As a runner, you might be wondering why taking pro

As a runner, you might be wondering why taking protein powder is essential for your overall performance. Well, the answer is simple: protein is the building block of muscle tissue, and when you run, your muscles undergo a lot of wear and tear. To repair and build muscles, your body needs protein.

Here are some reasons why runners need to take protein powder:

1. Muscle recovery: Running puts a lot of stress on your muscles. Protein powder helps repair muscle tissue and speeds up muscle recovery after a run.

2. Muscle growth: Protein powder helps to increase muscle mass, which is essential for runners who want to improve their performance.

3. Immune system boost: Long-distance running can weaken your immune system, making you more susceptible to illnesses. Protein powder contains amino acids that boost your immune system.

4. Energy boost: Protein powder helps to increase energy levels, which is essential for runners who need to maintain high energy levels during long runs.

5. Convenience: Protein powder is easy to prepare and can be taken on the go, making it the perfect post-workout snack for runners who are always on the move.

In conclusion, taking protein powder is essential for runners who want to improve their performance, increase muscle mass, speed up muscle recovery, boost their immune system, and increase energy levels. So, if you're a runner, make sure to incorporate protein powder into your diet to help you achieve your fitness goals. #runnersofinstagram #runners #runnerscommunity #runnersgym #runnersworld #runnerslife #runnershigh #runnersofinsta #mds2023📈 #tent96 #marathon #marathontraining #marathondessables2023 #marathonrunner #eatrightrunners

Why do we run? Running is not just a physical ac

Why do we run?

Running is not just a physical activity, it's a way of life. It's a journey that teaches us to push beyond our limits, to face our fears, and to discover the strength within us.

We run to challenge ourselves, to set goals, and to achieve them. We run to clear our minds, to find peace, and to connect with nature. We run to feel alive, to experience the rush of endorphins, and to appreciate the beauty of our bodies.

We run to inspire others, to show them that anything is possible if we believe in ourselves and work hard. We run to support causes we are passionate about, to raise awareness, and to make a difference in the world.

So why do we run? Because it brings us joy, it makes us feel alive, and it reminds us of our limitless potential. Whatever your reason for running, keep going, keep pushing, and keep inspiring. You never know who you might be motivating along the way.

Happy running, my friends! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️💪🌟 #WhyWeRun #Inspiration #Motivation #KeepGoing #NeverGiveUp #PositiveEnergy #HealthyLiving #FitnessGoals #HealthyLifestyle

Todays workout was a killer but as the post says…. My body loved it. I love the feeling of pushing my body, I enjoy seeing at what point my mind starts to think of quitting.

6 rounds
4 minute free runner - pace 13.5kph or faster
3 minute rower pace - 1.40/500 metre split
2 minute Ski erg - 1100 cals an hour pace
1 minute farmers walk 32kg k bells in each hand (had to hold a 20 and 12).
No rest = horrific.

All about building the engine. Ultra runners out there will be saying log loads of miles, but for me I have other challenges others goals as well as the marathondessables.

Another massive shoutout to my sponsors @drivelodgeroofs and @brownbagprotein without them nothing would be happening. A huge shoutout to my wife @kerryboaty89 who has begun her own career in fitness with @kerry_boatwright_fitness down at @sandylandsfitness.

This week will also see us hopefully record the 4th episode of Impossible, I’m in. Now that @jtwaring is back from his adventures.

Starting my workout off with @brownbagprotein Cherry Pre workout. I really just wanted to show people that I don’t just run all the time when training for @marathondessables. In fact it’s quite the opposite, I make sure I still lift weights at least 3 times a week. The weights help my body keep structure for running. It helps my body get used to the impact that running gives it. #runner #weights #weightsworkout #weightstraining #preworkoutsupplements #preworkoutnutrition #brownbagprotein #brownbagproteinshake #liftingweights #liftingweightsnotwine #liftingweightsmakesmehappy #liftingweightsisfun #endurance #endurancetraining #mds2023 #mds2023🔥 #mds2023preparation

For so long the marathondessables seemed like it wasn’t going to happen. Mainly as it’s mega expensive. Luckily @jtwaring and @drivelodgeroofs came along. Thanks massively to James this once pipe dream is now a reality. It’s just over 7 weeks til I am in the desert on the starting line. Mileage will once again increase as the training intensifies. I have always loved this bit, the training for a challenge, getting my body to the shape it needs to be in. I’m hammering @brownbagprotein down to keep my protein in take high. I feel good and feel strong. Now, just one foot in front of the other, day after day.

The next episode of Impossible, I’m In is out tomorrow. In episode 3 we go back to just myself and @jtwaring talking about all things mental. From mental strength to struggling with mental health. I delve into the @wattbike challenge and what happened and also what happens next.

So many runners think that supplements are just for gym junkies. One of the best things I ever did was start having a protein shake after a long run. The ability to recover quickly was brilliant and my body felt great the next day.

If you haven’t already check out @brownbagprotein. Clean, ethical and sustainable supplements. Give them a go, your body will thank you for it.

After a little bit of time to think after the Watt

After a little bit of time to think after the Wattbike it’s been nice to gradually get back into the gym and on the bike again. I have thought a lot about the challenge since, even while I was sat in hospital I couldn’t turn my mind off. Now I’m just going to be doing things at my pace. For many they might still think it’s too fast, too much. But for me, I love the buzz of life, the hectic, frantic rush that comes with it. So the next challenge is already on the way. I’ll update more this week. Massive thanks for all the well wishes and get well soons. I feel great.

Also, massive thanks for all the podcast comments. Myself and James have loved making it and can’t wait to bring you more.

The next episode of our podcast Impossible, I’m in is now live. Episode 2 is titled “A Couple of Tits” I’m sure once you listen you will understand why. You can listen to it via the link here or the link in the bio. Thanks to everyone for the support so far. Hopefully we hit 100 downloads with this one.

We spoke to @woodieg6 about what makes her tick as a business owner and an athlete. We dig deep into the drive and resilience it takes to be successful in business and the type of person it takes to be an athlete.

This was recorded pre @wattbike challenge. I will chat about the set backs and challenges that this has given me in our next episode.

Update. Thanks for all the messages last night. I had a momentary stop of blood to my heart. I’ve had more scans and blood tests than I ever thought possible. I can safely say it scared the sh1t out of me.
I’m back home now and feeling much better. Thanks to Jim @coldbathbrewing and John and Derek from @chevincyclesltd. At my weakest they were brilliant.
I felt like we had battled through the cramps and through the horrible early hours and were sat in a good groove and making good progress. It all changed in seconds.
I’m sure I will be back stronger but this just helped remind me we are all human. Thanks again. #cycle #hospital #recovery #recoveryispossible #fatigued #heartstopper #heart #backhome #painful #teamwork #endurance #endurancetraining

The stage is set! The @wattbike is ready. Thanks to the guys @coldbathbrewing and @chevincyclesltd for the setting up and hosting.

You can follow on @gozwift if you like and search Sam Boatwright.

All powered by @brownbagprotein! Protein shakes, flapjacks and pre workout.

Setting off now at 0300 Saturday morning. Work on Monday is not going to be fun.

To start the year off with a bang and a decent challenge I’ve teamed up with @chevincyclesltd and @coldbathbrewing to see if I can break 500 miles in 24 hours on the @wattbike. This time though I’m not going to stop after 24 hours and will keep going using @gozwift to complete 874 miles which is the equivalent of Lands End to John O Groats. The @allblacks conditioning coach reckons he has the record for this at 488 miles, I’ll make sure the record stays with me with 500 miles done. @chevincyclesltd are also providing a spare bike for people to come and spend some time with me. If you’re in the Harrogate area and can pop down to the clubhouse at @coldbathbrewing then come and say Hi. The event will take place across January 7/8. Like always I’ll be at work teaching on Friday and will be back in Monday. #epic #epiclifechallenge #wattbike #endurance #endurancetraining #jogle #JOGLE #24hours #24HoursChallenge #faster #fasterliving #coldbath #harrogate #cycle #cyclechallenge #cycleworldchallenge #record #breakrecords #breakrecord

This has been something that has been months in the making of not years. We know like anything, that in doing this we open ourselves up to all that social media has. If you have comments or people you would like us to talk to or you maybe think your own story should be spoken about please get in touch.

For now, on this miserable Wednesday why not sit back and listen at my dulcet Yorkshire accent for the next 30 minutes.

I have been threatening to do a podcast for a while and i have finally managed to get round to it! I’ve teamed up with @jtwaring from @drivelodgeroofs to bring you a podcast that delves into the mindset of those who push the boundaries. Our first episode will be released soon so keep an eye on all our social media channels. We discuss what it takes to do the seemingly impossible, whether it’s physically or mentally. We look at business leaders and entrepreneurs and explore their drive and determination. Each episode we will interview a person who has pushed the boundaries and changed the landscape in their particular field. If you have any ideas of people for us to interview then let us know….. for now, keep your eyes peeled for updates! #podcast #podcasting #podcaster #podcastlife #runnersofinstagram #runners #runnerslife #runnersworld #marathon #marathontraining #marathonrunner #business #businesscoach #businessgrowth #businessowner #leader #leadership #leadershipdevelopment #leadercoach #change #ChangeYourLife #changemanagement #mindset #mindsetmatters #mindsetquotes #mindsetcoach

As a teacher I can sometimes get bogged down with the constant assessments, scrutiny and endless marking and forget to teach the students the things that can really make a difference. I will always believe that teaching any kid Maths is a good thing but I also want students I teach to know that they can do anything, absolutely anything they want. They just have to keep moving forward. I had a reference request this week from a former pupil. It always makes me happy to get these, to see the amazing things they have gone on to do or are going to do. I really hope I helped inspire them to know they are unbeatable, they can do anything and all they have to do to get there is keep moving forward. #keepmovingforward #keepmoving #keepmovingfoward #unbeatable #brilliant #Brilliant #thefuture #thefutureisbright #inspire #inspiretheworld #inspirethenextgeneration #InspireTheFuture #maths #mathstutor #mathsteacher #mathsteachers #mathteachertribe #runnersofinstagram #runners #runnerslife #runnersworld

I saw a running magazine recently called @likethew

I saw a running magazine recently called @likethewindmag, they were asking about running stories. It got me thinking back to this picture. I remember telling people I was going to run 50 miles everyday for 50 days. “You’re too big”, “you can’t”, “it’s impossible” or you’re not even a runner. All these things were said to me before I set off and all things that bounced around my mind every time I thought about quitting.
I’ve thought a lot about the mindset of endurance runners since this and I said something to a group the other night. For me, endurance is the ability to take your self into the darkness of your mind and see how long you can stay there. #endure #endureandsurvive #enduretotheend #marathontraining #marathon #marathonrunner #running #run #runnersofinstagram #runningmotivation #runningcommunity #runner #runningstrengthtraining #runningexercises #runhappy #ultrarunner #ultramarathon #Ultra #pain #50milesmore #furthertogether #FurtherTogether #ukrunning #ukrunningcommunity #brownbagprotein #brownbagproteinshake #theepicrun

This always make me smile, I love that I have written these two books about my adventures. The next book is proving difficult to write but I’ve challenged myself to try and write a little bit each day. Hopefully it won’t be the price that Amazon sell it at!!! Definitely cheaper on my website. Training has been going great over the last few weeks and feeling really strong as a very tough year approaches. Thanks for all the support and messages. Keep posted for some training updates.

Has anyone else watched this on Netflix? Love this. The adventure, the resilience, the challenge and just the love that everyone on it seems to have. Whether they are looking for their limits or soothing their soul all the riders have reasons for the ride.

I think it’s always easy to forget the amazing places I have run. For the majority of my distance running I have run on the road…. But the allure of the Montane Spine Race is becoming too much. 268 miles of the amazing penine way. A bucket list race for many ultra runners…. Coupled with the Fred Whitton and the MDS, should make it a pretty good next year of challenges. You can follow all my training and races on here. #nextadventure #nextadventureawaits #nextadventureplease #running #runningcommunity #runningmotivation #runningmotivationalquotes #runninglife #runningthroughlife #runningclub #runningcoach #ultrarunningmagazine #ultrarunninguk #ultrarunningmag #marathondeserables #themarathoncontinues #marathonchallenge #marathoner #wanderlustlife #views #viewpoint

This is a really simple post but one that so many

This is a really simple post but one that so many runners don’t listen too. If you want to arm your body ready for the battering that a run will give it then you need to make your body strong! That doesn’t mean upping your mileage, it means lift weights. The only reason I have been able to run further than any other person is because I try and lift weights everyday and I have done for a long time. Whether you are looking for strength or weight loss then lifting weights is the best thing you can do. Lifting heavy coupled with basic maths on calorie control you will hit your body goals.
My rules for ultra running are simple, run when you can (doesn’t have to be a long run), lift heavy weights, up your protein and stop bloody moaning.
