Yeah, sounds like a Backyard Ultra, a 6,7 km loop every hour on the hour. Run fast and you might get 15-20 rest on a loop. They broke the record earlier this year in the Big Dogs Ultra in Tennessee, think the winner got 108 loops (x 6,7 km). Would be great fun. You get up eat breakfast, chech the standings, go to work, check it again before you go to bed, sleep a whole night while they still run/walk. Repeat for 4 days or more!

Damn I’m not home. Is the ginnel rule in play, or are they using Lord Melbury’s Revised Edition?
Either way, I’ll play it safe with Bounds Green.

Skateboarding - that was brilliant. Is there any more or is that it now?
Edit. It appears that that is that. Shame. Was great stuff

Although another Australian gold - which is always a low point in an Olympic event.

She seems to have got it very wrong predicting 8 golds in the cycling though
