Run With Adrian

😀 We did a 10km 2 days ago in the central valley that was 1400ft total - I needed a rest day yesterday as my legs were ruined 😂

Running 10 miles around four volcanoes in Timanfaya National Park: Lanzarote 🌋🏃‍♂️

What else would you rather be doing on a Saturday morning?

This was a superb trail run - raw volcanic landscapes, endless views, and legs definitely feeling it now!

Thank you kindly ☺️

10k is my happy place ☺️

Thank you kindly Louise ☺️

Thanks Neil - happy with that today and it’s a useful benchmark for this year 👍

Today was Nantwich 10km 🏃‍♂️

This is a lovely race to do as it’s pretty flat and was also my first race of 2026.
Went out with a sub-50 in mind so I’m pretty happy with an official 48.17 today, which is a reasonable benchmark for the year ahead.

Happy running everyone!

It’s easy to fall into the habit of running the same routes every day.

So, shake things up!

Explore new streets, chase a few more hills, and bring the excitement back to your miles.
Make running an adventure, not just a routine. 🏃‍♂️✨

My ‘goto’ socks are Hilly - like you say… especially for anything HM upwards .. but these are proving pretty reliable for my daily runs 👌

I’ve found a few brands which work really well - and they do ‘colour’ so… why not be cheery indeed 👌

Anyone else on the hunt for the ultimate shoe-and-sock combo?

Life’s too short for boring runs, so let’s get out there as bright, cheerful runners and stand out while we’re at it! 👍✨

As soon as the sun breaks through and there’s just a hint of warmth… and that first sense of spring, running feels incredible and becomes the perfect way to start the day 🏃‍♂️

Some days, it feels good to just get outside and simply run 🏃‍♂️

No plan, no pace to hit, no distance to chase, but just running for the pure joy of it 👌

It doesn’t matter how fast or slow you are…

What matters is that you get outside and keep moving 🏃‍♂️✨

#running #fitness

1000miles is a great yearly target - managed over that the last 2 years ☺️☺️

If you are looking to shake up your interval runs, find those Strava segments with the weird names & use those for your speed and sprint work 🏃‍♂️

You can always revisit them again to see if you have improved!

I pick the ones that are between around 50 seconds > 2.30mins 👍

Thank you - I never expected running to become my ‘thing’ but I’m so glad it did - and have a fabulous week Eric 👍

Thank you - at 55 I’m healthier and fitter than my entire career in the army 😂 It really has changed my life & hopefully I may well live a little longer 👍

Thank you : it’s definitely been life changing & it’s made me a happier and ‘nicer’ person 👍

I'm certainly glad I made positive changes to my previous unhealthy lifestyle.

*I stuck to healthy unprocessed food choices in a calorie deficit & did plenty of exercise…

Natural, healthy weight loss!

Making time to move your body is one of the best things you can do for your health and mindset 🏃‍♂️

It doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes just a brisk walk outside is all it takes to reset, recharge, and feel better.

Small steps = big impact! 👌

Cheers Neil 👍 it was fun avoiding the icy patches 😳

What better way to start Saturday morning than parkrun 🏃‍♂️

Cold and icy, but with the sun shining it was glorious running weather.

Simply the best way to start the weekend 👍

#running #parkrun #fitness

That’s also a good way of looking at it ☺️ it’s all about what makes you happy 👍

Running Tip of the Day!

Don’t compare yourself to other runners 🏃‍♂️

Think of why you started running and focus on your personal goals and what you wish to achieve.

Simply do what makes you happy!

No rain on today’s run! 🙌

For the first time in weeks, I actually ran without getting wet 😄

*I don’t really mind running in the rain, but it definitely made a change, and it turned into a really enjoyable 5-mile tempo effort 👌

Hope everyone has a brilliant day!

Did you set a New Year goal to run more or get fitter?

If motivation’s dipped, you’re not alone. Winter makes it tough, but don’t quit now. Spring is coming, and every run now counts.

Stay consistent, trust the process, and remember exactly why you started.

You’ve got this. 🏃‍♂️

The perfect answer…
It gives me purpose, make me calm, and has given me some fantastic friends ☺️
I love running 👍

I don’t belong to a run club, but have made so many friends through social media and doing Parkrun - the running community are great people ☺️

I’ve come to realise that times are not as important to me… the simple process of running, race & being part of the running community makes me happy ☺️
