If you've upped your mileage (or intensity), then its natural to feel a bit fatigued. 40 miles is a good total, if that is an increase and you do that consistently you'll make really good progress.

It was an awful game. Regardless of the CCFC link, its not one i'd be in a hurry to watch again.

I did the Snowdon Uphill race on friday evening. From the centre of Llanberis up to the summit, along the main "railway" path. Was in the top six for the first mile or so, but as the race settled down, found myself just outside the top 10. Fortunately i was very strong on the steep mid-section...

Yes, but the above was somewhat unexpected so could argue we have been a little fortunate. We have certainly not been unlucky with how its panned out in the last few tournaments. Totally agree that nothing that has happened so far really matters.... i'm sure Argentina aren't berating...

Except for being in one of the easiest groups (again), and ending up in the significantly easier side of the draw (again).

I am definitely the sole reason we had Marcus Hall at left-back instead of Roberto Carlos.

Had to take Birth Cert/ID to Thackhall Street ticket office back in the day, every season, for a JSB/Junior season ticket. Had to start taking my mate's little brother's birth certificate when i reached 18.

I'm another. I remember 2006.... i was 24 years old and football was life.... we looked at going to Germany, but the costs and no guarantee of tickets etc, ended up going to Greece for almost the entire duration of the tournament instead, and had a fantastic time, watching every game, and it...

I have done a Snowdonia race travelling down on the morning.... although it was New Years Day so the roads were totally empty and i got there well under three hours. Although its not ideal. Any race i was taking seriously i always stay the night before, and usually for the night after too...

Next race for me is the Snowdon Uphill a week on friday. No messing about, starts in Llanberis and straight up the path by the railway to finish on the summit. No chance of winning, there's too many international level athletes who use this as practice for the full "up and down" Snowdon race a...

We played them in pre-season away at some point in the 2010's. There were perhaps a few hundred Cov there. My abiding memory is trying to find somewhere afterwards to eat, and having to travel to Hitchin instead. (Stevenage appearing to my untrained eye to basically be a huge council estate...

I think there is a general assumption amongst the fanbase that we are almost guaranteed a year-on-year progression, and that playoffs/promotion in the next couple of years is a given. Whilst i think we are now an established playoff contender, i don't think anything over and above the last...

Won the "short race" at the Welsh 1000 Metre Peaks yesterday. Starting on the A5 at Ogwen, up over Glyder Fawr, down to Pen Y Pass and the bottom of Snowdon.... up the Pyg Track to SNowdon, via a short detour to the top of Carnedd Ugain. 2hrs04.... got caught half way up the Pyg Track and...

This entire thread is a bit of an embarrassment tbf.

One of the great features of football (or it should be, if you discount VAR etc), is that the rules applied are the same from "grass roots" to "elite". Unfortunately you can't just apply a different rule on this at low level just because it "doesn't really matter", as it sets a precedent for...

Were you down the Nuffield this evening?

Nah i wasn't in there today, i was training down Godiva Harriers tonight. I'll be in there tomorrow evening though....

Coventry..... the national city of rugby

Tall guy. Shaved/ginger hair. Always on the treadmill. Always wearing a running type vest. Always got a big pair of headphones on. Several evening a week between 5:30 - 7:30 and at least one weekend morning around 8am - 10:30am Tbf i loved it at Capitol, but had to face facts i'm a runner and...

Dunno about that..... i was a member at Capitol for over a decade and although i understand your point, people basically keep themselves to themselves. My brother goes to Diamonds Gym in the middle of town and he's by no means a typical "gym freak" and he's got no complaints. And i'm at...
