I made the new year’s resolution a couple of months back to do more hiking in 2019. Last year it was all about running, something I managed to tick off the list fairly well by managing to hit 76 races by the end of the year. But hiking, well, I did quite a bit, butContinue reading “Teva Arrowood Utility Mid”

The Isle Of Wight Coastal Path
As you’re probably aware, if you read anything I write, I like a challenge. Running, hiking, swimming. Hell, I even used to like exams because I wanted to beat them – granted with minimal preparation. I do a lot of things where I can push myself and test out what my mind and body canContinue reading “The Isle Of Wight Coastal Path”
TOG24 Strike Jacket
Sorry people, we may be in this interim stage of hoodie/blazer weather but it won’t be long until you need to dust off that winter jacket. That’s right, rain, snow and general coldness is inevitably on the way. The latest bit of cold weather gear I’ve been testing out is the TOG24 Strike. A jacketContinue reading “TOG24 Strike Jacket”
Hiking in Snowdonia
If you’ve ever read my website (cheers for that), you’ll probably be aware that I’m pretty heavily into fitness and running (seriously, if you’re reading it for fashion and grooming advice, you’re going to be disappointed). Sure, I do loads of other stuff as well, but predominantly most of my time is either spent liftingContinue reading “Hiking in Snowdonia”
South Coast Challenge
After I finished the London 2 Cambridge event last year, hobbling through the streets as I made my way to the hotel, I told myself it was my first and last 100km walk. Sure, it was an amazing experience, by far the most taxing of all the fitness challenges I’d ever undertaken. I remember vividly wandering throughContinue reading “South Coast Challenge”

Now don’t get us wrong, we still love a good running race or a gym session, but walking has opened up a whole new world of challenges we’d never evenContinue reading “Walking Events Coming Up in 2016”
Ash Dykes: Walking Across Madagascar
We meet a lot of interesting people at The Allrounder. Amazing people that do incredible things, the likes of which we can only imagine. When they tell us their stories we’re often lost for words at the sheer dedication required to complete the various challenges. The kind of hardships that make you look at themContinue reading “Ash Dykes: Walking Across Madagascar”
Walking for fitness
What with all the marathons, climbing, HIIT classes and CrossFit, it’s easy to forget about the humble act of walking as a way to keep fit, it’s just one of those things we always just do. We walk to work, we walk home from the tube station, we have a nice walk after Sunday dinner.Continue reading “Walking for fitness”
London 2 Cambridge Challenge
“Done much walking?” asked a friend of mine, as we sat watching a documentary about jellyfish. “I beg your pardon?” I replied, struggling to see the relevance. “Walking,” he continued, “ever done much?” I thought for a few moments. It was something I’d never been asked before. Was it a trick question? “Yeah, I walk loads,” IContinue reading “London 2 Cambridge Challenge”
