Today I was in Southend for the second time in two weeks. It's not just the beaches that draw me to my nearest seaside town. When I'm not running, I like to do a bit of genealogy. I am also better at genealogy than I am at running. A bunch of my ancestors lived in … Continue reading Southend Classic 10k
You know what I'm like with a hill. As soon as my favourite running events company, RunThrough, announced they were putting on a race on the infamous zigzag road loved by cyclists in lycra on fancy bikes and featured in the Olympic cycle route, I was there. Box Hill, near Dorking, is a "site of … Continue reading Beat Box Hill 5km
The summer is almost over. I know this because for me, the weekly Wednesday night excursions to London parks to earn sun-shaped medals are over. There's one I can't get to next week, then the Wednesday nights go back to once a month in the Olympic Park until April. I actually feel quite bereft as … Continue reading RunThrough Chase The Sun Brixton

A month later I had a stress fracture. I completed my next half marathon (the … Continue reading I am in Barcelona
This was my third year taking part in the London Winter Run. This is a large, informal 10km through the streets of Central London which fills a glaring gap in the running calendar. I never understand why nearly all of the big runs are in summer, when hot weather is so hard to run in. … Continue reading London Winter Run 2018
2017 started very badly with my withdrawal from the Barcelona Half with two weeks to go. Having missed so much training through injury, I knew there was no way I could run it within the time limit, and I decided to cut my losses and defer until 2018. I write this post with six weeks … Continue reading 2017 in Running
