Here’s to more years with @hoka & @hoka_eu, thank you for your faith, belief & loyalty throughout the highs & lows. Signing a new contract with this brand means continuing to chase my dreams, both on the track & the roads. Let’s have it man

Lengthy boring waffle :
Hoka oddly has been a brand consistent with my life since I was 13 years old. My dad joined Hoka after deckers’ purchased it in 2013 , tasked with rolling the brand out into the UK running specialty market. The house was full of deconstructed shoes, prototypes & finished product w/ binders comprising of different midsole materials, dual midsole density’s and interchangeable outsoles. From seeing the brand that young having a line of shoes limited to 7 or so to where it is now feels pretty special.
(Absolutely appreciate the nepotism angle here).
My second relationship with Hoka came after I’d had my first couple of GB junior vests in 2019, when Simon Taylor & Chris Rainsford sent me my first Hoka kit drop during lockdown. I joined the Hoka team in 2020 before deciding to spend some time in the NCAA. On my return in 2023, I had a phone call from Chris saying he had this idea of having a professional running team in London. Obviously I was sold. I signed two weeks before winning my u23 European title, committed to being a founding member of this London setup. A few changes meant the ‘London’ plan in its initial form was put on ice and as a collective we begged stole and borrowed for a year before making the move to London. It’s been a really cool journey so far & I look forward to the future.
As always, cheers to @headstartmanagement for taking care care of all this stuff & being a staple in my corner these days 👍🏼

Der Instagram Story Viewer ist ein einfaches Tool, mit dem Sie Instagram Stories, Videos, Fotos oder IGTV heimlich ansehen und speichern können. Mit diesem Service können Sie Inhalte herunterladen und offline genießen, wann immer Sie möchten. Wenn Sie etwas Interessantes auf Instagram finden, das Sie später überprüfen möchten, oder Stories anonym ansehen möchten, ist unser Viewer ideal für Sie. Anonstories bietet eine ausgezeichnete Lösung, um Ihre Identität zu schützen. Instagram hat die Stories-Funktion erstmals im August 2023 eingeführt, die schnell auch von anderen Plattformen übernommen wurde, dank ihres fesselnden, zeitlich begrenzten Formats. Stories ermöglichen es Nutzern, schnelle Updates zu teilen, sei es Fotos, Videos oder Selfies, ergänzt durch Text, Emojis oder Filter, und sind nur 24 Stunden lang sichtbar. Dieser begrenzte Zeitrahmen sorgt für eine hohe Interaktion im Vergleich zu regulären Posts. Heutzutage sind Stories eine der beliebtesten Methoden, um sich in sozialen Medien zu verbinden und zu kommunizieren. Wenn Sie jedoch eine Story ansehen, kann der Ersteller Ihren Namen in seiner Viewer-Liste sehen, was ein Problem für die Privatsphäre sein kann. Was ist, wenn Sie Stories durchsuchen möchten, ohne bemerkt zu werden? Hier wird Anonstories nützlich. Es ermöglicht Ihnen, öffentliche Instagram-Inhalte anzusehen, ohne Ihre Identität preiszugeben. Geben Sie einfach den Benutzernamen des Profils ein, das Sie interessiert, und das Tool zeigt dessen neueste Stories an. Funktionen des Anonstories Viewers: - Anonymes Browsen: Sehen Sie Stories, ohne in der Viewer-Liste zu erscheinen. - Kein Konto erforderlich: Sehen Sie öffentliche Inhalte, ohne ein Instagram-Konto zu erstellen. - Inhalte herunterladen: Speichern Sie beliebige Story-Inhalte direkt auf Ihrem Gerät für die Offline-Nutzung. - Highlights anzeigen: Greifen Sie auf Instagram-Highlights zu, auch über das 24-Stunden-Fenster hinaus. - Repost-Überwachung: Verfolgen Sie Reposts oder Interaktionen bei Stories für persönliche Profile. Einschränkungen: - Dieses Tool funktioniert nur mit öffentlichen Accounts; private Accounts bleiben unzugänglich. Vorteile: - Datenschutzfreundlich: Sehen Sie sich beliebige Instagram-Inhalte an, ohne bemerkt zu werden. - Einfach und unkompliziert: Keine App-Installation oder Registrierung erforderlich. - Exklusive Tools: Laden Sie Inhalte herunter und verwalten Sie sie auf eine Weise, die Instagram nicht bietet.
Behalten Sie Instagram-Updates diskret im Blick, schützen Sie Ihre Privatsphäre und bleiben Sie anonym.
Sehen Sie Profile und Fotos anonym an, ganz einfach mit dem Private Profile Viewer.
Dieses kostenlose Tool ermöglicht es Ihnen, Instagram Stories anonym anzusehen und dabei Ihre Aktivität vor dem Story-Ersteller zu verbergen.
