I see what you're doing wrong: you're putting the same foot in front of the other each time. Try alternating them. #RunClinic
Sometimes I'm also asked about my 'running technique'. "One foot in front of the other (repeat to finish line)" is mine: what's yours?

I blame my alter ego, who spent yesterday being nostalgic about the FA Cup Finals of his '80s childhood: xitter.gq/no17bus/status/7340869…

I may have got a medal and a PB, but the REAL marathon was the friends I made along the way. I mean it: they were a total drag and a pain.
Probably one of those fads you see in Runners World every month, like barefoot running and chia seeds and taking a shower.

Our coach is always showing off with fancy "innovative" ideas. The latest thing is that slow and steady does *not* win the race. 😏

I'll be one of the sub-55 pacers at @terenure5mile this Sunday. If you'll be with our pace group or just see us, say hello.

A pity that @dublinmarathon doesn't go past the GPO any more, what with this impressive 1916 race bling: xitter.gq/dublinmarathon/status/…

Please RT to raise awareness of blisters.
The blister was on the knuckle so it got quite messy. It took ages for it to dry out and scab. But it's almost gone now. #ThanksForAsking

My only running injury so far in 2016 is a blister on one finger from taking out cross-country spikes and putting in track spikes.
