Two summits, one day! Another incredible day in Courmayeur testing a mix of climbing and mountaineering skills. Love this feeling. 🀩

An epic 18k run up to 2500m high on the border of Switzerland and Italy - that's a way to finish the best trip to the Alps. 🫢

Grit, gravel and biscoff! Took on the Glorious Gravel 90k with 1500m +D today - some rough trails out there but the waffles and biscoff sauce made it all worth it! #gravelgrinding

Does anyone else think ultra cycling is getting a bit too extreme? People being lauded for riding over 1000km in 3 days with a total of only 8 hours of rest throughout - what on earth is this doing to people's bodies? Impressive, but long term consequences might not be ideal...

Legs feeling surprisingly ok after running the Maverick 50k ultramarathon at the weekend - 1200m of climbing was spicy. Oh, and it rained nearly all day! But got it done πŸ’ͺ🏼πŸ₯΄

What do you do 6 days after running an ultra? Go on a 230k gravel bikepacking adventure around Suffolk, of course! πŸ’™

A day of horseback lancing at the Centre of Horseback Combat! Some serious skill required to flip and throw the lance at targets while trotting and cantering along. So. Much. Fun! πŸ‡

Ever tried shooting a gun from a galloping horse? Easily one of the most exhilarating things I've ever done: absolutely brilliant experience. 🀠

Back from a horse drive in Idaho, herding 40 horses across the mountains and camping under the stars. What a way to disconnect! 🀠🌌

Overnight temperature of 17 degrees C to just 4 degrees C in as little as 3 days. Love the predictability of UK weather πŸ˜…

A week of swim bike run in Lanzarote at the end of November - now it's back to cold weather and rain for the next few months I guess! πŸ₯Ά
