Wrapping up Day 2 of the #SeineRiverRun! 🏃🏼‍♀️ We watched the river grow, ran through forests and farms, past poppy fields and castles, along overgrown footpaths and ancient bridges. I am consistently amazed by the beauty of this region. Still close to the source and relatively untouched by humans, nature thrives and teems with life. 💧💙🌿

Rivers are our lifelines! Today, @Minaguli begins a run the length of France’s Seine River pre- #ParisOlympics to highlight river restoration efforts. As countries gather in Paris, it's a message to restore all rivers. #WorldEnvironmentDay #GlobalRunningDay

2. I’ve been working too hard. My work is a cause rather than just a job, but between work, river keeping, talks, articles etc. I’ve taken on too much. I have a peptic ulcer and whatever this was. Both are a warning. Not yet sure what but I’ll have to dial something back.

Strange week this week. Learned a few things about myself, the ambulance service, and the NHS… 🧵
