Been in a post-race funk for a few weeks, but my energy and enthusiasm are returning. An assault on the ridges of Ma On Shan on the cards for this weekend and I can’t wait. #mountainrunning #trailrunning

Feeling some heavy post-race blues after the #UTMF #STY. Haven’t run in 10 days and that was my last race. Time to rest, recover from a long season and start running for fun again. (at K’s House Mt Fuji)

So good to be back out on my home #trails again - no training to do, no races to run, just for fun. #hongkong  (at High West 西高山)

Up early thinking about everything that’s happened over the past few days. New friends, new places and a few old faces. Blown away by all the extraordinary achievements and stories coming back from those who have finished the #UTMF, and thinking about those who are still out there having endured a second night of the cold. Just in awe of these people. (at Yagizaki 八木崎公園)
