    I know that chap.... John. Decent guy.... Went to him when I had achilles problems about 6 years ago. He was heavily involved with physio for Cov RFC at one time (and possibly one or two football teams).

    That's a great weekly mileage and if you can keep anything even approaching that on a regular basis the improvements will be huge. We are always told that consistency is the key...

    That's a fair time for a mile.

    I just use a pair of Sennheiser Bluetooth headphones. Never had any issues. Alrhough I only use them when treadmill running... Never use headphones when I'm on the roads.

    Running

    It's definitely runnable by the lakes, it's a popular dog-walking area with wide paths. The small section from the lake nearest to Prologis, out onto Ctrl Boulevard, is narrower if I remember correctly, but more likely to cause a route-finding issue first time round, rather than a running issue.

    Running

    You can get from the Central Boulevard through a bit of a footpath, to those small lakes near to New Road (the Ash Green to Keresley road), and loop back round New Road and into Prologis again. Best to look at Google Maps, and once you've done it once and know where there path is etc, it's a...

    Did a track session at Pingles this morning. 8 x 400mtr efforts with 90secs rest between. Ran them all between 76-78secs, which is faster than usual for me (and explains why I could only manage 8..!)

    Most Shocked About A Result

    Good... Probably the Blackburn 5-0 Bad... Around a similar time, perhaps a year or two later, we played Tranmere in the league Cup. First leg away, lost 5-1.... I was playing snooker at the time and someone shouted the score out and thought they were on a wind-up.

    Not heard of that one.... Although I don't do any of the "virtual challenges" etc.... I'm not on Strava and don't even own a GPS watch. Record all my runs on pen & paper! Godiva Harriers, to answer your second question...

    We're getting our weekly club sessions WhatsApp'd to us to do at home, on road, treadmill, etc. This week's was 6 x 3 minute efforts with 1.5 minute jog recovery in between. Last couple were most uncomfortable!

    Great stuff on the pb! Fellrunning... It's still running... It's no surprise that the current top man is in the top 50 or so national cross-country runners (by comparison I have a Parkrun pb of around 18:30 and can't make the top 1000 in the national cross Champs) ... And another of the top...

    Black Prince pub in tile hill

    I'm sure you could do an equally fascinating review of all the pubs in Bedworth... Not so many now but in a lot of people here's living memory, had the most pubs per square mile of any English Town.

    Measure my mileage over ten week blocks as I find it gives a better overall picture of consistent mileage. Last ten week block which ended Sunday, averaged 57 miles per week, and that included one full week off. So working from home them being furloughed had a massive effect of increased...

    Then they're removing the masks anyway to shout instructions onto the pitch!

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    To be honest, at any point in the past few years I'd have snapped your hand off to say we'd be in championship next season. I'm personally in no great hurry to be in the Premier League. Some huge games, local derbies in the championship... I'm not personally relishing the fact of a thrashing...

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    We've hardly "walked it". While we were hovering around the lower playoff positions, people here were regularly claiming we'd flop. Some even taking relegation. We didn't win away until well into the season. Yes we appear to be a step above most teams in terms of consistency, and what we can do...

    Great stuff Crawley...! I did a 2.1 mile time-trial down the "Greenway" between Burton Green and Kenilworth this evening. 12mins42 which is about 18:45 Parkrun pace (albeit over a mile less distance). So a bit more encouraging than my recent efforts.
