Gave up the nightclubs for the trails and roads! But not the music! House music all run long! 😎 Dad, happily married! Want to run an ultra! Love music and running hills on beautiful nature trails in Ireland! πŸŒ²β›°οΈπŸƒ

Beatiful day for the trails, give the hills a good runout to get in some anaerobic bursts! Tired legs but weekend of work to recover 😝 #running #trailrunning #keepshowingup

After nightshift run with 3 hours sleep! Could not let a mate down and really enjoyed the run, lovely sunny day too! Feel good now and ready for a nice chill watching some football! πŸ˜ƒ #running #runchat #keepshowingup

Morning run when I was meant to stay in bed for nightshift! Nice and easy in nice warm weather! Spring has finally arrived πŸ™ŒπŸ» #running #runchat #getitdone

Beautiful walk today with the gang, lovely and warm too! πŸ™ŒπŸ»

Finishing off a good week! Straight out for a lovely meal with the fam after! Happy Saturday πŸ˜ƒ #running #runchat #keepshowingup

New name from running clubber! Not good I know but who cares πŸ˜‚

Did a couple of loops today of a tough route. Loved it even if the wind was in my face πŸ˜… Legs are tired from those long hills! Eating ice cream chilling now! #running #runchat #keepshowingup

Worked in a tempo short one between work! Off early from work tomorrow to get in some road hills near my fav mountain! #running #runchat #getitdone

Back at it after last weeks sickness! Happy to get at it again! Missed my runners! Enjoyed that πŸ˜ƒ #keepshowingup #running #runchat

Throat infection, no running for a bit! Devastated πŸ˜• #running #runchat #trailrunning

Up at it early for social run with a friend, nice to catch up and active recovery run also. Happy Sunday, kids activities now followed by a cup final for my beloved Liverpool FC. YNWA #keepshowingup #running #runchat

Nightshifts over and weekend off! Another trail run in the sun, legs feeling the hill sprints today but worth it! Steak dinner with my love tonight πŸ˜‹! Happy weekend all! #running #trailrunning #keepshowingup #runchat

Breaking in new asics trabucos and trying to shift a chest cold was not fun today, but ya got to get through the tough days too! Got some nice elevation in this week so far! #running #trailrun #asics #keepshowingup #runchat

Super excited it’s that time of the year again for my new trail runner purchase. My third max to have and I have to say they are brillant in my opinion. Can’t wait to try them out! What runners are in your collection? #running #runchat #Asics #trailrunning

Spring is in the air at last πŸ˜ƒ. Warm air for an easy run with a bit of elevation, really enjoyed the sun and fresh air of the woods. Helped me shake this cough I have the last week! Woods really heal me when I’m not 100%! Good week of runs ahead with this weeks work shifts #running #strava #trails

Let’s get out there! #running

1km Interval evening in the dark! Asics Novablast 4 on the feet, good for the longer faster ones! Work now for weekend so bit of a rest running wise πŸ˜•! #getitdone #running #runchat #asics #strava

Wet wet wet but was itching to go as work took control last two days, joys of shift work nights! Quick one before kids pick up and sort of just paced quick around the hills, enjoyed the grind πŸ˜…! #keepshowingup #running #trailtun #runchat #fit-forties

Little bit of interval kms in the woods today to round off a good week, hope to keep it consistent now around life/work! Spring is in the air at last πŸ˜ƒ #keepshowingup #running #runchat

Rest days are just as important for runners as training. Muscles need time to repair, reducing the risk of injury. Overtraining can lead to exhaustion, slower times and even stress fractures. Rest days help the body recover, making runners stronger. www.runspirited.com/single-post/...

Some good tips on cooling down after a run. runningmagazine.ca/sections/tra...

Monday Tuesday runs! Easy Monday with Tuesday segment threshold 2.5km x 2! Looking forward to get back to trails the weekend. #running #runchat #getitdone

Last two days runs before nights weekend of work! Enjoyed getting back to my woods with some warmer air about! Got some hill sprints in too! Storm brewing this weekend so hope I’ll get one more in at some stage! Happy weekend all! #running

After the weekend race and working the last two days it was great to stretch the legs a bit in the heavy rain! Nike gore tex jacket is unreal and tunes of the weekend kept me going! Back at it this week before weekend of work! #running #keepshowingup #runchat #goretex #justdoit

Seems like Tempo runs might be your best friend to increase your lactate threshold. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gPt...

First official half marathon race, hilly course on a cold and damp day! Stuck to my plan and had fuel in the tank to get me home, really enjoyed it, went better than I thought after a bad nights sleep! Not too bad for an auld fella πŸ˜‚πŸ€˜πŸΌ #running #halfmarathon #runchat #strava

Defo 🀣

Easy run after yesterday’s one! Few tunes and kept the heart rate down and got the blood flowing into the legs. Feel good now after, off to the cinema with the mrs for some popcorn 🍿😜 #running #runchat #getitdone #trainingruns

Plyometrics will help you score a personal best and keep you bullet-proof. runningmagazine.ca/sections/tra...

After 36 hr weekend of work with no runs, had to shake the cobwebs, half marathon next week and was a bit worried I would not be able to keep a pace, so built up nice and steady and pushed a bit harder halfway in! Gives me a bit of confidence I will get through it! #running #runchat #keepshowingup

Yesterday and todays runs! Feeling stronger at last, fitness is getting better, now into weekend of work and a wee rest of the legs! Keep showing up! #run #runnning #runchat #getitdone

January running. #keepshowingup

Tempo run in the wind, felt like it moved against me non stop! Felt strong today, back in a good rhythm of running again getting the weekly kms up! Won’t be too worried about my half marathon coming up 😬! #running #runchat #keepshowingup #strava #housemusic

Lovely trail run in the sun, aftermath of the big storm has my lovely local wood damaged! It was like the tree hurdles but really enjoyable! #running #runchat #getitdone #trailrun

Fridays long run, had no gels only salt chews and felt it at 25km, had to fuel at garage with some sugar electrolytes and got home sound! Slept well last night 😴! #keepshowingup #running #runchat #stravarunning

Long run Friday? How many km will I do? #running

Get the run in while the sons training, shake off the weekend of nights at work! New week so keep showing up! 😜 #running #strava #getitdone #runchat
