Proud …. The word of the day for me on humpday. Why???? Proud that I showed the same energy when being injured than I do when training. Proud of the way I’ve been dedicated to my rehab since being injured with the experts @goperform Proud of the way I adapted to GYM life 🏋️♂️ Proud that I faced the music and stopped running when pain become to much. Proud that I’m now returning to running in a stronger shape than I left. Proud that this morning i ran my 1st SPEED session with 0 Pain 💃🏼 Proud that I still had speed in my legs 🦵🏽 this morning 🚀 Happy to be back on my 1k loop 🔁 pounding the pavements waking up the neighbourhood 🤪 Sometimes you have to sit back and be proud of YOU. today I do just that 👊🏽 @prozis @gungho_co @newbalancerunning #ukrunchat #wemove #returntofitness #rebuildthetemple #runnersofinstagram #community #driventosucceed
Nice easy 3 miles. Doing these shorter runs is fun and doesn’t take up too much time… sure has me wondering why we do marathons!! 🤷♂️😂 I hope you’re having an ace week! 🏃♀️🏃♂️🙌
It’s race month! How is the taper going? Ultramaranoia started yet? #moraywayultras #ultrarunning #ultrarunner #ukrunchat #runningmotivation #runningcommunity #morayway
Hump day done ✅️ I did an easier session today after double training yesterday and I'm still feeling fine 😊my injury hasn't come back which is surprising to say I've hammered my body for the last 4 days 💪 #run #runner #runchat #runchatuk #WorkoutGoals #workout #gym #gymtraining #gymtime #trainhard #motivation #humpday #instarunner #igfitness #fit #fitfam #shittofit #obesetobeast #loverunning #ukrunchat #UKRunning #derbyshirerunning #keepfit #bodyfitness #bodypositivity #hokafans #distancerunner #training
👋 I'm Paul and I'm a runner. This photo was taken a few years back after a trail race in Greenock and it sums up how I feel about getting back into that shape... but I am determined to get there. I took on Manchester Marathon in 2021 having never officially run further than 10k (still haven't completed an official half marathon race) and was in the shape of my life. Fast forward three years and I have put a lot of weight back on but this isn't a weight loss journey, it is to get back to race fitness, the rest will come. My aims for 2024 and for this page: be accountable to myself and remain positive. We have recently welcomed a new baby into the world and previously I had all the time in the world to train, the money to spend on super shoes and good gear, the transition into running dad will be interesting. I will post goals later this week but for now, welcome along and I hope you can take some inspiration from me going from overweight and unfit to fit, fast and marathon ready. #run #runner #running #runningmotivation #marathon #marathontraining #manchester #manchestermarathon #fitness #ukrunchat #ukrun #ukrunners #ukrunningcommunity #scotland #scottish #scottishrunning

A little April Recap - a month of highs and lows. It’s fair to say that often instagram is just a highlight reel, pitching a vision of continued success and happiness. When the reality is that likely we all have low points. Think you need to acknowledge the lows to appreciate the highs. April, you were an absolute rollercoaster. 1. Hitting trails in Vancouver 🇨🇦 2. Sharing miles with friends at @bigmoose.charity UltraFunRun in Cardiff 🏴 3. Behind the lens in London for @topflightraces 4. Finding new coffee shops to work from. 5. Still clinging to Italian life. 6. Leaving London… 😢 How the f’k is it May already?!
I think this is possibly my highest ever monthly mileage, very pleased! Hoping for a 200 mile month for May! Broken my half marathon and marathon PB this month, got my first 50 mile event in May 🙂
Finally the sun made an appearance for a club night ! Beautiful evening yesterday on the trails for our runners before the club AGM! Fancy joining us next week? 7pm @ The George Inn, Upper Denby. HD8 8UE. 📸 - @running_fuelled_by_tea #DDAC #denbydale #Huddersfield #instarunners #running #runnersofinstagram #ukrunchat #Yorkshire #runclub #local #runners #trailrunning
Well, this wasn’t on the plan. Not that I currently have on anyway, but that beside the point. With my first run after 7 weeks on Monday, and a cardio session at the gym yesterday, I wasn’t expecting much from this. In fact there were a lot of Easter eggs! Time wise I was only 15secs slower for 5k. Which wasn’t a surprise considering what I’ve done the last two days. But, yet again I negative split kms 3, 4, & 5! Second time in a row. Not that is a surprise. Quite pleased with that to be honest. • • #trainingisneverending #runshow #runshowabassador #runthroughuk #ukrunning #running #ukrunchat #ukrunners #farlekfamily #whatthefartlek #whatthefartlekpodcast #sweatandtears #lonelygoatrc #lonelygoatrunningclub #englandathletics #halfmarathoner #marathonrunner #runnersofinstagram #runnersofinsta
April Recap🌦️ 367k 🏃♂️ Final week managed to get to 100k 🗓️ Training now in place for @scilly60 so my arse has been booted into gear. 🎖️ A 5k PB at Odd Down as part of the @bristoltrackclub night. And a new #parkrun PB as well. A stack of @strava segment PBs, and a couple of new local legends as well. #run #ukrunner #ukrunchat #trailrunning
Beautiful morning to get up and have a run before work. Legs took a while to get going.. I didn't know where I was going, and I ended up picking an incliney route.. 🙄🤨 🏃♀️➡️🏃♀️➡️ My legs are feeling a bit better today, so hopefully, I can get back to feeling like I can run again rather than feeling clunky! 😂 🏃♀️➡️🏃♀️➡️ I was hoping to join the hamwic speed sessions again tonight, but the teen has an appointment. Probably just as well to wait another week as I don't think they have any speed in them! 🫢 #wednesdaymiles #miles #4miles #sunnymiles #motivation #morningrun #startthedayright #ifitsnotonstravaitdidnthappen #womanrunner #instarun # #runningprogress #runnerscommunity #runningmakesmehappy #runninglifestyle #runningfamily #runninginspiration #runningwoman #run #runhappy #runner #ukrunchat #ukrunning #instarun
Another month done. Month started with me testing my foot after an injury. Pleased that it had healed, and I was slowly able to get back up to purposeful training. The focus has mainly been on hills. And lots of them. Those Lakeland Fells won't run themselves.

RUN Putting some running in to my training plan on @humango_ai - so starting easy with a short session of 4 x 20sec strides, with 2mins easy between. Here's to getting stronger in mind and body 💪 #teamhuckson #humango #aicoaching #run #running #ukrunchat #roadslikethese #wahooligan #fuelbetter #seebetter #getyourkittogether #ukrunning #runningman #runnersofinstagram #cyclinglife #cyclist #trainingtuesday
The usual confidence yo-yo at track last night BUT I LOVED it! . Such a confidence boost after an unintended rest day yesterday . Session was 2x8 min efforts (2 min recovery and 4 mins after 16), 8x1 min (45 sec recovery and 2 mins after 4). . Love the longer efforts as it’s an opportunity to be consistent and that’s exactly what I did. . I covered just under 1.3 miles in the 8 mins hitting an average pace or 6:10 min miles. It felt comfortable and I felt strong 💪🏻(pic3). . Then the 1 mins hit and I averaged 5:30min/mls with a last effort at 5:07 min miles (pic4). So overall, really pleased. . It’s good to know when you feel tired, drained, lost or just a little off your game to know I can still hit these speeds. . Now to maintain it in a race 😜 . Great effort from all my @knowsleyharriersac club mates last night. Fabulous efforts by all at a windy but very mild sticky track. . Of course it ended with a @vigour8official shower to freshen me up 💛(pic5). . Onto the next one….. . #Runnersofinstagram #runner #runningmotivation #runningman #runningcommunity #motivation #inspiration #inpsire #dailyinspiration #fitness #fitnessmotivation #fitnessjourney #cardio #thismancan #giveityourall #yougotthis #trustinyourself #winner #ukrunningcommunity #ukrunchat #clubtraining #track #tracksession #speedwork
Hey @londonmarathon runners! 👋 How's your recovery going so far? From next week, you can probably start to add a bit more structure back into your training routine. Here's what you should focus on: 1️⃣ Longer weekend run: Lace up those shoes and get out there for a slightly longer weekend run - around 75-80 minutes at a nice, easy conversational pace. This will help you maintain that endurance base and set strong foundations without overdoing it. 🏃♀️ 2️⃣ Quality training sessions: If you're feeling good the it might be time to mix things up a bit! Start incorporating some interval and threshold running sessions back into your routine. This will help you build up that speed and strength again. 💪 3️⃣ Core strength and flexibility: Whilst your overall training volume should still be lower than usual, make sure you prioritise core strength and flexibility work. Make it part of your regular training routine so you can stick to it even as your training volume increases. 🏋️♂️🧘♂️ 4️⃣ Slowly but surely: Your focus should be on gradually increasing volume and intensity. 📈 Build up the volume slowly, and don't be discouraged if it takes you longer than you expected to get back to your regular running routine. Remember, recovery is just as important as the training itself. 🥇👏 Be patient and take your time, rushing back to fitness will only increase the risk of overtraining and injury. If you listen to your body and take it easy you'll be back to your regular running routine in no time! Who's ready to get training again? Have you set yourself a new target? Let me know in the comments below! 👇 #londonmarathon #marathon #halfmarathon #10k #running #runner #coaching #ukrunchat #PUREndurance

Wednesday training run. Enjoyed todays run and pushing to keep the target times. Still learning how my watch tells me my averages and that there’s a slight delay so it would say too or too slow after I corrected and would be completely wrong. Need to remember it’s on a delay. But good training nevertheless. Todays plan: On Off Ks with Runna ✅ 0.6mi warm up at a conversational pace Repeat the following 3x: -——— 0.6mi at 10:35/mi 0.6mi at 9:40/mi -——— 0.3mi cool down at a conversational pace Marathon Plan (Week 1/16) #strongerthanmyexcuses #mrmikesmarathonjourney #wearerunthings #runthings #RunHappyNation #CelebrateYou #therunningcommunity @goneforarun #runningmakesmehappy #runHappy #runninginspiration #runmore #runnerslife #parkrunhappy #instarunners #ukrunners #parkrun #parkrunuk #runner #runnersofinstagram #huntingdonparkrun #runner #running #ukrunning #ukrunchat #loveparkrun #cambridgeshire
Sheldon’s Journey to London Marathon 🇬🇧 I began my running journey with TrackEast at the beginning of the year. One of the main reasons I chose this group was because it is conveniently located within walking distance from my home and my local park run. Initially, I was a little apprehensive about joining, as I thought it would be dominated by elite athletes. However, during my first session, I was pleasantly surprised to be placed in a group that focused on interval sessions, tailored to accommodate my pace. This made me feel extremely welcomed and supported. It is important to note that TrackEast embraces runners of all abilities, so there is no need to feel intimidated when attending a track session at Mile End. Thanks to Emancipated Run Crew, I had the opportunity to participate in the London Marathon. It was my second time running this race, and I couldn’t have been happier. Unlike my first attempt, where I hit a wall before reaching Canary Wharf, this time I felt incredibly fresh and full of energy at that point. My goal for this race was to simply enjoy myself and not focus on time, while also showing appreciation to all the supporters who came out to cheer us on. I can confidently say that I had a fantastic and enjoyable day from start to finish. == Congratulations Sheldon, and we look forward to seeing you back down at the track soon. Everyone is welcome to join us on Thursdays at the Oval Office. Click link in bio for details. 🔗 🎥 @simonrphoto #trackeast #runningcommunity #ovaloffice #ukrunchat #marathonmajors #marathontraining

Amazing work from my client Sarah on completing her first ever marathon! The final week through Sarah's taper was all around testing all the methods of the fuelling from what she was practising on the weekend and replicating this into a full week. Alongside mobility and taper exercises to help Sarah recover we got her fuelled well and feeling strong for the start line. This is just another win from all the other PBs she’s hit over this past year of working with me! Now she is on her way to building up for an ultra! Watch this space!

CREW Track tuesdays are definitely back in full swing with this turn out @thewolfpackrc session tonight. A decent session with 90secs of 5k pace before 45secs of even faster pace. Found the session pretty comfortable and as though there was more to give. The heart rate certainly supported this theory with only 5 mins of the session in “threshold”. Current thoughts are…. perhaps some races need booking! #running #runnersofinstagram #runningginger #runningman #ukrunchat #runningmotivation #runnerscommunity #runday #runninginspiration #accountantswhorun #run #time2run #IGRunners #instarunners #runhappy #instarun #fitness #runner #wellbeing #runnerslife #runnersofinsta #nohumanislimited #runtoinspire #thewolfpack #runninggoals #thewolfpackeffect #halfmarathontraining #sub3marathoner #projectsub120 #projectsub80
Well, the last April run wasn't the greatest, at least according to the metrics. Still, was enjoyable! Bit of summer feel with the higher temperature. Had some fun exploring the area around the usual park 😁 April was low on volume, but we'll get there... #running #ukrunchat #strava #april2024
Tough intervals session - and most of it my fault 😅 . Still battling a tough project at work so another late night finish was had - sadly this messed up the timings of my meals today as I had a mid afternoon snack ready for this session but by the time I got out that was long gone 😅 . Started to feel 'empty' and light headed in the first interval so snacked on a @kendalmintco mint cake bar, then interval two was all struggle, but by lap three that glorious energy kicked in and I saw my best pace of the night 😅🤣 I just should have eaten it before setting off 🤣🤣😬 . Don't forget you can get 10% off your own wonder bars through the link in my bio 😉
Surprised you can see where my top ends and my skin starts after that workout! 4 sets of 5 x 1 min at 5k pace and 1 min jog recovery, with 3 minutes between sets. A very warm day and everyone was out in the Meadows which I think helped me keep going in that last tough set! Took a while to settle into a more consistent pace but so glad to get it done. Big week of running with a tempo on Thursday I’m a little nervous for! But did my first PT session today too and loved it - how cool are sled pushes? Not letting my hard-earned cardio fitness get let down by my lazy glutes and weak calves in the last few miles. A happy runner today! #running #runner #runnersofinstagram #instarunner #thismumruns #motherrunner #mumswhorun #runhappy #ihavearunnersbody #runchat #runnerscommunity #womenrunners #irunthisbody #runlikeagirl #runthrough #runthroughuk #ukrunchat #averagerunner #therunninghub #therunninghubcommunity #strongerfitterfaster #intervals #speedsession #halfmarathontraining

Tapering and post-marathon recovery hasn't been kind to my monthly mileage total. Less than half of last month's mileage. 🫠 But what a month! An awesome family trip to Disneyland Paris, my daughter came down with a bad case of chickenpox the day we got home, and then a week later I ran a marathon PB. The sub-3:30 I've wanted for 5 years at London.

April you have been consistent 💫 30 days running = 140 miles done ✔️ most of my running this month has been solo, I’ve still enjoyed though! I just put my trainers on and get out the door & try not to think about it, if you think about it to long, it isn’t going to happen! 4 parkruns have also been consistent, getting closer to my parkrun pb, considering I’ve run everyday for the last 302 days is pretty awesome I’d say, very happy indeed 🤩 3 at Swansea bay 28:17, 28:53, 28:01, I was 7 seconds away from my parkrun PB 🥴 1 at Cycle Route 43 ystalyfera 28:24 💫 Looking forward to what’s in store for May 🫶🏼 #visorclub #happystride #5amrunclub #mkambassador #run #runner #runswansea #ukrunchat #runningmakesmehappy #beyourbest #runningbuddies #HeroInYou #runr #imrunningbear #badassmotherrunner #parkrun #loveparkrun #runningbear #cssc
Oh Hi, blue sky ☀️ The day that temperatures hit double digits for what feels like the first day of the year… a sign of what is to come?? 😂 😂 Is it just me who gets an instant mood boost on a sunny evening?? A lovely run around Eccup Reservoir on my way home from work tonight, just what was needed after a busy day cooked up inside 🤪. Only downside to the warmth was how many flies I managed to inhale 🪰. Legs felt a little heavy tonight after a tough spin class on Sunday and a couple of runs last week, but they kept going with the help of some beats 🎵.

April Highlights ✨ By far the best month of the year so far after 7 weeks of being on the bench cross training 🥱. I’ve slowly built up my mileage to finish the month on 155.82 miles 😅, which although is only half of my usual mileage, I’m just grateful to be back out clipping away pain free, and my strava graph not flatlining again! I was nervous to do my first “proper” (6x1M) sesh today, but it actually felt super smooth (minus the two headwind miles 🙃) to be running 6:10/M again! I’m sure the tailwind helped but I’ll take the small wins for now! I never thought I’d enjoy something more than running 😅 but the real highlight of the month has been bringing Enzo home 🩵 and I cannot wait for all the miles we will get to run together 😌, but for now I’d like him to stop growing 🥹 #runningcommunity #ukrunchat #runners #runninggirl #comeback #puppiesofinstagram

A great evening out with the gang. Good to be out with these boys on a warm sunny evening for our TNC run. Slight detour taken on route to try and avoid the annoying flies around the lake but other than that all good and a great pace done while chatting. A good chance to catch up with everyone and just under 8 miles done to kickstart the week.

Progress is definitely not linear. That 4:07 broke me mentally and physically and I’m glad I’ve put that awful race behind me 🙌 as I wondered if I’d ever get sub 4 again. Hindsight is a wonderful thing, and I’ve looked back at 2022 race many times wondering why I was even on the start line. Having a f**k it attitude and flying through the first few miles is never really going to bode well in a marathon. A shambles. I’ve changed my training a bit since then, had a break from marathons, and am constantly learning what works for me and how to balance it all. The difference this time? Shoes obvs😆…jokes. They clearly helped but I stood on that London start line actually believing I could PB and believing I could hold the pace I needed to for at least a good chunk of the race. Of course there were doubts, that 4:07 haunting me, but I was determined to get this one right in terms of pacing and fueling. I’m obviously buzzing with a PB, but I’m starting to believe I can get faster, which is a bizarre feeling, and I’m excited for what lies ahead 💪 #running #ukrunners #runnersofinstragram #instarunners #runnergirl #rungirlrun #runningmotivation #runningcommunity #marathontraining #manchestermarathon #ukrunchat #runningismytherapy #womensrunninguk #thisgirlcan #instarunners #stravarunning #thismumruns #womensrunning #londonmarathon
I wanted to do a loosener today ahead of the @great_run #birmingham10k but I think the #rockyivsoundtrack helped lol. First #5k under 30 minutes for a while. Little boost which goes a long way. #ukrun #ukrunners #ukrunchat #runspiration

Tonight club members along with friends and family of the late Tony Audsley presented a cheque for £4300 to @teampspa. This money was raised from last year’s Tony Audsley Flat Cap 5 race and was only possible thanks to everyone that entered the race. The good news continues as entries for this year’s race will open on Saturday. Keep your eyes peeled for the entry link later this week. 🔴⚫️🟡 #run #running #runner #runnersofinstagram #trailrun #Yorkshire #YorkshireRunners #trailrunning #instarun #ultrarunning #instarunners #ukrunchat #runnerscommunity #runhappy #TeamDRR #DewsburyRoadRunners #TAFC5 #TAFC52023 #Charity #Donation
I completed a distance of 101.2km (62.88 miles) for April. This was one of my biggest totals this year due to half marathon training and the actual half marathon itself. I’m cutting back a little on the really long distances for a little while and want to try to start running just for running without specific distance or pace goals. #emmaruns2024 #run #running #runnergirl #thisgirlcan #thisgirlcanrun #runnersofinstagram #runnerslife #womensrunning #runnersworld #runlikeagirl #ukrunchat #chislehurstlife #igerschislehurst #igerskent #2024annualdistancechallenge #1000km2024challenge #500miles2024challenge #500km2024challenge #landmarksandbeyond #project366_2024 #366emmaclark2024

London marathon recap pt.3 - The elastic band feeling has gone, I’m at the business end of the race and the minutes per mile are slipping. It’s the part of the race I was looking forward to, but I knew it was going to really hurt. My thighs were burning and feet were bleeding (not that I could feel them). My main takeaway, consistency is key, just keep turning up. One of the Abbot 6 ticked off, where’s next? @rasendurance #londonmarathon #weruntogether #ukrunchat
