Nicola Pennill has a great story about how she got into trail running! She explains what she loves about it, and how she's getting on in the final month of Trail Running mag's famous #Run1000Miles challenge.

Sorry about the wind noise! Always breezy at Rutland Water.

We ran 6miles from the Normanton car park after Nicola had already completed a very windy but beautifully blue-skied parkrun earlier in the morning. Nice running Nicola!

It was fantastic to run with her, and this Rutland Water 1hr session was bought by her amazing husband Andrew as a welcome back present after a trip to Australia, and also a birthday present. And maybe Christmas too...
