When the ice and frost comes, head for the parkrun that's on grass. Thanks to Wetherby parkrun, one of a handful on in Leeds today. Three pleasant but chilly laps around the Ings. ❄️

An incredible start to the day at Crosby parkrun on Saturday. 😍
With Anthony Gormley Another Place installation of 100 iron men as the backdrop - the course is a mixture of sand, grass and concrete.
A new favourite parkrun course.

The best way to start Boxing Day - the Chevin Chase. 7 miles of climbing and mud over Otley Chevin and a great descent to the finish. 1:07:02 - second best of four attempts on the course. Pleased with that!

Florence Marathon - 4:20:44
An amazing route and race. Went with low expectations on time and certainly exceeded them. Flat, interesting and fast course. Will definitely be back!

Another shot at the marathon and a return to Manchester. A brilliant day out, epic crowds and managed to deliver on my target time.
Super happy with 4:52:32. Let this be the one that kickstarts those autumn goals!

A trip to the oldest cinema in Leeds (Cottage Road, 1912) to see one of the best films of the year The Brutalist. Remarkable performances, photography, design, scoring and direction. Highly deserving of the awards attention it’s been receiving.
