The endless pursuit of β€œenough”

Maybe I need to get better at celebrating my wins, maybe the reason I don’t is why we keep moving. Who knows.

Very proud of this one. πŸ…

1:19:23 at the Vale of York Half β€” a 2:15 PB.

More than the time itself, I’m really pleased with how I executed it. Settled in, stayed patient and pretty much clicked off 6:00–6:05 miles from start to finish. I had more of a progressive plan going in, but sometimes you have to race the race in front of you and there was a group that I didn’t want to get detached from.

The last 3 miles were a different story though. I had to properly dig in to keep the pace there, and crossed the line knowing there really wasn’t anything left to give.

That’s probably the most satisfying part β€” getting the ex*****on right early enough that I could empty the tank when it actually mattered.

It’s also come off the back of probably the most consistent block of running I’ve managed in years, and with no taper off peak mileage so far. Nothing spectacular β€” just week after week of getting the work done, staying healthy and gradually stacking fitness.

And one of the best bits of the whole day was seeing my girls at the side of the road cheering me on. There’s something pretty special about being absolutely on the limit, then spotting them and getting that little extra lift. ❀️

It’s all relative, though. Plenty of people reading this time is impressive and fast, while some of the runners I’m looking up to are literally 10 minutes further up the road.

Maybe I’ll get closer to that one day, maybe I won’t. For now, I’m enjoying finding out, taking it as it comes and appreciating these little personal progressions along the way.

I’ve spent most of my sporting life as a cyclist who runs a bit, but I’m absolutely loving finding out what I can do with running when I give it some proper consistency.

Onwards. πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸ“ˆ

A pretty special day watching the Tour of Britain with my daughter ❀️

I’ve watched and raced bikes for most of my life, so getting to share days like this with her feels pretty cool.

Just the two of us, heading to the start, watching the race roll out and then sticking around for the Festival of Cycling afterwards.

Fair play to British Cycling and everyone involved in putting that on too. There was loads of free stuff for the kids to have a go at and she absolutely loved it.

Although, in fairness, I think I enjoyed some of it just as much as she did πŸ˜‚ I got roped into having a go at a few things myself, while she took great pleasure in standing behind the camera documenting my efforts and providing some fairly brutal commentary.

Then we headed back home to Beverley to watch the finish, and seeing how excited she was to have this massive bike race finishing in our own town was probably my favourite bit of the day.

I’m not sure she’ll remember who won, or probably even care πŸ˜‚, but hopefully she’ll remember that we had a really good day together. I know I will.

One-on-one time gets harder to find as life gets busier, which probably made today mean that little bit more. Bikes have given me a lot over the years, but days like today might be some of the best bits. ❀️🚲
