Today my hands got too cold to feel them whilst filming - that annual moment every year-round runner knows. After 1,973 consecutive days, this has become my personal marker for when summer running transitions to winter running. There's no specific calendar date; it varies each year, but the feeling is unmistakable. With five months of challenging conditions ahead, I'm reflecting on what this seasonal shift means for consistency, character building, and maintaining mission focus. Winter running strips away comfort and reveals what we're truly made of. With 19,730km completed and 20,345km remaining on this lap of the world, the journey continues regardless of weather. Every numb-fingered run contributes to raising £1 million for children's causes.
