The Art of Joy Riding : @leblanq.tour Ibiza 2026
•

Thank you for having me and my friend @cook.train.tri
•
•
Also great to see @whatwouldemdo
•
•
I enjoyed the festival a lot but also very nervous. I have learnt a lot from fellow riders and cycle leaders over the past 3 days. Shame today was a total washout with the dramatic weather!
•
•
Thank you @leblanq.tour for the amazing experience.
•
•
I will definitely do more joy riding for sure!

Pacing at @royalparkshalf
•
•
It was a lovely day today! Sunny and gorgeous day for running!
•
•
Pacing sub 2 hours but went into the wrong wave! So had to scramble to the wave in front! Some runners followed me.
•
•
Pretty much even split and was talking to a few runners throughout the course but I don’t know when I lost a few of them! A bit sad but in the end 2 was with me and I love to get their thanks. Pacing is such a great thing to do to give back to the runners.
•
•
The course is not that simple as there are quite a lot of undulating up and down. And I thought it’s flat!
•
•
After the event I continued running another 9k and glad 30k is in the bag now! But my body is screaming at me because it’s aching a lot!
•
•
Poor glute! Poor old body!
•
•
Thank you to all the volunteers and Marshalls for making this event possible!

3 medals in 2 days! 2 races in 2 countries in 2 days.
*
*
No agenda for this race. Just wanna go out and see what I can do!
*
*
Once started I knew this is going to be a tough one, I know my body is tired! The swims yesterday plus all the travels back and forth! People say I am crazy, I am indeed!
*
*
Should have started a wave later, hate having everybody overtaking me 😅
*
*
Slowed down from 8km onwards and picked up a little last 4k. The last km was a long straight line…..never seems to see the finish line lol.
*
*
Picked up the pace a little but not much left in the tank!
*
*
Really happy that I did this! My second Copenhagen half and this year also serves as the World Road Running Championship!
*
*
Good to catch up with @ganning4it @monicbrooks and @krittchoge
*
*
Wanted stay longer in the event village but the weather changed completely with rain, wind and cold…. Not once but twice!
*
*
I am gonna rest and eat! That’s my plan!
*
*
What an amazing race! Loved it! Please sign up the ballot if you wanna have a chance to do this!

My 2nd @swimserpentine
•
•
I wanted to all 3 distances but not possible due to time constraint!
•
•
Really had a blast with opening the event with the half mile then quickly ran back to do the 1 mile.
•
•
Water was clean and fresh, great crowd, amazing atmosphere!
•
•
We have 50 @swimmerboltsuk competing the event today! Absolutely loved how our humble community has grown. Thank you to @prabinatalary for being the mother to all of us.
•
•
We also have 5 of us from @runhighercollective swimming today! Well done to @hazelkcchan @anson.is.trying @daichi62 and @stefanosrunning also completed the London Classics!
•
•
We love swimmers from@different stages of their journeys…. Some doing this for the first time to some doing multiple distances! It’s all about self believe and trusting your training. Don’t fear, but embrace. Water is your friend and not your enemy.
•
•
Sorry had to dash off quickly as I have another mission to accomplish! @wrrccopenhagen26 half marathon tomorrow morning!
•
•
What Swim Serpentine event(s) should I do next year?
•
•
Half/1/2 mile trifecta or Super Six?

Last minute call for 01:50 pacing duty at the @richmondrunfest Richmond Half Marathon
*
*
I knew it will be tough as I did the @dock2docklondon 10k swim yesterday!
*
*
Did all I can to make sure my body can keep up! Including lots of ibuprofen gel in aching areas!
*
*
End up taking uber from train station to the start as no trains were running with a few other runners waiting also!
*
*
Really like the organisation of the event. Everything was smooth and easy.
*
*
Had a great time pacing today! Also a revenge as I missed the pacing mark at @officialbighalf . I want to say job done!
*
*
Most of the runners were with me for white a while then most of them dropped off! Just 2 left until the end! One lady needed medical attention post race. Hope she recovers soon
*
*
Love the medal and the t shirt!
*
*
Love to run and/or pace again at this event!
*
*
Thank you @stoxenergy for this lovely running compression socks!
*
*
It’s ultimate rest time for the next few days!
