His shirt may not be the best of fits but my youngest did his first ever @aberdarevalleyaac session last night. Coped really well and most importantly he enjoyed it! He put in a good few laps, nice and consistent, no walking. Top effort! He'll only get stronger from here! Already looking forward to next week. #instarunner #instarunnerswales #Aberdare #aberdarevaac #avaac #runnersofinstagram #running #diabetic #diabeticrunner #type1 #type1diabetic #irunwales #runwales #run #race  #imoveme #merthyrtydfil #merthyr #forerunner #diabetesuk #diabetes #type1diabetes #runningcommunity #kids #children #training https://www.instagram.com/p/B1OSLwsngFq/?igshid=olxuusfvz6tm

Well that didn't take me long did it. Front wheel went one way, I went up and the other. To #AandE and it's a strained right arm/wrist, a dodgy rib and broken left hand. Lesson here is always buy a good helmet! That could have been my head. #instarunner #instarunnerswales #Aberdare #aberdarevaac #avaac #runnersofinstagram #running #diabetic #diabeticrunner #type1 #type1diabetic #irunwales #runwales #run #race  #imoveme #merthyrtydfil #merthyr #forerunner #diabetesuk #diabetes #type1diabetes #runningcommunity #training #cycle #crash #injury #injured #imoveme (at Merthyr Tydfil) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0f_J38ngEK/?igshid=7jvavafp82yo

I've gone and bought myself a new toy! I do want to try a #triathlon next year and by far my worst aspect would be the cycling. So I went to @halfords_uk and got the nice shiny you can see here. Also commuting on it will be a good bit cheaper! First commute was this morning and it was scary in traffic, especially going down the massive hill I live on, but I made it (to @greggs_official anyway) without incident or injury! I'll get better! #instarunner #instarunnerswales #Aberdare #aberdarevaac #avaac #runnersofinstagram #running #diabetic #diabeticrunner #type1 #type1diabetic #irunwales #runwales #run #race  #imoveme #merthyrtydfil #merthyr #forerunner #diabetesuk #diabetes #type1diabetes #runningcommunity #training #cycle #commute https://www.instagram.com/p/B0X3jRUnZml/?igshid=mek59hycmij6

Took the kids out for a run yesterday, with varying degrees of enthusiasm. Youngest can run for longer but the oldest is the quicker sprinter when she tries... Think they both almost enjoyed it and I do think it's vital for kids to be active. Plus my boy does rock the vest look. #instarunner #instarunnerswales #Aberdare #aberdarevaac #avaac #runnersofinstagram #running #diabetic #diabeticrunner #type1 #type1diabetic #irunwales #runwales #run #race #imoveme #merthyrtydfil #merthyr #forerunner #diabetesuk #diabetes #type1diabetes #runningcommunity #kids #children #training #cyfarthapark #cyfarthacastle #cyfartha (at Cyfarthfa Castle) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzuwjDBnIu6/?igshid=ilv0rurdgrts

Always one to take my own advice, I decided to get an easy 5 in. Also, being a child took the chance to run after a #strava segment! Merthyr can be quite pretty if you find the right bit! #instarunner #instarunnerswales #Aberdare #aberdarevaac #avaac #runnersofinstagram #running #diabetic #diabeticrunner #type1 #type1diabetic #irunwales #runwales #run #race  #imoveme #merthyrtydfil #merthyr #forerunner #diabetesuk #diabetes #type1diabetes #runningcommunity (at Merthyr Tydfil) https://www.instagram.com/p/By9_9_FnBo6/?igshid=xxb1haz7hk9i

Another run, another outstanding top... Surprisingly warm as it was looking grim when I set off. But really cleared up. I got a heavy legged 6 in at just under 8 a mile. Maybe not run tomorrow... Rest is important too after all. No races coming up at the mo and that's probably for the best. Give me a month and I'll be up to speed. Thinking maybe the #micmorris10k next. Ran 41 and change last year, see if I can do it again. And it's downhill... #instarunner #instarunnerswales #Aberdare #aberdarevaac #avaac #runnersofinstagram #running #diabetic #diabeticrunner #type1 #type1diabetic #irunwales #runwales #run #race  #imoveme #merthyrtydfil #merthyr #forerunner #diabetesuk #diabetes #type1diabetes #runningcommunity #tired (at Merthyr Tydfil) https://www.instagram.com/p/By5yuyhHWjG/?igshid=17pu378arp1z2

Tired legs for the #treforest10k yesterday. Was sore in about 7 places before the start! As a result time wasn't good but at least I worked quite hard and was able to push on reasonably well in the last k. 46:57 is significantly slower than last year, which is obviously a little frustrating. Nothing imminent comming ip now, alyhough from not wanting to go near one, I'm enjoying the races again.
