33 Half Marathons completed, more pleasant temperatures for running and kept the route flat. After the next one I'll be more than 2/3 complete for the challenge. Huzzah!

A wee bit late in uploading the video from Half Marathon 32 of 50. Did this run on Tuesday 22nd July after seeing Oasis on the 20th in Manchester. See how many blatant Oasis references you can spot.

A rainy run in Cumberland for number 31. This one was with my ultra-running brother-in-law, Duncan. We'd originally intended to do a run around the base of Skiddaw but the forecast of thunder and lightning meant a rethink and we did a road run between Cockermouth and Bassenthwaite instead. We did, indeed get a fair soaking. If you'd like to sponsor me, you can do so via my fundraising page at:

Very warm and energy-sapping today with what should have been a nice breeze but was like standing in front of a hairdryer on 11. Still, that's another one chalked off and now it's time for a week off before getting on with the final 21 x 21km.

Today was very warm and I was worried I wouldn't make the half marathon distance but ended up running a slow and steady 26.2km, which I'm calling a Kilomathon. I was joined by *my wife*, Fiona on her bike 🥰

Half Marathon 27 today, steady pace listening to a good book (Yellowface by Rebecca P Kuang) to make the miles go quickly. Also got some new Vimto flavoured gels 😋

Significant run ticks off the half way point. Sorry this is a week late being posted but Intgink everyone will agree it was worth the wait for my excellent joke.

Getting more excited as I approach the mid-way hump. This is Half Marathon number 24 and a month early. Woohoo.

So... ran a a bonus 1/2 Marathon on Tuesday evening for a little catchup and then an incredibly humid half on Saturday morning that I nearly gave up on. Really tough. Still that's 23 chalked off and I'm hoping to get to 25 by the end of May... watch this space!

A midweek run as I'm away this weekend. I didn't much feel like this one as I knew I'd be finishing after 8pm and was pretty low on energy but it actually went fine and it's good to chalk off another one.
