Not sure if he’s a keen runner, but Dan Martin was at IoW parkrun today. I thought it was him at the start but wasn’t 100% sure, but when I checked the results he was 2nd in 17:35 for his first parkrun. A quick Google confirmed he’s on the island, doing promo stuff for ToB.

Good spot. His wife, Jess, is an elite distance runner (represented GB at Olympics). I don't know how much he did whilst he still racing, but wouldn't surprise me if he's taken to doing some now he's retired.

I do wonder if he's generally trying to boost his media career, as he's recently done some work with GCN, including a fun couple of videos about being introduced to downhill MTBing.

In case you hadn't seen, Vivani managed to ride the Europeans Road Race (and was in the mix at <1km to go) and then go straight to the velodrome and win the elimination race.

Not a bad effort.

I hope he cycled from the road race finish to the velodrome! :-)

Oh no, his career has seemed so short.
