Marathon plan went out the window this week due to illness 🤧 Wanted to get out for a short one today, even though I really didn’t feel like it. Hopefully back to full training this week 🤞🏻 #runningpunks #virtualrunclub

Just over ten miles in two hours for #runningpunks #virtualrunclub this week 🏃🏼 My Coopah plan is making me take things sloooow, which I think I needed after getting injured training for my last marathon 🐌

Forgot to post my #runningpunks #virtualrunclub run yesterday. Training plan de-load week, so long run was slightly shorter than usual. Ten weeks until Amsterdam! 🏃🏼

1. Some people align their morality with the law, and consider breaking it to be immoral, even when the law is oppressive.
I point them to my Dutch in-laws, who broke the law by sheltering a Jewish boy, and the Nazi soldiers and Dutch police, whose raids seeking criminals like them upheld the law.🧵

This wasn’t on my radar at all until a friend recommended it. Such a beautiful, well-executed idea. If you’re a gamer and you like cycling, you need to play it 🚲

A ninety minute, easy paced run for #runningpunks #virtualrunclub this week. Really enjoying training with Coopah. First week in months where I’ve felt fairly fit again 🏃🏼

A tenner for this week’s #runningpunks #virtualrunclub. Was meant to keep HR low but that went out the window with the heat. Now properly kicked off my Amsterdam marathon training 🇳🇱

If opposing genocide makes you a terrorist & funding one does not - I don't care for your definition.

If non-violent direct action to stop genocide makes you a terrorist - then I guess we all are.

Sure, Mandela was one, too.

Longest continuous pain-free run in months. Feel like I’m getting closer to being totally injury free but not pushing my luck 🏃🏼🤞🏻 #runningpunks #virtualrunclub
