Did anyone manage to bag a pair of Nike Alphafly 3's in the Proto drop yesterday?
I didn't even try, but very keen to get my hands on the next release, hopefully in time for Brighton Marathon. There is conflicting info online, some saying Feb, some saying as late as April.
The 3rd...
Did the Hurtwood 50k today. Starts in Dorking then out up over Leith Hill , Holmbury Hill and Pitch Hill……….Then back over them on the way back! My Garmin was showing 1300m of ascent and I felt every metre!!
Very muddy/slippy, very wet and very tough, but superb aid stations and volunteers...
I had both sides done about 10yrs ago. Was only due to have one side done but whilst surgeon was in there he decided to do both!
From what I recall recovery was uncomfortable for a few days but pretty quick after that. Not had any issues whatsoever since.
Good luck !
Southend Pier Marathon today. That’s right, 26.2 miles on the worlds longest pleasure pier. Up and down 22 times.
Was a mental slog more than anything, pretty stiff breeze was also challenge. Clear blue skies and sunshine tho, would have been grim and if raining.
Another unique and well put...
Kelvin Kiptum has only gone and obliterated the Marathon World Record in Chicago. 2.00.35 knocking 34 seconds off Kipchoges record.
This is the guy who ran the 2nd half of London in 0.59.47 in April. Absolutely bonkers, he’s only 23yrs old, surely it’s a case of when, not if he goes under...

Wishing you a speedy recovery - but enjoy the break - you've banked a few rest days!
Missed the game yesterday as I was taking part in the South Coast Ultra 100k. My first (and possibly last) time at the distance ! 😂
The course runs from Polegate to Arundel and takes in all the lumps and bumps along the way.
Tough going in the humid heat. But got round in 17hrs. And It’s...
Did you know that the pub name “Royal Oak” originated after King Charles II hid in an Oak Tree on his way to the port of Shoreham (yes that Shoreham) before hopping into a dinghy and fleeing to France in 1651.
Apparently it’s the 3rd most popular pub name in the U.K.
A nice factoid for...
Another Garmin fan here. I’ve a Forerunner 255 which is brilliant. Paired with the Garmin Pro HRM it gives you more data and features than you’ll ever need! Garmin connect (the app you pair the watch with on your phone) is also brilliant, way better than Strava in fact, but few people use it...
Call me old fashioned but I think what he’s saying Huw Edwards needs to put his dick away, stand up, take responsibility for his previous actions and stop putting his family in the firing line.
