Run Around The World has now ended and what we achieved as a team is absolutely incredible and we managed to hold onto 13th place 🙂
Huge well done to @louiserosee.bsky.social @squirrellyaltruist.bsky.social @emmbean.bsky.social and Jill Wakeman #runaroundtheworld #blueskyrunninglegends #running

Monthly Mileage Day! I've taken part in the Run Around the World challenge for several years. Their Charity Rethink has a special place in my heart as they have looked after my Mum for over 20 years 🥰 I ended up 7th which is my highest ever position🏆 Brilliant event & team #BlueskyRunningLegends 🏃‍♀️

Two bare🦶on wood floor. Bright pink orb of a blister protruding from 2nd toe. On the left foot 2nd toe there is deflated skin from a recent blister also that started in California and a damaged nail bed where the nail is starting to grow back.

#12 on Run Around The World Leaderboard. I’m sure people will still run marathons and half marathons today. I’m proud of my efforts and the whole team and everyone who contributed on other teams too! 😊

#5KADay yesterday was a 5 mi & 5K again, today it’s my slowest #10k ever on this massive blister I could feel every step. The blister on the left index toe leaked out and the left toe nail bed is healing. I just want a pedicure for my running toes! #Runsky #Runchat #BlueskyRunningLegends #RATW

Another 5 miles towards #blueskyrunninglegends total. For all those who have been following, we are still 13th 💪 but being chased down. 840 miles between the 5 of us 🏃🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️ A quick cuppa 🍵 then just Dora 🐾 to walk & that's me done 🤪

Day 31 of Run Around The World done.
Last day of the challenge today and finished off with a gentle 5K.
Have run more miles this month than ever before in one month 🙂🏃

First Cali run to feel like a real push and slowed me down. Windy on the rtn and ended uphill. Woke up before 5am w/calf cramps #Runsky #Runchat

8-mile progression 🏃‍♀️ The run was easy, it wasn't too hot & there was a nice breeze 🙏 oh & my graph is a work of art 😆 #running #blueskyrunninglegends

Busy day yesterday so I did my long run today. Miles are getting high now. 17 miler in very humid conditions. Most of the run was at an easy pace with a couple of 2-mile pickups 💪 #running #blueskyrunninglegends 🏃‍♀️

St.Albans summer 10K for me this morning and more miles in the bag for Run Around The World too.
It was tough conditions out there so I was super happy to sneak a sub 40 in 🙂🏃

So many more miles that my left knee tried to buckle on me today and yesterday at the 10 min pace so having to keep it slow, especially with mounting insomnia. I definitely need 😴 & pushing it #Runchat #Runsky

A nice and easy 5K this morning to keep things ticking over ahead of doing longer mileage over the weekend weather permitting 🙂🏃

Got 162 move streak open. 🥳

#5KADay today: #10K #FitnessWalk badge for Run Around the World #RATW for #BlueskyRunningLegends. Didn’t have 5 miles of #running in me from repeat insomnia. We’ll see if 10K+ helps or hurts running for tomorrow. 😬 Bizarrely my right foot got super sore and I had to slow way down #Runsky #Runchat
