I used to do this all the time also however got out of the habit somewhere along the way. This may be of interest to someone….

  1. Courmayeur to Chamonix, Day 1

    This one was interesting as it was only one of the three posts written on this long-distance run/trek we did in 2018. See number 2 for the full trip report….

  2. Trail running Courmayeur to Chamonix over three days

  3. Patones: climbing outside of Madrid

    I was surprised to see this one in the list but after the struggle I had to find out information beforehand, perhaps I shouldn’t be?

  4. Review: Logical Progression by Steve Bechtel, ClimbStrong.com

  5. Courmayeur to Chamonix (trail running): Day 3 - Trient to Chamonix

  6. The Raw Ultra (Wickow Way 80-km/50-mile) run report

  7. Courmayeur to Chamonix (trail running): Day 2 - La Fouly to Trient

  8. Helping teenagers Code: a review of the Vodafone Code Like A Girl programme

  9. Raw Ultra kit details: what was worn, what was carried and what was eaten

  10. November: 5 random things from the month

The biggest learning is people are searching this site, and others, for specific information on a destination or a trip for the most part. The sole one that stands out in here was the Code Like A Girl programme where I was discussing an event I was in attendance at, and yet, in this current era, it also is largely evident why it was popular: people are interested in increasing the number of women entering STEM subjects.

What’s also interesting is the large amount of traffic generated from social networks. For the most part, most of my traffic comes from here these days. Interestingly, when I look back at previous years, around 2013, 2014, I was starting to see an increased amount of traffic where people were just coming to the site of their own accord. However, as I reduced my output (multiple reasons) this went on the decline. It’s interesting to see if this balance starts to return as I continue to increase my output through 2020 once again….

What was your most favourite post? Any feedback on the site?
