At the moment I seem to be getting a lot of cyclists with no lights and wearing dark clothing. Like I ride fast, I have powerful bike lights and I only can see them at the last minute and this is on the shared cycle paths

It's a wet and stormy Saturday so.....I've just joined the UK Trail Running Association 😅😳
I think this is my formal way of saying I'm back in running....but it's gonna be trails. I won't be buying Runner's World anytime soon.

I set up today (+ car park marshal/barcode scanner) @ 1 of the 6 NE Wales parkruns (usually 7 - venue unavailable for 1). Total attendance for 6 events was 897 w/ 138 volunteers versus total attendance last week for 7 events at 850 (rained). Same week in ‘24 for 6 events was 691. #running #parkrun

Lessons learned from my first 50mi Ultra

1. Don’t follow people - navigate yourself

2. On self contained events - pack enough gel for longer than you plan on running

3. If you think you might need that layer, don’t worry about weight

4. A warm hat might save your race
