A pleasant riverside walk along the Tyne into Newcastle, stopping for coffee & cake at an Italian café. Carried on past some reminders of coal haulage & many bridges & then left the riverside for the final 5 miles....07 Aug 2026 17:46 +0000at://did:plc:drvm4texvyypjzhb3ph5yjfl/app.bsky.feed.post/3msj4flw5jc2rhttps://bsky.app/profile/peterunner.bsky.social/post/3msgkv37hsk2pDay 5 of Hadrian's Wall trail - a long section which left the remnants of the wall behind, mainly spending time walking close to the Military Road through fields, besides the Vallum (a ditch behind the wall). Spotted a 4th trig point. Staying by the River Tyne before the final leg to Newcastle.06 Aug 2026 17:28 +0000at://did:plc:drvm4texvyypjzhb3ph5yjfl/app.bsky.feed.post/3msgkv37hsk2phttps://bsky.app/profile/peterunner.bsky.social/post/3msdtbvsvak2hDay 4 of our Hadrian's Wall Path. A shorter, mostly downhill stretch from the Old Repeater Station to Cholloford. We passed a milecastle overgrown by oak trees, long stretches of Wall still there & an old temple & a visit to Chesters. Had time for a swim by the bridge. JimBobs ear healing OK now.05 Aug 2026 15:20 +0000at://did:plc:drvm4texvyypjzhb3ph5yjfl/app.bsky.feed.post/3msdtbvsvak2hhttps://bsky.app/profile/peterunner.bsky.social/post/3mrztxhnvd22iWe're walking along Hadrian's Wall national trail this week. We've left the car in Newcastle, then caught the train from there to Carlisle. Currently waiting for the bus to Bowness on Solway, where we'll spend the night before tackling the first stage back to Carlisle tomorrow.01 Aug 2026 16:05 +0000at://did:plc:drvm4texvyypjzhb3ph5yjfl/app.bsky.feed.post/3mrztxhnvd22ihttps://bsky.app/profile/peterunner.bsky.social/post/3mri3kjchls22Katharina Hartmuth has broken the #BobGrahamRound female record, completing in 14hrs 12 minutes. Wow! 😲😮25 Jul 2026 14:33 +0000at://did:plc:drvm4texvyypjzhb3ph5yjfl/app.bsky.feed.post/3mri3kjchls22https://bsky.app/profile/peterunner.bsky.social/post/3mprau7cws22wBeen asked to assist another runner on leg 4 (Wasdale to Honister) of their #BobGrahamRound attempt in August. That should be fun, as it is the best leg (most scenic & usually done in daylight!), but I'll have to brush up on my navigation. Good to be able to help another contender.03 Jul 2026 19:12 +0000at://did:plc:drvm4texvyypjzhb3ph5yjfl/app.bsky.feed.post/3mprau7cws22whttps://bsky.app/profile/peterunner.bsky.social/post/3mp7i4mqbhk2mAfter I'd finished following the dots on the Summer Spine Races, I got round to putting down some thoughts on my experience of doing the Winter version on the Challenger South race earlier this year. https://petesrunningblog.wordpress.com/2026/06/18/spine-challenger-south-january-2026/26 Jun 2026 17:34 +0000at://did:plc:drvm4texvyypjzhb3ph5yjfl/app.bsky.feed.post/3mp7i4mqbhk2mhttps://bsky.app/profile/peterunner.bsky.social/post/3moqai3khnc24Today's run took me from Hawes to the top of Gt Shunner Fell & back on the Pennine Way. Beautiful views & weather.20 Jun 2026 16:07 +0000at://did:plc:drvm4texvyypjzhb3ph5yjfl/app.bsky.feed.post/3moqai3khnc24https://bsky.app/profile/peterunner.bsky.social/post/3monrs2opq22wFinally, back to "proper" training today, with a trip to the gym after work today & a longer run planned for tomorrow. No major goals until Autumn - some unfinished business with the Long Mynd Hike, which got cancelled last year. By then I should know if I have a place on the Challenger North Spine.19 Jun 2026 16:39 +0000at://did:plc:drvm4texvyypjzhb3ph5yjfl/app.bsky.feed.post/3monrs2opq22whttps://bsky.app/profile/peterunner.bsky.social/post/3modhf6q7sk2iLooks like Anna Troup has dropped out of the Summer @spinerace.bsky.social #SpineRace, leaving Jenny Hartley as the leading female at Hardraw.15 Jun 2026 14:06 +0000at://did:plc:drvm4texvyypjzhb3ph5yjfl/app.bsky.feed.post/3modhf6q7sk2ihttps://bsky.app/profile/peterunner.bsky.social/post/3mobitlinyc2yToday we had better weather for our walk up Nethermost Pike, Dollywagon Pike & Seat Sandal. The last Wainwrights on leg 2 of the Bob that Lucy hasn't climbed. Got good views over Swirral and Striding Edge and Ullswater.14 Jun 2026 19:27 +0000at://did:plc:drvm4texvyypjzhb3ph5yjfl/app.bsky.feed.post/3mobitlinyc2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/peterunner.bsky.social/post/3moa76sctc22fYesterday's Wainwrights were Bowfell, Crinkle Crags and Cold Pike. (#126 for me). Weather was still blowy on the tops!14 Jun 2026 07:02 +0000at://did:plc:drvm4texvyypjzhb3ph5yjfl/app.bsky.feed.post/3moa76sctc22fhttps://bsky.app/profile/peterunner.bsky.social/post/3mo4eyjgnns2tWe had a spare weekend in the diary as a bad weather backup for my Bob Graham attempt. Obviously, we're in the Lakes ticking off some Wainwright's (a goal for both of us). Today, we walked up High Rigg (#125 for me) & then most of the Leg 2 summits (Clough Head, the Dodds, Raise & White Side).12 Jun 2026 18:35 +0000at://did:plc:drvm4texvyypjzhb3ph5yjfl/app.bsky.feed.post/3mo4eyjgnns2thttps://bsky.app/profile/peterunner.bsky.social/post/3mnv2n2pmxs27We've been visited by a small family of Foxes over the last few weeks, a vixen and two cubs.
