2020 has thrown many a curve ball and we are still waiting to see where it will land.

I hope the ball lands soon soo we can all see where we are and start working out where we go from there.

This year has been more so than ever about controlling what you have control of and just letting go of the rest.

Stay well and keep moving forward

Getting the dogs prepped for touring, love seeing

Getting the dogs prepped for touring, love seeing them in their natural environment and they even behaved really well.

Oakley being on point keeps the younger Lhotse in check.

Now another good day of snowfall and we can get off the snowshoes and onto the skis.

Stay well and keep getting after it

The only way is up, following the amazing @justine

The only way is up, following the amazing @justinetonso on @garminfrance photo shoot.

The snow has been falling, I hope by the weekend we can use our 20k and 3hrs to go get some white stuff fun.

Stay well and stay safe

I was tired, it had been a long day and the last thing I felt like was a night time run in freezing temps.

but these are the runs, rides or trips that always give you so much more because you had to dig that little bit deeper to get out.

Not only were the views amazing, it was the best I have felt in a long time.

Full moon in Chamonix valley, giving some impressive views.

Stay well and always find that reason to get off your arse.

This time last year I was in Morocco with my eldest son, he came to support my run attempt on Toubkal.

It was a success sub 7hrs up and down, in fact easy compared to trying to be a parent.

I have lost so much time with my children that can not be got back, the biggest summit I am yet to reach is being the best Dad I can be. (Always working on it)

All the mountains summited, oceans crossed, mean nothing in comparison to time shared with my children.

Love you Bodhi, Occy, Belle and Alma.

Stay well and keep your family close.

Today we were set a little bit more freedom, so I

Today we were set a little bit more freedom, so I found a new route, which gave new trails, new views and new suffering.

Lockdown takes its toll, I found myself mentally exhausted, drained and I can only put this down to the release of pressure after the 5 weeks.

I understand how psychological stress takes it out of us physically but was not expecting it. Thankfully the new route offered fuel in the way of epic views.

Take care people, lockdown takes more from us than we think.

We all have choices in life, we can chose the easy

We all have choices in life, we can chose the easy path that brings comfort or we can chose a harder path that will bring discomfort, but in that discomfort is where you will find success, achievements, true joy and for me that reward is better than any day sitting on my sofa.

Stay well and go get some discomfort

Spot the skier, a game we will be allowed to play

Spot the skier, a game we will be allowed to play again after the 28th! (Touring)

So nice to get some positive news about increasing our freedom to play.

Now if it could hurry up and snow that would be great.

My thoughts are with those who are still dealing with this pandemic at the sharp end, I hope we all get some more freedom soon.

Early mornings have always been my go to, life is

Early mornings have always been my go to, life is clearer when we walk, run, ride in the early hours.

Not only do you get the best head start on your day, you can be treated to the real beauty of nature.

This has been missed for sure in this lockdown and it’s been hard to appreciate the views but now our gaze can start to creep beyond our immediate.

Stay well and go get your early

🏴‍☠️ THE FORGE INTRODUCES 🏴‍☠️

I’d like to introduce you all to Jon Fearne @jon_endurance_coach

Jon has 24 years of working with athletes across all areas of endurance and adventure, whilst pushing his own limits even longer- often finding them and usually looking to go beyond.

Helping individuals achieve their goals and dreams is the most powerful fuel for Jon

Jon has coached multiple world endurance champions in MTB, Polar solo athletes, Atlantic rowers, 8000m summiteers, professional adventure photographers and many other crazy adventures and FKTs.

Living in Chamonix provides Jon with the opportunity to be able to push his personal limits in the mountains on a weekly basis.

Jon also has extensive personal experience racing Ironman, Stage foot and MTB events as well as ocean surfing

One of Jon’s personal achievements is the completion of both the Transalp (mountain bike) and Transalpine (running across the alps), having been the only athlete to complete both to date.

With just over a week to go until a possible relax

With just over a week to go until a possible relaxing in our rules, the plans start racing in my head.

What first? After our first lock, it was get up high and breath in the views, embrace the hard effort to get there and believe me it’s the same this time round.

Digging deep to stay productive and positive for hopefully only one more week

Stay well and be ready for a little more freedom

No mountains, no running, biking, climbing etc S

No mountains, no running, biking, climbing etc

So much of my inspiration comes from all of the above activities, I then have to take this back to my desk and use what I have learnt physically, mix it with my academic understanding, a big dose of psychology and a pinch of art.

It’s so rewarding working with such driven people, all with different goals but with one thing in common, they work hard and keep moving forward.

There is at last a sense of optimism among athletes, friends and family that we are coming out of a dark time.

I am looking forward to writing a piece for @__the__forge__ on my personal coping with this Covid year.

Writing is easier in my @auxiliaryworks hat 😃

Stay well and keep using your why
