has to be one of the hardest things to find again right!? Never known anyone to use the cold weather to get them OUT the door. Impressive! 👏👌

Being back in the office the this week after landing home from Nepal I feel odd. It feels such a cliche to say that I have returned from the short trip a different person, and being away for only a week it feels silly and extreme to claim some epiphany o… https://t.co/LhgzMhcuCl

Been back on the office today...I think part of me is still in Kielder....

19/20 for my double #rateyourrun
Full marks for the run bike run on Saturday, then one mark off for Sunday's marathon on the same course because my legs took a holiday between miles 20 and 25! Absolutely loved the entire weekend but it was properly tough!

#medalmonday time! Never actually done medal Monday before, most of the races I do don't have medals. Really proud of this collection my wife and I managed to gather over the weekend. Well done to all involved for all 10 editions of the #kieldermarathonw… https://t.co/YSkudIRtV0

@crunchynuttauk Thanks. Was only 7 minutes slower than last year and I felt good at the end. Forecast for tomorrow is less good! 🌧🌧

It's not every day you get to race against and beat an Olympian!
Pretty inspiring to run alongside Steve Cram for a little bit even if he did then effortlessly cruise away from me! Passed him in transition 1 and never saw him again.
Now it's all about re… https://t.co/KO1TOPnjn9

Soon to add a couple more to the collection! Looking forward to what I'm sure will be a tough weekend! Arthur seems pretty excited too, couldn't get a picture without him in it! #catsnotcamerashy

Love the personal touch in my first delivery from @tailwindnutritionuk
Arthur seems pretty excited to see how I get on trying out a new way to fuel my runs and rides. If it's good enough for @best_cees_scenario then it's worth a go I reckon!

Reflections on a long run...
Today's 22 miles felt much better than my 20 miles a few weeks ago. It might be that it was a good few degrees cooler today, it might be that my pack was a little lighter, maybe the hillier, far more picturesque route kept my… https://t.co/gok9kFBDwc
