Surgical correction of angular limb deformity in a young dog. Asynchronous injury to the growth plates of the bones results in an angular forelimb, causing joint pain and limb dysfunction if left uncorrected. (See thread for post-op images)

Here’s a beautiful way to pay it forward with the gift of reading…. a small donation will put an adventure book in the hands of primary schools in the UK 👇👇
14 Jul 2023
Which gave me the idea that if you'd also like to donate some money so that we can send more books to UK primary schools, you can do that too.
Use PayPal to send £4 per book to microadventures@alastairhumphreys.com
Deadline 20 July.
Thank you.

Saw my race pic from last weekend’s trail run and thought, I look like death!
Then I remembered I’d spent the night in the ER with kidney stones, was running on zero sleep and by this point in the race, the lovely pain meds from the hospital had worn off and I wasn’t feeling especially spiffy.
I think this is probably my favorite race pic ever!!! It reminds me we can do hard things! Thanks to my friend, Donna for the terrific pic!!!🥰

Setting the goal to finish an ultra is as inspiring as it is reasonable.
But, first-timers shouldn’t enter the arena with the belief that this is a one-and-done proposition. Running coach Ian Torrence has some advice for those who are new to ultras:irunfar.com/newbies-guide-to…

It had a been a long block of shooting. Then this scene happened. @sharjilrasool rolled in with some beatboxing and nearly killed @trukimmy @StandUpAli @rakheecola and I from laughter. Seriously. It broke us. Here’s a super cut of the bloopers from this scene! #runtheburbs 😂😂😂

GREAT NEWS!🌊💙
The UN has finalised the High Seas Treaty, which will protect marine life beyond national jurisdiction.
This is a huge step forward for shark & ray conservation, as these species often migrate through areas that are currently unprotected.

So true 👇 A mindset of “when they go left, I go right” is not, in fact, an autonomous mind

There are two ways to be dictated by fads.
The first way: buy or endorse things just because it’s “hot” and “now trending.”
The second way: hate or belittle things just because it’s “hot” and “now trending.”
Same spirit. Different manifestation.
