Was nice not running in sweltering heat this week - who knew wind and rain felt so good.
31st half marathon of the challenge complete, 20 odd to go. If you haven’t already, please go and follow James’ Place to see the incredible work they do for men in suicidal crisis.
Big shoutout to everyone at UNW for last weeks run, raising over £3000 for James’ Place and in memory of Sam 🖤🤍

That one was special.
The UNW x Run for Sam Half Marathon in memory of Sam Johnson.
Today would have been Sam’s memorial tournament, so a big thank you to the guys at UNW for organising this half. To run with so many of Sam’s friends and colleagues was amazing and after injuring myself last Sunday (playing cricket btw, less said about that the better!), I couldn’t have done it without them.
Special thanks to , Cam Renwick , and
Onto 31 next week. LIKE. SHARE. DONATE. SUPPORT. 🖤🤍

Not sure what was harder, running in the heat or running past the packed pubs…
A lot of stops and meltdowns (literally) but happy it’s another one done 💪

Buzzing to have made it to halfway and what a run to do it - Budapest Night Half Marathon, although would have preferred not doing it in a heatwave 😅 Even better running with one of mine and Sam’s best mates! Tom Coyne
What a feeling knowing there’s more runs behind me than ahead of me now. 90% of the fundraising target hit already so thank you to everyone who has supported, and also thank you to anyone who has liked, shared and followed the journey. The more people who see this then the more people who know about James’ Place and that is the most important message from this challenge so please please like and share! 🖤🤍
27. The feeling of finishing something you never thought you would.

Nice running in what felt like a blazing inferno this morning 🥵
Easily the hottest of the year so far and one of the hardest but another one dusted thanks to a couple water stops (although the McDonald’s pull was strong) ☀️
Budapest Night Half Marathon next weekend which also coincides with number 27, the halfway point!!
Looking forward to knowing I have more running behind me than in front! 🏃♂️

First evening half in a while and only few days since the last one but with a trip to Benidorm on Thursday it’s now or never for this week…😬
Keep plodding along in the sun, wind and rain, or in this case all 3 🏃♂️

Happy Friday to all who celebrate!
Very windy run to work this morning and 24th half complete - not an early runner at all but no excuses getting in those 1’s and 2’s for James Place 🏃♂️
Ft. Quick stop at Tesco as forgot to brush my teeth…

Legs starting to feel heavy this past week and a few niggles so kept this one slower than previous weeks - head down and move forward 🏃♂️
Heat towards the end made it more difficult but can’t complain as it means the sun is shining ☀️
23 half marathons down, 31 to go!!

No race this weekend, but back to the grind along the coast 🏃♂️
Joined by Dan Goals again for Half Marathon #22! Doing it in that heat makes me miss the winter months with the rain, snow and frozen paths…😅
Thanks again to everyone who has LIKED. SHARED. DONATED. SUPPORTED. 🖤🤍
22. The sun is shinning everyday, you just may not be able to see it.
