Out for a very speedy 1.5km hilly run to clear my head. Nothing feels better than sweat today! Go run.

Embrace the challenge, for it is through the pain and perseverance of the marathon that your spirit soars, and your true strength shines.

Probably the toughest thing I have ever done - but I did it, I ran this town Dad, once more, I ran this town for you. A PB too....@dublinmarathon another incredible day thank you to every person involved

Trying to do a quick workout at home when you own dogs like....🙄

I went out for drinks instead of going to the gym tonight. Fair play to this chap who did both.

This really bothers me. If you have a gel while racing, make an attempt to throw it in a trash can. Don’t just drop it in the middle of the road. I get it stinks to hold a gel for a mile or two to a water stop but make an effort to get it to a trash can. It’s still littering.

"Fartleks" training involves an easy run that is followed by short but more intense sprints. The key is that you can choose to go at your own pace, depending upon your current fitness level.

In the greatest comeback in marathon running history, Kenenisa Bekele went from busted at 30km, to missing the world record by 2seconds. #BerlinMarathon #marathon #running

Marathon #9 for the year is complete! While I wasn't prepared for how much of the run was gravel/dirt, and I slowed a lot, I still had a good time! Came in at 4:28:34 #marathon #marathoner #marathonamonth #runrunrosie #stlukesviamarathon

20 mile long run in the bag! New Blog post up on Monday Running all about todays race. I'm really happy with how it went today, managed a steady consistent pace,and gave the full marathon kit a decent testing out! Bring on the taper! mondayrunning.com/2019/09/08/dra…

Novices in most training programs often run the same pace in their long runs as they will run in the race. For good reason: They don’t have a “race pace,” because they have not yet run the race. Experienced marathoners train better because they've been there before.

I like Twitter when I'm tired of Facebook and Instagram, I don't need to hear from friends & family all the time, you fun Twitter Peeps rule sometimes. 😊

Easiest thing in the world “Say what your going to do and go out and do it” Been a precise build up but today for the first time I dipped under 18 minutes for 5km, I managed 17:54 which is an all time PB of 29 seconds!! #instahealth #parkrun #active #runchat #essex

Parkrun number 99 done in 26:20 for a lovely new PB on my home course! If you are in the area, I’d love any Twitter runners to join me for my 100th parkrun celebration next Saturday at Walthamstow! (There will be cake 🧁 ) @parkrunUK #parkrun #loveparkrun
