Best spot in the house to watch the long descent into Marone after what is surely one of the toughest VKs. #trentapassi #skyrace #goonmyson #iseo

Regram from the mighty @1_in_the_gutter whose footsteps I've had the pleasure of following on two runs in two days. 🏃 🏆 #Mugello #nevernotrunning #timeyoustartedwatchingyourback #doesherealiseimininjuryreheb? #slowdown

Once again Valtellina came through for us: dream house, fresh burst of motivation & some amazing new trails with @1_in_the_gutter on my day release from injury prison. #tirano #pegleg #friluftsliv #valtellina #vjsportshoes

Bidding farewell to the mountains & @1_in_the_gutter for eight days. 🌄🐺🍕🏃👣

I got a Tuscan run this morning & it didn't disappoint #Tuscany #nevernotrunning #ifonly #gammyfoot #pegleg

New attitude towards watching rather than running: ain't so bad after all, especially when you're in Tuscany & @1_in_the_gutter & @dega1977 are flying. #Mugello #mountainrunning #mudfest #friluftsliv

And now the wonderful post-ride afternoon in Buonconvento with the best olive oil & even better red wine 🍷. #eroica #Tuscany 🚲🚲

Tuscany and its strada bianche have stolen my heart. #eroica #stradabianche

Those days are nearing once again 🏃 #Norway #Hardangervidda #rockhopper

The Collinges do mid-90s cycling chic as we grew up on the Great Notts Bike Ride. #cyclingchic #sixvelos #soenduro @aiken_collinge @lollinge
