Jokes aside, the next few months are the greatest test of the athlete. Anyone can pull on their trainers on a blue sky day. But you've got to think blue sky, when it's not. No excuses. Get out there! Get that run in.
I can see a rejuvenated athletics scene here....on the wild streets. Christie was into this a few years ago....toe to toe racing for the fun of it. You never know.

I wonder whether we'll ever see back garden ultras again. I think that's where everything started to go downhill. Happy Monday!
Of course the start and finish of my run was the meeting point for the annual nudist bike ride.
Running is pricing out the youngsters. It's ok for middle agedom to indulge in a pursuit that can cost ยฃ100s but we're simply not attracting the young. It's not hard to see.
Thoroughly recommend Norman Harris books on times gone by. "Scottie" is a great read too about a troubled athlete who performed exceptionally well.

Another silly study says that 7500 steps will keep you in good fettle, but in all seriousness the 10000 wasn't enough and even 20000 won't save you if other factors are working against you. No shortcuts.
More easy miles today. They provide the cushions for the tougher stuff.

When you're beginning to feel good in the second half of runs, you know you're entering a better place.
Sodium bicarbonate has been around a long time....a bit like other stuff that's meant to be new.
Sometimes it's the easy run that challenges you. You know then that you've made the right choice. Staying the right side of the line is the A game, if you want to stay in it.

Didn't get their true day of glory. Like others. The farce that is world level athletics. World Athletics Championships: GB relay team receive gold medals 28 years late - BBC Sport share.google/pf9CsUeKDnnTMwโฆ
It can take several months and years of cumulative run training to harvest results. That's the fact that many shy away from. No shortcuts!

Can't disagree. London Stadium has proven to be an awful move for so many. Soulless....neutral....you could literally be anywhere.๐ช
West Ham didnโt know how lucky they were to have Upton Park, they should never have left. Has always been my favourite ground to visit as an away fan, bar none. ๐ฅบ
