Just been to see Sara Pascoe and Miriam Margolyes at St Georges Hall as part of the Bradford Literature Festival - so refreshing and fantastically funny, I nearly fell off my chair laughing at times 😂 - what a great afternoon 👏 #BradfordLitFest

I've been scanning entry tickets today at the latest #BradfordLitFest event The Hamziyya Of Iman Al-Busiri, but kept slipping into parkrun volunteering mode and accidentally saying "Well Done" after scanning someone's barcode - I bet people thought I was nuts 🤪 Bradford Literature Festival

Here's a view of my tired legs - this morning's 5k around Frizinghall has destroyed them! 😂 #running #legs #caput

Just attended a fascinating talk on the Bradford Exhibition 1904 held in Lister Park in, erm, 1904! It was in the Festival Hub which is a lovely space for events with teas, coffees and books available to buy ☕️📚 (oh, I'm volunteering tomorrow!) #BradfordLitFest Bradford Literature Festival

Please vote.

I've now finished volunteering at Bradford Literature Festival and attended some great events including the amazing Sufiyana Kalaam, met so many lovely people and done lots of cycling to get there! Thank you to all staff and volunteers, you were incredible 🤩 #BradfordLitFest #LastDayToday

Right, #BradfordLitFest has now finished so back to training - 7k and a bit today and the Great North Run in 9 weeks - let's do this! #GNR #GNR2024 #GreatNorthRun

The #Paris2024 games are officially open. À demain! 👋

Penny farthing race in 1928. This should be brought back for the next Olympics. It’s brilliantly bonkers. 🚴🥇

Just 6 weeks (minus a day) until the Great North Run - just done an 11.5k run with 6k at race pace and a few tricky hills here and there in the terrible heat around Bradford - but all seems to be going well so far! #GreatNorthRun #GNR2024 #LetsDoThis

Bradford today looking glorious 🌞

A bridge, a circle, a fascinating city... and yes a bit damp this week! #Glasgow #Scotland

Went to the amazing VictoriaparkrunGLA in Glasgow for the first time today and it was great, nice and flat-ish (a bit of a hill but absolutely fine) and I got my fastest time of the year - my GNR prep is going well I reckon! 🏃‍♂️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💪 #loveparkrun #GreatNorthRun #GNR2024

Long 15k run just done - I'm pooped - all because I foolishly want another crack at the Great North Run! I must be absolutely mad 🤣 #GreatNorthRun #GNR2024 #IMustBeMad

The Ukrainian Community are attending this week 24.8.24 to mark Ukrainian Independence Day. They raised over £250 for Unbroken, a rehabilitation charity in Ukraine, when they joined us last year. Please turn up in yellow and blue, optional of course, to show your support 🇺🇦💛💙

Had a brilliant morning volunteering at Manningham Library with a surprise appearance from Les Girafes putting a smile on everyone's face - the main event, with many more giraffes, is on Saturday between 4-5pm in Bradford City Centre Bradford 2025 #Bradford2025

Last run done today, now third time lucky let's do this thing right this time! 💪 #GNR2024 #GreatNorthRun

Thank you #GreatNorthRun for an amazing event - I did get very wet and my legs stopped working after 15k but those are just a couple of features that made this run so unique 🤣

This wins the internet 🤣
