I do think it's rather marvellous that there are 6 women aged 65+ competing in the hammer at the British Masters Athletics Federation Championships this afternoon. Including Anne Martin who is in v85 category. More power to her elbow I say! #MastersAthletics

Winter in the Lakes. Each season brings its own unique views. The way the snow delineates the landscape bringing the mountains into sharp focus makes for magical days out. Not a bad time of year to slowly return to training.......😊

Thank you ULTRA magazine for a great article reflecting on 'Why I do what I do' 😊

A real pleasure as guest lecturer and to have such an attentive audience. Thank you for inviting me 😊

A lovely fun chat with Paul Toms about running but also more serious concerns around health ageing and the workforce.

My friend, Rebecca Brennan is on a quest for a female #fkt running the #Capewrathtrail 240 miles and 40,000 feet of spectacular but remote landscapes in northwest Scotland. Follow her journey here: live.opentracking.co.uk/rbcw22/

A parcel was sent to me on Fri 25th Nov via DPD which stands for Dynamic Parcel Delivery. Daily texts promise its arrival then more telling of woeful delays. Same again today. I suspect tomorrow will be another Groundhog Day - 8 days and counting...what say you DPDgroup

Always a pleasure😊

Honoured to be invited to talk all things bone health and ageing well at a celebration of #InternationalWomensDay today 🙂
