Interesting that Brighton opened up to people registered at Paris and Rome (and took money from them). Maybe they’re going to do the same for London and Manchester, and then cancel and do a runner with the dosh ....

I’m going to carry on with the plan, unless and until I know it’s off. If it is eventually cancelled, I might try and run the route on the day anyway (perhaps with an early morning start)

Hard to believe that Brighton will really go ahead if London is postponed

Ok, so much for rumours Don’t believe a word I say... https://www.brightonmarathonweekend.co.uk/press/coronavirus-statement/

Bath Half seems to be still on, too

I’m still hoping against hope that the rumours are wrong, but I’m pissed off too, and in your circumstances I’d be even more so, so not unreasonable, no!

I’m hearing a strong rumour (indirectly via someone involved in organising the Park and Ride), that it’s about to be announced that BM is being postponed until September. Early autumn’s going to be a busy time for running ...

I agree - unfortunate for Leicester, but in principle it’s a similar risk for all teams that one or more of their player will be infected, so no different from other kinds of illness or injury.

Nobody knows what the actual death rate currently is, or will turn out to be, because to calculate it you need to know a) the number of people infected (including those with no or mild symptoms); and b) what number of those will go on to die. At the moment we’re starting to see b) but have no...

Maybe you don’t, but on various trips to Selhurst I’ve seen seats ripped off, hoardings and signs destroyed and cars in neighbouring streets being vandalised by Albion fans. Given that I’m only likely to have seen a proportion of what happens, I think it’s reasonable to assume that this kind of...

Amazing performance in any conditions. Superlative today.

Struggled in the windy conditions today, not helped by two pauses, one to retie a shoelace with frozen fingers, the other to run back to pick up my stash of gels which fell out when I was struggling to remove my jacket in the wind. Net effect was a slowish time (1:53, compared with 1:43 last...

Latest forecast shows storm not hitting till Saturday pm. 9 am has 10% chance of rain and 20-25 mph winds. Should be fine for PP and HP I would have thought? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
