Dick McKraken isn’t real, he is the split personality of someone more respectable. Husband & father (of kids & dogs). Amateur runner & professional Academic. Probably only 10% as funny as I think I am. @runningpunks

Can’t be sure (because I haven’t tried to eat it) but I suspect not. Opposite the pub of the same name but not sure which came first.

Can’t see anything- it’s just a blur of pure speed!

This is the ‘Golden Ball’ which marks the highest point of today’s run (144m). At one point the sun and rain were both getting in my eyes at the same time. Hope you all managed to get some time on feet today because that eternal b@stard Monday is just around the corner #RunningPunks

Took advantage of a break between the rain weather warnings and the snow weather warnings to go for a run. There’s a lot of weather around at the moment #RunningPunks

Up until 30 minutes ago, the biggest concern for this girl was that for some reason she hadn’t been given her breakfast this morning. Just left her at the vets for her knee surgery- so I’m now feeling thoroughly traitorous (it has to be done if she’s ever going to walk/ run normally again) 😢

Today’s run down by the river showed a lot of damage done by all the rain over the last few weeks. Trees washed away & tarmac ripped up by flood waters. #RunningPunks

It looked like the stepping stones were not an option during today’s run. I had to go further upstream & use a good old fashioned bridge to get over the torrent. This was supposed to be a halfie but turned around a little early because i just wasn’t feeling it #RunningPunks

This girl is not happy. She went chasing imaginary foxes in the garden yesterday morning & came back on 3 legs. Confirmed ruptured ACL (every runner’s nightmare). Looks like surgery & a long rehab (she did the same thing to the other leg 3 years ago).

Pick up the nearest book. Turn to page 42 and post the second sentence.

“Section 2.13 covers joint & conditional probabilities; Section 2.14 covers the algebra of expectations, presenting techniques that must be mastered to follow the optional proofs at the end of Chapter 3.”
