🦇🎃 DAY 303 – I'M BATMAN!!! 🎃🦇

Decided to get into the Halloween spirit today and take on the streets of Wakefield with a slightly different running challenge!

22.61 km of running around the city, drawing Batman on the map! 🦇

A few wrong turns, plenty of hills, some dark streets and even fireworks along the way. Not a bad way to spend a Friday evening!

🏃 22.61 km
⏱️ 2h 30m
📈 338 m elevation
❤️ 136 bpm average

Another long run in the legs, another day of the streak completed, and another 22.61 km towards my 2026 challenge.

All in support of Thin Blue Line UK, helping those who spend their working lives helping others. 💙

303 days down. The Batmobile is definitely looking tempting now! 🦇

Day 302 — Micklefield trails.

Bit of everything today — lanes, woods, muddy trails, fallen trees and even an abandoned car in the middle of nowhere.

8.11 km done. Another day ticked off. Legs still moving.

Please… like me or hate me, I’m getting battered doing this 😂 Can you spare £1?

Day 300 of running every single day in 2026.

Tried to celebrate it by writing 300 on Strava… which went about as well as expected 😂

I’ve dragged myself through marathons, ultras, night shifts, injuries, awful weather and plenty of days where I really haven’t fancied it.

I’m at £4,135 for Thin Blue Line UK and I’d love to make one proper push towards £5,000.

If you see this and can spare £1, please do. It genuinely all adds up.

If you can spare £1, for cops mental health please chuck us a quid 💙

Day 299 ✅

A bit of a different one tonight — out around Leeds City filling in a few of the blanks on the map.

8.10km in 49:47 at 6:08/km. Nice to get out after dark, see the city from a different angle and grab a few decent photos along the way.

Another day ticked off. 66 to go.

Day 298 ✅

A longer one today around Temple Newsam — 8.1km, 211m of climbing and some cracking autumn views along the way.

Leeds skyline in the distance, woodland trails, sunshine and even a little stream crossing. Exactly the sort of run where taking the photos is half the fun 📸

Another day done and the October Elevation Challenge completed too.

Day 297 ✅

Easy 5 miles in Zone 2 around Thorner today. No heroics, just keeping the legs moving — with Luna joining us for the full run which made it a lot more enjoyable 🐶

Another day ticked off. Another 5 miles towards 2026.

Day 296 ✅
Storm outside, so back on the treadmill again. 🌧️⚡
Honestly, I was absolutely shattered today and really wasn’t feeling it — but 6.09km done, streak intact, and another few miles added to the year.
Some days are about enjoying the run.
Some days are just about getting it done.

Day 295 ✅

Cold, wet morning and I just wasn’t feeling it. Couldn’t face being outside, so it was another 5K on the treadmill.

Not every run needs to be exciting. Sometimes it’s just about getting it done.

And considering I’m now over 1,600 miles into the year, I’m allowing myself the odd boring one 😅

Day 294 – Thorner Lane 🍂

Loved this one for the photos more than anything. Proper autumn colours, wet roads, woodland trails and a decent bit of climbing thrown in too.

5.19km | 157m elevation | 34:33

Legs still know they ran a marathon a few days ago, but this was a much better way to get the daily 5K done.

22/10/2026

Day 293 – Bardsey & Rigton

AI route planner absolutely did me dirty with the hills today 😂

Still sore from the marathon, still sulking a bit, and apparently the perfect recovery run was 142m of climbing in 5K.

Nice route through Bardsey and Rigton though — church, countryside, horses and one hill too many.

Day 293 done. Streak continues.
