A wise person learns from their mistakes - a wiser one learns from someone else’s.
Here’s mine
This isn’t your list of ‘do strength training’ you’re past that by now.
This is the things I would do if I could go back and tell myself.
Genuinely from the bottom of my heart -it’s the best & worst thing I’ve ever done.
I’m so excited to follow 2027s jungle run

The coolest race checkpoint in Scotland (possibly the world) 🛖
Barrisdale Bothy lies on the shores of Loch Hourn, next to a stunning and inaccessible beach.
Bothy’s are stone cottages found across the Scottish mountains, free to use and open to all as a shelter from harsh weather, or a respite for weary legs.
One used by drovers taking cattle from the Highlands south, Barrisdale now offers a moment of rest to walkers, climbers and ultra-runners as they cross the ‘rough bounds’
