    Great stuff on the pb! Fellrunning... It's still running... It's no surprise that the current top man is in the top 50 or so national cross-country runners (by comparison I have a Parkrun pb of around 18:30 and can't make the top 1000 in the national cross Champs) ... And another of the top...

    Black Prince pub in tile hill

    I'm sure you could do an equally fascinating review of all the pubs in Bedworth... Not so many now but in a lot of people here's living memory, had the most pubs per square mile of any English Town.

    Running

    Measure my mileage over ten week blocks as I find it gives a better overall picture of consistent mileage. Last ten week block which ended Sunday, averaged 57 miles per week, and that included one full week off. So working from home them being furloughed had a massive effect of increased...

    Bundesliga. BT sports 1, 2 and 3 2pm today

    Then they're removing the masks anyway to shout instructions onto the pitch!

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    To be honest, at any point in the past few years I'd have snapped your hand off to say we'd be in championship next season. I'm personally in no great hurry to be in the Premier League. Some huge games, local derbies in the championship... I'm not personally relishing the fact of a thrashing...

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    We've hardly "walked it". While we were hovering around the lower playoff positions, people here were regularly claiming we'd flop. Some even taking relegation. We didn't win away until well into the season. Yes we appear to be a step above most teams in terms of consistency, and what we can do...

    That's absolute shite to be honest

    Running

    Great stuff Crawley...! I did a 2.1 mile time-trial down the "Greenway" between Burton Green and Kenilworth this evening. 12mins42 which is about 18:45 Parkrun pace (albeit over a mile less distance). So a bit more encouraging than my recent efforts.

    Running

    When my Calf went a couple of years ago, unfortunately yes I did have to stop running for a couple of weeks. I was still able to use a cross-trainer, exercise bike. It's incredibly frustrating. But better to err on the side of caution. Mine went in a race and it was only a fortnight before the...

    Running

    The difference between training for a 100mtr and a 5km is so vast as to basically be a different sport.... We have Olympic level at both in our club, and its night and day...

    Running

    "pound for pound" in terms of cardio health it will give you the best workout and progression of all the traditional exercise methods. (swimming/cycling/Cross trainer/etc) The payoff to that is its hard (compared to things like using a cross trainer, bike, etc) and can be hard on the body.

    Bundesliga going ahead

    There's no doubt 83000 every week, and that huge terrace behind the goal are fantastic. But I think there's better fan groups in Gernamy.... Eintracht Frankfurt for one. Union Berlin are fantastic for a small club. Dynamo Dresden in the European elite for fans despite their poor team.

    I know Leicester City have a little bit of a twinning/partnership with a German 2nd division side. Think it's Bochum....

    Bundesliga going ahead

    RB Leipzig can do one... Dynamo Dresden themselves are in relegation scrap at the bottom end of 2nd division, yet pull in over 25000 at home, and their away support makes anything in England look small-time. I'm sure they've taken 15000 away a number of times in past few seasons. Down that...

    Highfield Rd auction

    At the Derby game I saw two blokes carry off, and walk down Thackhall Street with a "thank you for not swearing" sign about the same size as a sponsor board.

    I would go and see a specialist sports/running physio when it comes to sporting activities. Happy to recommend if it helps....

    Running

    I was not in any way suggesting you should be satisfied, as you obviously weren't happy with it... Just advising a little caution about expecting your min/mile times to tumble by massive amounts by dropping down from 3 miles to 2 miles.... But it looks like you're making huge progress.... I...
