Essas águas da enchente! Eu voo para o Brasil no dia 6 de março. Estaremos baseados em Manaus, mas obviamente filmando um episódio de #firstmanout na selva. Ansiosa para voltar 😎💪🏻 eu amo o brasil 🥰🇧🇷 Tabatinga
Another year another chunk closer to my half century. 46 today and couldn’t ask for more in life. Thanks Mum for a lovely birthday and thanks @laurabingham93 for being the best wife ever 🥰 x #birthday #boxingdaybirthday #boxingday Mowsley
Home after a month in #Africa. 🥰@laurabingham93 Leicestershire
Just crossed the equator between Nanyuki and Nairobi. PCR tests this afternoon then head to the airport tomorrow. Home is in sight. 🥰
I struggled on this last race and wasn’t at my best. If I’m honest I think I’ve not looked after myself well enough at a time when we probably all need a bit of self care. It’s so much easier to grab a beer or open Instagram or the BBC News app to distract yourself from feeling restless or anxious than it is to sit with yourself and give yourself the space to repair and process this sometimes messed-up world.
I’ve neglected my meditation and got caught up in my head too much which then spirals into so many self-created (totally unnecessary) frustrations.
But I’m home on Tuesday and @laurabingham93 and the kids will need me to be strong. So I think the next 48 hours is a recharge pit-stop so that I’m back to myself and ready to take the baton from Laura who’s been amazing in holding everything together for the past month.
If the past month has taught me anything it’s that it’s so easy to slip back into old habits. If anyone else is finding things harder at the moment then my advice would be to go easy on yourself. Self care not self flagellation. Presence not distraction. And as BT used to say, “It’s good to talk” 📞

This coming Monday watch episode one of “60 Days with the Gypsies”. It wasn’t easy to film. I went in with a load of preconceived ideas of what I was going to encounter from Romany Gypsy and Irish Traveller groups. But I was blown away by so much of what I found out. Monday 9pm. @channel4 #60dayswiththegypsies #gypsies #gypsy #traveller #irishtraveller England
For those who have not watched episode 2 on All 4 it’s on @channel4 at 9pm tomorrow (Monday). It’s definitely the stronger ep. Thank you to everyone who has given feedback on the series – if you felt slightly frustrated with the 1st ep – I encourage you to watch this one. It’s different. #gypsy #gypsies #traveler #60days #60dayswiththegypsies United Kingdom

There have been a handful of gypsy shows. But none that have tried to get underneath the skin of the real issues for Romani Gypsies & Irish Travellers. It’s not as simple as it seems. Monday at 9 on @channel4

Finding it slightly harder than usual getting back into the swing of training and a relatively disciplined lifestyle. Every now and again you need to cut yourself some slack and say, “fuck it”, but that can’t be every day.
Personally I’m trying to get back into a pattern of runs, callisthenics (body weight exercises) and I’m adding cold water immersion sessions too. On day 4 but I won’t pretend I don’t have to be bloody minded and say, “Just do it Stafford!” as the last thing I want to do is sit in freezing water! 🥶🤣 The feeling of having done it though is good. A little high from dopamine and my own little self pat on the back.
If your new year isn’t quite reaching the dizzy heights that you were expecting yet then share your thoughts and ideas to stay motivated below. Every day can’t be a “fuck it” day. 🤦🏻♂️😎
🇧🇷 Achando um pouco mais difícil do que o normal voltar ao balanço do treinamento e a um estilo de vida relativamente disciplinado. De vez em quando você precisa dar uma folga e dizer “foda-se”, mas isso não pode ser todos os dias.
Pessoalmente, estou tentando voltar a um padrão de corridas, calistenia (exercícios de peso corporal) e também estou adicionando sessões de imersão em água fria. No dia 4, mas eu não vou fingir que não tenho que ter uma mente sangrenta e dizer: “Apenas faça isso, Stafford!” como a última coisa que eu quero fazer é sentar em água gelada! 🥶🤣 Mas a sensação de ter feito é boa. Um pouco alto de dopamina e meu próprio pequeno tapinha nas costas.
Se o seu ano novo ainda não está atingindo as alturas vertiginosas que você esperava, compartilhe seus pensamentos e ideias para se manter motivado abaixo. Todo dia não pode ser um dia de “foda-se”. 🤦🏻♂️😎

The Amazon is calling… so I’ve parked up my caravan and it’s time to survive again. Brazil is the next destination and I fly in two weeks. Back into the trees we go 😎🌳🌳
🇧🇷 A Amazônia está chamando… então estacionei minha caravana e é hora de sobreviver novamente. O Brasil é o próximo destino e eu voo em duas semanas. De volta às árvores nós vamos!
🇹🇷 Amazon arıyor… bu yüzden karavanımı park ettim ve tekrar hayatta kalma zamanı geldi. Sıradaki varış noktası Brezilya ve iki hafta sonra uçuyorum. Ağaçlara geri dönüyoruz…

Second and last episode of 60 Days with the Gypsies airs at 9 tonight on @channel4. If you’ve not already caught up on All4 it’s a positive end to a sometimes frustrating journey. Includes the vibrant #applebyhorsefair & much more. #60days #60dayswiththegypsies #gypsy #gypsies #traveler #travelers England
Happy #birthday my beautiful #wife. 29-years-old and have achieved so much… cycled across South America without touching money; led the first ever team to run the Essequibo River by kayak; sailed the Atlantic; being an ace Mum to Ran, Molly and Milly (and Auntie to Fliss!); and putting up with my dad jokes and funny ways! I love you. Soon you’ll be middle-aged like the rest of us 🤣🥰 xx
🇧🇷 Feliz #aniversário minha linda #esposa. 29 anos e já conquistou tanto… pedalou pela América do Sul sem tocar em dinheiro; liderou a primeira equipe a correr o rio Essequibo de caiaque; navegou o Atlântico; ser uma mãe ás para Ran, Molly e Milly (e tia para Fliss!); e aguentando as piadas do meu pai e maneiras engraçadas! Eu amo Você. Em breve você estará na meia-idade como o resto de nós 🤣🥰 xx
🇹🇷 #doğum günün kutlu olsun güzel #karım. 29 yaşındasın ve o kadar çok şey başardın ki… Güney Amerika’yı paraya dokunmadan dolaştın; Essequibo Nehri’ni kayıkla koşan ilk takımı yönettiniz; Atlantik’e yelken açtınız; sen Ran, Molly ve Milly için (ve Fliss Teyze!) için inanılmaz bir Annesin; ve babamın şakalarına ve komik yollarına katlanıyorsun! Seni seviyorum. Yakında hepimiz gibi orta yaşlı olacaksın 🤣🥰 x

It’s competition time!
I’ve partnered with @campwildernessuk to create a brand new challenge for adventurers young and old(er). We’ll be putting survival skills to the test with a special challenge during my Advanced Camps.
To celebrate the launch of this brand new adventure, I’m giving away a trip to Camp Wilderness this summer. You can win space for 2 kids on the 5-day Advanced Course or bring the whole family along for our 3-Day Advanced Family Course.

If you watched last night’s show and want to see the conclusion it’s available now on @channel4’s #all4.
For me they need to be watched as a pair. The second episode is the culmination of a journey for me in terms of my understanding of the community. In my opinion it’s the stronger ep too.

Tonight at 9 on @channel4. The first of a two-part documentary about an ethnic minority that society has increasingly marginalised. In the summer I spend two months living alongside Romani Gypsies and Irish Travellers. #60dayswiththegypsies #gypsies #travellers United Kingdom
