As I don't wish to be relegated, next time you update the table could you add my Preston Park Parkrun from yesterday: 22:40, AG 71.99% ? (I'm assuming the AG column is still based on SB rather than PB?) Many thanks.

Shambles - no way I'm going to Manchester and Liverpool in the same week. Guess I'll plump for the Liverpool match and hope that City is indeed televised.

Definitely a bit of maranoia kicking in for me as my first ever marathon approaches. Having run most of the route at various stages of training in the last few months, keep finding myself daydreaming of various bits of the course and imagining how it's going to be - the Basin Road/power station...

I don’t remember this being advertised, but I’ve just had this email out of the blue from Brighton marathon, saying ... “As an American Express Cardmember who paid for your 2018 Brighton Marathon entry using your card, you are invited to take advantage of: • A fast-lane queue at Race Pack...

This is my first Brighton marathon (first marathon of any kind). As I just posted on the running thread, I was kind of hoping for sub-4 hours, but given my lack of experience in distances longer than a half marathon, and my advanced age, that may be optimistic. And as the OP notes, the trip to...

Cheers, that's really interesting. You might be right and I should probably err on the conservative side and rein it back a bit more - your splits after 20 miles are exactly what I was hoping to avoid! It's really difficult to judge, never having run one before, and only having the experience...

As someone who (recent recovery from injury permitting) will be doing his first ever marathon on 15 April, all this wise and seasoned advice is really helpful. I think I've done the training (including a couple of 20-plus milers in the last two weeks), and I got just under 1h 44m in the Brighton...

Obviously, I don't care what colour my passport is, or where it is printed, although I would prefer it to remain an EU passport, rather than revert to a UK one. What I don't understand is where all this discussion about blue passports came from. I've just dug out my old passport, the last one I...

Is punctuation not simply one part of grammar?

you can't beat a pair of Grensons https://www.grenson.com/uk/archie-mens-gibson-brogue-tan-calf-leather-leather-sole.html Look after them and they'll last for ever I've got a pair I bought in the late 70s. They've been resoled and reheeled a couple of times, but good as new and oh so comfortable.

That simply doesn't make sense. It can't be both ... or.... It's got to be 1) both .... and OR 2) either.... or And there's quite a difference between them. So someone who's got a ticket from someone else (who's eligible through loyalty points but who doesn't actually want to go...

Personally I love the Cliftons. I’ve had all sorts of shin problems in the past from long training sessions and they’ve gone since shifting to the Hokas Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Only wear Hokas these days. Have a couple of pairs of Cliftons on the go for road running and a pair of challenger ATRs for mixed trail/road sessions. They have massively reduced my injury-proneness, and I tend to start a new pair once I’ve done about 300km in an old pair and rotate and then...

I got two tickets in block T first thing this morning

Er ... actually I went the last three times we played at Selhurst, and I was describing my own experience accurately. Last time, I was kettled, and then escorted back to the station, where I got a train going north and not a train going to Brighton, with no difficulty. Sent from my iPhone...

You're not forced onto any train. Once you've been 'escorted' to the station, and having been duly entertained by your fellow Brighton fans kicking off the wing mirrors from the cars of innocent local residents, chucking their dustbins into their front gardens etc, you can catch any bloody train...

Genuine question - I’ve just watched several of these Arsenal Fan interviews. Why do they all talk in a bizarre sort of cod Caribbean accent, even the white ones? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Terrible sense of geography - they were defending the end of the pitch closer to Lewes rather than Hove at that point

Yes my Brighton half time was a new PB of 1:43:57, for the next time the table is updated (I still can't work out how to do it myself....)
