RB Leipzig can do one... Dynamo Dresden themselves are in relegation scrap at the bottom end of 2nd division, yet pull in over 25000 at home, and their away support makes anything in England look small-time. I'm sure they've taken 15000 away a number of times in past few seasons. Down that...

I think he means the ones installed along the top of walls to stop people from climbing up and over... Shards of glass cemented into the top...

At the Derby game I saw two blokes carry off, and walk down Thackhall Street with a "thank you for not swearing" sign about the same size as a sponsor board.

I would go and see a specialist sports/running physio when it comes to sporting activities. Happy to recommend if it helps....

I was not in any way suggesting you should be satisfied, as you obviously weren't happy with it... Just advising a little caution about expecting your min/mile times to tumble by massive amounts by dropping down from 3 miles to 2 miles.... But it looks like you're making huge progress.... I...

Ran a very disappointing 20:21 on the Bedworth Parkrun course this morning... Ok it wasn't race conditions, had to do a lot of weaving off the path, I've been training twice a day since the lockdown with little rest, so wasn't fresh, but very disappointing. Did start a little too fast and it...

Something you find with running (in fact a lot of sports)..... Just because you get fitter, it doesn't necessarily feel any easier to push to your limit... That limit may be far better than what you could do before, but it's still equally painful...

You'd be surprised how much it takes to knock off 45-60secs.... That's 20-30secs a mile. 13:53 for 2 miles is approx 21:40/5km pace, so probably about right for you.... I'd even say its very good if your 5km is around, was it 22:20..? If you knock as much as 20secs/mile off that pace you're...

I'm that side... well Ash Green end of Bedworth... Sometimes run up to Prologis, or the other side down to the Ricoh...

Yeah... There's a running thread on the General Chat forum, a few off here do a bit....

1hr12 half marathon is indeed fantastic. But whoever above suggested he could go and do 1hr05 in a race... That is a huge jump and I very much doubt it. You don't knock off almost 30secs/mile overnight...

I've done the Coventry Way Race twice (well once I completed it, last year, and the year before had to retire after about 30 miles). Great route. The race starts at Meriden Queens Head in a clockwise direction. First weekend in April usually. I heard a rumour that this year it may have been...

My main suggestion if you're really serious, is to join a club... one of the other regulars on this thread recently joined Northbrook... i'm at Godiva Harriers... there's also Massey Ferguson and Sphinx in Cov…. as well as Nuneaton Harriers, Leamington AC, Kenilworth AC.... if you want any...

It's just a case of building up to it slowly... When things are normal I average around 40-45 mile weeks, with the odd sporadic "high" week if I'm on holiday or off work, etc. So the stamina is there. But you have to build to it slowly... I was fortunate to be quite fit when I started running...

I'm knocking up 70 mile weeks now working from home. Nothing to do but work and treadmill, and occasional road run. Trying to keep sharp, getting a club "session" sent to us once a week, and I'm generally doing them twice in a week. Be interested to see what it does to my Parkrun time. I...

I think it was Vale View.. Which I think is back end of Camp Hill. The friendly bloke who's house I parked outside, kindly informed me that he was going to smash my car up with his baseball bat if I didn't move it...

I turned up to a match in Nuneaton about 15 years ago and there was a burnt out car on the pitch, and sharp metal sticking up everywhere... The ref (who obviously wanted his subs) was keen to play the match and tried to get us all lifting it up and off the pitch. To be honest I was also keen...

Yes that wind was absolutely biting this morning... I went out in a vest, and although it was the right decision (I was sweating hard after 7.5 miles), the first 5minutes were bloody freezing!

I had similar playing against Jaguar... Came on as sub and quite innocently got legs tangled up with one of their strikers... He ran off, not before stamping on my foot, I "had words".... A bit of handbags and thought he was going to throw a punch. I was heavily involved in Muay Thai at the...

3 x 5 minute hard efforts, with 3 minute rests between each one, tonight. Efforts done at around 5km effort... If not quite same pace, due to two of the efforts being uphill. Good to get out on the roads after a week of treadmill training!
