A long run around Richmond Park training for the RTTK 50k, it felt tough today, I don't know if I was in the pain cave but definitely the pain veranda. #yourweekendruns

Rose City Band helping me get round a hot 13 miles at Richmond Park. I wish I was an early morning run kind of person on warm days like these. @RunComPod

Hi @RunComPod people, does anyone have advice on run-walk-run strategies for a marathon? I'm signed up for the Virtual London marathon and currently my long run is only HM distance, I'm wondering what ratio of run/walking is feasible. Thanks.

A little faster at Osterley parkrun this week, 5th in age category. I think I would have gone faster but Gong - Tried so hard, came on my playlist for the last km which was slightly demotivating. @RunComPod #weekendruns

Deep in @RunComPod territory, first time running around Hampstead Heath and Parliament Hill. Did a very twisty-turny route with my head in my map app a lot the time but Hampstead Heath is lovely.

Just 16% of NHS staff can access a hot food service when working a 12-hour night shift
We don’t think that’s good enough, so we’re campaigning to change it
Please share this if you're with us and help make a difference

It was all going so well 😅, First longish run back after 9 days out with food poisoning and some sort of virus. Felt tough, my engine is shot, hopefully will recover in time for Brighton Marathon 🤞🙂🤞 @RunComPod

We have a right to roam on just 8% of English land, while 92% is off limits
Access to nature is vital for health & wellbeing, so I’ve tabled an Early Day Motion urging the Govt to extend right to roam
Please tweet or email your MP and tell them to sign!

Working on Sunday so it was long run Friday today. Richmond park as lovely as always. @RunComPod before the run for motivation then #runningtracksradiohour to start the run. Great tracks this week although running up Dark hill to visions of Britt Eckland was discombobulating🥴
