My video from @TheSpineRace Summer Challenger North 2023 is now online. 160 miles of sleep deprived fun and adventure on the Pennine Way youtu.be/RnJuixy7Z0g

Winter 2026 @TheSpineRace. Another great week out building start/finish lines, delivering pre-race briefings, starting races and getting to witness people do extraordinary things. Now for the post race admin and clean-up, wish me luck. Countdown to the Arctic Spine in 2 weeks

I'll just casually leave this here 😀 bsky.app/profile/deanre…

@nuddypants Great to see you this weekend 👍

The good thing about tagging along with previous race finishers is that they point out all the places where there are potential nap and water refill stops.

@dribelad Good times, would love to be walking the PW now. Went to Dufton the other day actually, I think Poppy wanted to go in the pub

OTD 5 years ago, winding up @dean_read before meeting him on his Pennine Way trek. 😁

@MattyPlasterer The Tian Shan mountains in Kyrgyzstan are unreal.

@dean_read @UltimateUpdates @VisitKarakol Wow 😮 just wow 😮

The climb from Karakol Valley over to Altyn-Arashan via Lake Ala-Kul in Kyrgyzstan 🇰🇬 No further words needed 😍

@dribelad @TheSpineRace @stef_runs_sheff Thanks Dale 👍😎

@dean_read @TheSpineRace @stef_runs_sheff Congratulations to you all 😁👍

She said yes.... The village green at Kirk Yetholm, the end of the Pennine Way, the finish line of @TheSpineRace . I couldn’t think of a more fitting venue to pop the question, as the PW and the Spine have been a big part of our lives in the past few years. @stef_runs_sheff

@nbriggs2002 The family are doing really well thanks, I’m going to use my right to remain silent about the sleep part 😂😂

@dean_read Very jealous, we are too far south. Hope the family is well and you're getting plenty of sleep.
