Enjoyed an afternoon in London seeing friends and visiting Dear Earth at the @haywardgallery 🌍 “We are part of nature, not outside of it. What we do to Earth, we do to ourselves”
A print of a tree set against a blue background with women’s faces depicted in the branches. The words “We are part of nature, not outside of it. What we do to Earth we do to ourselves” run along one branch.

📢 Public service announcement 📢 If you can put out some water in a shallow container it can go a long way to help the smaller creatures out there 🐸🐤 Likewise if you have younger, smaller untended street trees nearby, they might appreciate some water too 🌲

Replying to @grosem
37km / 23 miles in 2hr51 (with some pauses for photo stops and directions)... miscalculated the route slightly as it would have been a full marathon so had to cut a corner off the Thames path on the return and ended up following a bit more of the London marathon route
Misty run along the Thames - Battersea to Greenwich and back #london #marathontraining

20 miler along the Thames from Battersea Park to Chiswick bridge and back again. Lots of rowing crews out - definitely overtaken by @CUBCsquad a couple of times! #ukrunchat #theboatrace
Long run along the Thames from Wandsworth to Richmond including a spin around @richmondparkrun. View from Wandsworth Park one of my favourites in London. 5 weeks left of #marathontraining until @bostonukmaraton (the UK one!) #ukrunchat @UKRunChat
Been a while but great to be back volunteering with @claphamparkrun - 535 runners, joggers and walkers made it 5km around Clapham Common this morning including plenty of first timers. Did my own 5km straight after, 21km #marathon training run tomorrow #ukrunchat #parkrun
