I popped along last night to watch The Invisible Man, magnificent film. Brilliantly acted by Elisabeth Moss mainly, but with a strong supporting cast. The plot moves around a little bit although not overly surprisingly. There were a couple of genuine jump scares, the young lady I saw it with...

I can confirm it is definitely raining outside! I ran a nice route taking in The Level, Brighton station, Hove Park recreation ground, St Anns' Gardens, Palmeira Square, Adelaide Crescent and then popping along the promenade back to Brighton Pier. A wonderfully measured 7 mile route in 9 minutes...

Amazing streak, Bozza! :bowdown: Totally against what works for me, but horses for courses and as you say, very different motivation. My only concern about focusing on easier runs for longer periods of time is that when it comes to raceday, especially over 20 miles (sunday) and then the...

Honestly - I can't agree more. I've done very little more than ramp up my milage but at slower tempo and it's not doing me any harm. The only thing I'm really lacking is events other than parkrun (with the exception of the Bedgebury 10 miler) which back up the success. Sometimes it's tough to...

That's how I got started, I was using Strava on my phone in a pocket strapped to my arm. It was only after my 2nd marathon that I purchased a Garmin watch (Forerunner 10) which I still have, all these years later. It does everything I want it to, including the option to lap the watch...

Really disappointing. :down: Without quoting all the good advice from the sages, get it looked at and get on the road to recovery. A nice period of rest won't do you any harm and you'll come back in ready to fly come marathon day. :thumbsup: It just frustrates me because it's serious for the...

I'm tempted to enter Leicester Marathon again for this year, but I don't really want to doom the residents to more flooding. Or maybe it would be a totally fresh disaster, reusing the same would be a waste of Mother Nature's talents/sense of humour.

Frankly, the biggest liability for the Brighton Marathon is that I've signed up. Cancel it for consistency sake, if nothing else! :thumbsup:

Personally, I think that we have good enough players but they're constantly on edge because one minute you're a starter and then the next you're barely in the squad. Jahanbakhsh opens the scoring against Bournemouth (we rarely take the lead in games, so by all means punish someone who puts us...

Ah yes, this virus which affects almost nobody but we're meant to be considering it a global epidemic because the media are having a great time with it. The reporting is bordering on criminal in my opinion, massively unimpressed by the whole story and reporting. If the Brighton Marathon is off...

Not for me - Lydd 20 miler this sunday. :clap2: First ever race over that distance so I'm excited to see where I am for pace. I'll be aiming to run it 6:30 per mile, but we'll see how long I can sustain that or how quickly I have to re-assess that pace during the run. Why?

Irchester Country parkrun for me on saturday, they'd had to cancel the last two weeks but the conditions were almost perfect on saturday morning. I followed a local for the first 0.75 miles as he flew out of the traps but he clearly hit a wall when we hit the uphill section and I strode past and...

A club comes into money and spends it - we're the same as Wolves, just less successful. They've not come across as many duds as we have, their link with the agent is working well for them currently. It's just jealousy really, the criticism.

An absolute Rolls Royce of a footballer, genuine Premier League quality through and through although I still don't think we've really tapped his full potential. Maybe that's a criticism of Davy himself, he's been here long enough now to be showing his full range of flair and skills. We see in...

:lolol: Planning! I meant to say Warwick, which is DEFINITELY this weekend. I have the fitness, but I think I need to calm my tits a little bit and focus on the long term and not the short term. The Lydd 20 miler is the next big event I'm looking forward to, and I probably will be doing the...

A bit of a session for me this lunch time - 20 minute warm up, 3 x 2 miles (5 minute recovery jog in between), 20 minute warm down. I ran 12:53, 13:00, 12:23 for the three sets of 2 miles - guess which was the only rep with the wind at my back! It was a good, hard session but I'm feeling it now...

But he should be immediately brought off to chants of, "you're not fit to wear the shirt! There's only one Ben's Grandad". :thumbsup:

Blimey, I often run through that way. :down: Recover well, and soon!

Jesus! :down: Where was it?

But you also have to think about the quality the other players in our league. Everything is comparative. We are where we are in the league so it's not unreasonable to want to improve, and to improve we'll need better players relative to our standard. That was much easier in League 1 and to a...
