On Saturday I ran 5k faster than I'd ever done before (calm down lads it still takes me over half an hour, it's fast for *me* not fast for humanity). Today I ran further than I'd ever done before (6.5km at a nice gentle slow jog). I think at some point I'm going to have to accept I'm a runner now.

It's difficult to get a good photo when one hand's holding binoculars that you're trying to use to project onto a piece of card held in the other, all while the Earth-Moon-Sun system dances its clockwork dance, but I'm pretty pleased with these. #eclipse #MiltonKeynes

Started running again back in May, using the Couch to 5K app. Graduated this morning, I'm now able to jog for 30 minutes without stopping. I'm incredibly proud of myself. I can run for longer too; I've done a Race for Life and a couple of Parkruns where I've run (v slowly) without doing any walking!

A More or Less listener asked: "How many football pitches could you fit in Wales?" I was on this morning's programme to answer this surprisingly nuanced question. Item starts at 24:00 www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

I'll be at @mathsworld.com on Tuesday 26th May for another 'MathsWorld Lates' event - talking (and singing - fair warning) about the *Sound of Silence*. Some the maths of music and why it's a fun & messy interaction between artistic & mathematical intuition. mathsworld.com/events/Sound...
