@postgrad_barty I once agreed to meet a lady in a pub for a date - I arrived and she was sat with her 6 kids. I bought them all a drink and politely left shortly after 😬😁

@johnb72_ The German girl’s page - for crying at the footy - is up to £19,000. I’m running multiple marathons for a cancer charity and I’m on £600. Feel free to drop in and leave a pound, and retweet too. Thanks 🙂

@Joel_Hughes The online abuse was awful. The attempt to put that right is to be applauded. The German girl has got £11,000 so far. I’m running multiple marathons and trying hard to raise a few quid for a cancer charity that helps people all over the UK and does brilliant work. I’m on £400.

4:06. Decent effort. About to go knee deep in dirty burgers and a bath full of Guinness. No PB - but second fastest marathon and 31 mins quicker than last year. 🏅☺️

My two little ones have sports day tomorrow. Their Mum has apparently told them to just have fun. Obviously I’ve bought them both a Garmin, given them a long chat about pace & speed and we’ve spent 3 hours doing timed shuttle runs in the hallway. 😉😁

Ran past a lady today. I was on mile 10, tired but feeling pleased. “Good boy” she said, as I went past. “Thank you” I replied, the boost giving me a touch of extra pace. “I was talking to the dog” said the lady. “Woof” said the dog. 4 more miles, embarrassed, smiling 😁😁🏃‍♂️

A woman, if she so chooses, should be able to walk home from the pub drunk, naked and alone, at night, and not get raped or murdered. Or assaulted in any way. She should be able to get public transport alone. The fact that no woman can, is not a woman’s fault. It’s men’s fault.
