  • Luke Grenfell-Shaw - A Life In Tandem #132
    Jul 6 2025

    Luke Grenfell-Shaw is a remarkable endurance athlete, and cancer advocate whose story reads like a masterclass in resilience. Diagnosed with stage 4 sarcoma at just 24, he refused to let the label “incurable” define him. Instead, he coined the term “CanLiver”—someone who lives fully with cancer.

    He’s cycled 30,000 km from Bristol to Beijing on a tandem bike, inviting hundreds of others, including fellow CanLivers, to join him along the way. He’s since become a professional trail runner for Brooks, and he casually ran an 80-minute half marathon during chemotherapy.

    His story is a wild blend of grit, grief, and gutsy optimism,and it’s still unfolding.

  • Tea & Trails Ultra Debrief #131
    Jul 3 2025

    This week, we raise our mugs and reflect on the inaugural Tea & Trails Ultra, an unforgettable celebration of endurance, friendship, and the wild beauty of the Lake District. 🍃☕🏃

    From Applethwaite in the Northern Fells, 300 runners from near and far laced up to take on stunning trails and towering mountains. But this weekend wasn’t just about miles covered and peaks climbed, it was about connection & togetherness.

    With festivities for runners, friends, and family alike, it truly was a weekend to inspire and uplift.

    If you fancy joining us in 2026, entries will open soon so keep an eye on our social media channels or sign up to our newsletter to hear first.
