We had a crack at the Cotswold Way Challenge! Can I run 100km?

It's the last week before I attempt to run 100km from Bath to Cheltenham so there's not a lot of running going on, but a surprising amount of rock climbing.

The sun is out so we're visiting spots on the Gower to climb as much as we can. The run taper for the Cotswold Way Challenge 100km isn't going to plan.

Something unpleasant is happening on my regular paths. But let's not dwell on that and get another long run in before the Cotswold Way Challenge 100km run at the end of this month! And get in the sea because it is hot!

It's June - not long until the Cotswold Way Challenge 100km run!

We got away to North Wales for a long weekend in Snowdonia, in the Ogwen Valley. I was after a bit of mountain running and we all wanted some chilled rock climbing.

Family rock climbing but Kim's been knackering her fingers and Annabel's struggling with her head for heights.

Ultrarunning in the sunning! An update on my training for ultramarathons in 2018 on a shockingly awesome day for running on the Gower coast. Sun, calm seas, high tides - after a long winter it's the best.

Rock climbing on the Gower, and trying to be parents and a family. It's tricky.

More ultra marathon training. I've trained for various sporting things for decades and performed fairly well. I've learnt a lot, but there's one rule I start with every day. Wow, I didn't mean for that to sound like clickbait. The rule is essentially, turn up, and if you feel like crap then go home. But there's more to it than that so watch the video.
