Don't think we're playing well enough to maintain the run needed to get in the playoffs.

Midlands Cross Country Championships yesterday at Mallory Park, on a fantastic course, one of the best i've ever raced on..... varied, hilly, rough.... a real test. A pretty good day for Cov Godiva.... Team Bronze medal in the ladies. In the men, i was 7th Godiva (6 count for the team)...

Exactly. They were the better of two poor teams in the final, and of the three teams apart from ourselves in the playoffs, i'd have liked to see them go up most. They made a fist of trying to stay up. Still think they'd have survived had they not thrown away that game against Forest...

As much is i'd like them to, Sunderland aren't showing any signs of dropping off yet. Be amazed if they weren't comfortably in the playoffs.

Two games ago we needed to sell the entire defence (apparently)

Sheffield Wednesday

Torp, Bassette and Rudoni. Good job nobody's slated them so far this year.

Tonight's track session was cancelled due to ice. So onto the roads in the Warwick Uni campus for 5 x 1km, with 2 minute rests between. 3:20 3:20 3:19 3:18 3:16 Very pleased with that. Followed by 5 x 30 second efforts with 1 minute rests. 10.5 miles Plus 4 easy miles AM

PVA's advice is pretty bang on (although i would still get it checked by a pro) Majority of my issues past year have been pain in the same area..... ....and it was/is tendonitis. Regular treatment.... massage, acupuncture, ultrasound Stretches Strength work Keeping it at bay.... as someone...

:ROFLMAO: For some reason i thought you had left Verona and were back in the Midlands!

To be honest i'd have to argue some of your points re the fellrunning community. There's a vast difference in abilities, and this is heightened vastly by the terrain.... hence people are supposed to be able to look after themselves, as fields split apart quickly and can be spread over several...

Yes i do a lot of fell-racing in the north of England..... i should hit my 150th fell race by the summer. Have done most of the "Lakeland Classic" races in Cumbria, as well as other Lakes races, and raced across Yorkshire, Peak District (i was a member of Dark Peak Fell Runners before joining...

Hello mate. Its a bit of a grey area between the more "technical" end of Trail Running, and then SkyRunning and FellRunning. I've not done any SkyRunning marketed races.... however as i say they aren't much different to fell races.... except they'll generally stick to ridge lines and be...

Go to a proper running/sports physio. I had shin pains at the start of 2024, and it is often related to other parts of the leg..... (in my case tendonitis in the ankle). I can highly recommend one, i go there every few weeks for "maintenance" work..... she is a friend and occasional training...

Nice one. My current 10km pb was actually ran during a 10 mile race! We were supposed to have a track session yesterday morning, but track was frozen so we did hill reps instead on the Warwick Uni Campus. And this morning i did a 2hr long run on treadmill, 1hr at 6% gradient, the final hour...

It beats me how a fanbase who have been so sceptical of owners (with very good cause), suddenly took in everything being "promised" about top 6, promotion etc, from a new owner (presumably because he was saying what people wanted to hear and spending money). Championship is always a nightmare...

Vast majority of our fanbase thought it was an Automatic Promotion challenging team tbf. Those hinting a tiny note of caution were shouted down as heretics.

Congratulations on the thread title. Almost a sentence.

Everyone was so keen to proclaim ourselves "best fanbase" in the league when things were going well. Saying its up to the players, well thats basically admitting we are no better than every other team in the league. (there's nothing wrong with that, but everyone will be talking the fanbase up...
