It’s been a pretty rubbish couple of weeks, but featuring in an article for @womenshealthuk has been a real boost! I was delighted to chat to @bridiewilkins about the human toll of AI training and performance culture alongside the wonderful @lilliesfitness, @r_mcgregor and @dannyb_run_ton. It’s a really interesting, and balanced, take on the rise of AI training tools, social media and stress related injuries. On newsstands now and well worth a read!

The wall of fame is BACK!

Here at the Brig Boys we like to celebrate everyone, and the community that the Lakeland weekend brings together.

Over the weekend we both shared time on the course with so many people - @brigboyste being Ste-Man & @teddyhodgsonruns being SUPERTED.

Been through all the photos and tried to include everyone we know, but I know there’ll be some missed 🙈 after an hour people start blending into one, or you just look too good at the end and we don’t recognise you. 😉

If you shared the course with us, please feel free to comment if message and share your thoughts 😍

The weekend was epic, and it’s great that @mj_darbyshire make it easy for us to find his photo 😂 The same with @danbiggs77 who is our poster boy this year, as he did manage to finish his 5th one.

Big shout out to @nolimits.photos who will hopefully have no issues with me sharing the photos 😂 - but for once again, capturing some truly special moments that we’ll carry on for years to come. I don’t know if you truly know how much these photos mean, but they mean the world 😍

Well done everyone, and what a weekend!!

Anyone thought about next year yet? 😂

Much love - The Brig Boys.

Bad year to be a PB at Lakeland 50/100 👊 

This one was about heroes, and not just those incredible athletes hitting crazy fast times - but the unsung heroes; you know the ones… 

Those that stand with you at the start line with a knowing look, those that pick you up when you stumble on the trail, those that wait in rain or shine for hours on end in Ambleside, those that take your flasks and ask what you need, those that politely tell you to get up and get out of the checkpoint and those that celebrate your success as you run into Coniston and make you feel for that one moment that you’re a real life hero and have the power to do anything you set your mind to. 🦸

Coniston bubbles with positive energy during this weekend; and every year we see people running for their own reasons - raising for a cause, in the memory of a lost loved one, proving something to themselves, or simply because they can. 

Inspiration comes in all forms, and this year I saw a quiet, Stoic determination and huge heart from some of the most humble and fantastic people in the game, if you’re reading this you’re probably one of them ❤️

My own race started with a struggle but finished stronger with a 26 min PB and 11:16 on the clock - massive thanks to @danconnollycoaching who has given me belief in what I am capable of in such a short few months. 💪

As always - I feel privileged to share this special event with the most amazing and supportive family and friends, you continuously drive me to be the best I can be and I love you for it 🥰 @_francescawalker @dianewilletts me dad & Conster always in my corner ❤️

Until next time 🫡

Follow Friday ❤️
Mixing things up a little this week by shouting out some amazing runners from Twisted Running.
For me, it’s never just been about the gear. It’s about what the brand stands for.
Support. Encouragement. Giving back. Making running welcoming and proving that anyone can run, with access to great kit at an affordable price.
These are just a few of the people who live those values every day:
🏃‍♀️ @jess.b.coaching
🏃‍♀️ @run_channy_run
🏃‍♂️ @chubby_runs
🏃‍♂️ @andrerunz
🏃‍♀️ @running_sue_twisted
There are plenty more who deserve a mention too, including @kimmpepper, @rachael.walker.runs, @dannyb_run_ton , @thismummaruns_83 and @ch1ll20_runwithatwist.
If you’re looking for genuine, supportive runners to fill your feed, start here. ❤️
And if you don’t already follow @twistedrunning, give them a follow too. I know these accounts will inspire and support you just as much as they have me.

A few days ago I asked a simple question:

“Why do you follow me?”

Honestly, I expected answers about marathons, shoes and training.

Instead, the words that kept coming back were authenticity, family, encouragement and community.

That genuinely surprised me.

This will always be a running page. I love the races, the training, the shoes and chasing big goals.

But what means the most is knowing that people connect with the person behind the miles too.

A huge thank you to everyone who took the time to reply, especially @617_rnnr , @itssarah.elizabeth, @dannyb_runs, @run.phoenix.run and @jazzyyj90runs for allowing me to share your feedback.

The running continues.

The community grows.

And I’m grateful you’re all part of it ❤️
