LONDON -- Combining running and Lena Paul - The Next Morningart isn't the easiest thing in the world, but one British man seems to have managed it.

In the run-up to Christmas, he's been using Strava -- the social network used by runners and cyclists to plan and track routes -- to create some splendidly festive patters.

"The idea first came about a couple of years ago when I did something similar for an online competition. I didn't have any plan to carry it on after Rudolph, but my friends seemed to like it so I did the Santa one the next day, then I thought why not try and come up with something different every day up until Christmas."
Delaney uses Strava's route plotting tool to map out his patterns, then heads out with his phone and follows the route using the Strava mobile app. He's then been sharing his creations on Twitter.

"Bushy Park is not exactly easy underfoot in some places, which left the eyes looking like he'd been at the sherry," he added.
Delaney said he's been completely blown away by the attention his patterns have received.
"It's great though, everyone seems to be enjoying it and it's bringing lots of smiles, and lovely comments from people," he said. "That's what's motivating me to keep going.
"We could all do with something simple and happy this year I think."
And in the future?
"There'll be one every day until Christmas Day," said Delaney. "Then who knows, maybe New Year? Easter? A dragon for St. George's day?
"That might be pushing my luck..."
You can follow Delaney on Twitter and Strava to see his new patterns.
