Last post about 65-for-65. Having now turned 65 I've written some reflections on the experience: 70 miles running in five days through spectacular Welsh mountains and valleys and over £1300 raised for @CR_UK - thank you so much to all who contributed. alandix.com/65-for-65/refl…
About to set out for Day 5, the last day. Five miles from Aberaeron to Llanarchaeron and back, but only a mile of that needed to reach 65 miles! Set to be heatwave today, but will be finished well before the heat of the day sets in. justgiving.com/page/alan-dix-…
Just setting off for Day 4, finishing off Taff Trail and then a loop around the Cardiff Bay Trail. Approx 9 or 10 miles. Hoping to get breakfast at the Senedd when I finish :) justgiving.com/page/alan-dix-…
Just getting ready to set off for day 2 of 65-for-65 now. Shorter run today about 14 miles Merthyr to Pontypridd. A bit of a drive and then train journey to get to start, so my first tweet on @alanwalkswales won't be for a couple of hours. justgiving.com/page/alan-dix-…
A day to go before my 65 for 65 run starts. Weather looks a bit miserable for Sunday (marathon over the mountains) I'll look just like the picture! After that much better. Many thanks to everyone who has donated so far, I've pushed target up to £1065. justgiving.com/page/alan-dix-…
In just over a week (6-10 July) leading up to my 65th birthday, I'm running 65 miles in aid of Cancer Research as cancer affected several family and friends recently. The multi-day run starts with a marathon distance over the Brecon Beacons mountains. justgiving.com/page/alan-dix-…
See slides and notes of "Enabling the Digital Artisan" my talk at ICOCI earlier today. Unhindered technology always favours the big and powerful - can radical digital and AI technology empower thesmall? @tango @CardiffMetRIS alandix.com/academic/talks…
Today is my last day @cardiffmet. I won't be idle; "Introduction to AI" is due out in June and other books in the way, but a change of pace and focus. To mark this and turning 65 I will run 65 miles in a week in July in aid of Cancer Research UK. alandix.com/blog/2025/05/2…
