Good lord, man! Why?

That HAS to be naughtier than what I wrote before! :lolol:

Until you get an opinion which supports your existing position? I listened to the whole broadcast with Boris and his advisors - it all seemed to make reasonable sense to me and seems a very measured and balanced response. Maybe we are in a better position to contain the virus than other...

... so can we PLEASE get back to moaning about the wind?! I can honestly say running back toward the Pier from Rottingdean is the least favourite running stretch I've ever attempted and I include the Worthing Half that year we ran into a wall of wind. That this afternoon was truly horrible...

Yes. Just because they're speaking loudly and making everyone panic, doesn't mean their coverage is right. How much is all the reaction a self fulfilling prophecy? We'll never know for certain, obviously, but I do wonder how much their coverage is the cause of the hysterical panic buying, etc. I...

On the contrary, I don't see a justification for cancelling it. I know Bozza is a hyperconservative when it comes to Covid-19, but I don't think it's guaranteed to be cancelled. Maybe it'll be postponed to October, like everything else, because October is a magical month where no disease can...

Are you into podcasts? If so - https://twitter.com/Scienceofsport/status/1233273374228598784 give this is a listen, big nuts and I spoke about it at length on the drive to Lydd and NSC's #1 runner posted it - so it's worth listening to for sure. It'll give you a wholly new outlook on activities...

Do they have one? How much of their chat is about running barefoot to save on the expense of running shoes? Or do they prefer to run in clown shoes? :wink: It is quite nice varying the pace a bit, no? Not running at a clip which is tough to maintain or that really stretches you. Especially in...

Who did they ask?! :lolol: I'm a big fan of Asics footwear, all my running shoes have been Asics and I feel quite lucky that literally the first shoes I found were ideally suited. I'm quite brand loyal and all the time they're producing colourful shoes, they'll keep my business. I'm sure...

Ultimately I think it comes down to the established clubs not wanting to see their places threatened. Inevitably for one club to get bigger, another is going to get smaller. I don't particularly like the idea of a big company taking over a football club and changing its name... But it's not any...

Are you able to break that down though, genuinely? I am curious about the profile, I've not been able to find it anywhere. The numbers are well reported, but the demographics don't appear to be unless I'm looking in the wrong places. To be clear, I'm not being sarcastic - I am genuinely...

That's news to me - is that true? Cheers, I'm stealing that image! :clap2:

.. and so it should continue. Life goes on, it would be a bad precedent to set to postpone games or hold them behind closed doors. Keep calm and carry on. Anyone at high risk would be well advised to stay away if they're concerned but the decision shouldn't be made on anyone's behalf. If the...

I'm just not buying it. I know you're concerned about it, but I really can't find it in me to think it's anything more than a flavour of the month story which will inevitably be out of the news as soon as something else happens. Obviously the numbers are terrible in Italy, and they've got some...

My question is whether more people have it than have been tested, or whether it's just simply not something which warrants the wall to wall coverage. Of course, there's always a chance that we'll get more cases when Italians living here come home (etc) - but it does fuel my scepticism a little...

:lolol: That's just bizarre - not for me in the slightest. Especially at the price! My 4 x 1 miles around Preston Park at lunch time were decent, a little bit of wind whipping around and nice and chilly. 6:30, 6:15, 6:20, 6:08 for the splits and pretty comfortable for them all. My plan for...

It just got better and better and better and better. :lolol: Then, the following week, Nightmare on London Road! :bowdown:

I really can't see the Brighton Marathon being cancelled, there's no real evidence to suggest that it would be a hotbed of spreading. The show must go on and whatever happens, I'll be running the course on the day. Preferrably without open roads, but I'll be doing it regardless because I'll have...

Well, now I KNOW I'm in the wrong because I agree with Boris. Let it do what it's going to do, crack on with your life and hope you and your elderly relatives aren't impacted at any point. The chances of them dying because of Covid-19 is currently less than 1% of confirmed cases in the UK...

That was my reaction as well - good but not as good as Spotlight, which is a fairly similar kind of premise of uncovering a scandal. I enjoyed it, Mark Ruffalo is a brilliant actor for that type of role in my opinion but it's just not as good as I hoped it would be. Tonight I'm doing a double...
