I assume we've lost, as King Mong is spouting his expertise again.

For those asking about what's best, a slightly faster 5km or a slower 10km for general fitness... My opinion is until you can go out at least a few times a week and run a 10km "easily"..... You should always look at increasing distance or time, rather than pace. Then when you can do that sort...

I scored 4 against Arley United (who were dogshit) when I was 16....

Getting used to running on tired legs is not necessarily a bad thing... For someone who wants to progress, the usual starting point is upping the mileage with steady runs, which is inevitably going to mean some runs are not done "fresh". What is bad however, is forcing out hard sessions when...

Everyone is different. Some will say total rest. My preference is get back out ASAP. Even if its 15mins uphill walking on the treadmill, or a 10min jog. I find it helps. But don't go in hard again until recovered. Had a club internal cross-country last weekend, only 6km but surprisingly tough...

I think the last few posts again highlight what a shit show it all is. I personally have no appetite to be "educated" by anyone from the football community on anything... Be it racism, politics, morals..... Whether they be Millwall fans, Sky Sports and their presenters, Neymar and his team...

Quite apart from the issues on this thread... Football has really gone downhill in the past couple of years especially. Everywhere you look, it's constant cheating, diving, "game mangement"... Constant hysteria surrounding the big 4/6/whatever. The past year has obviously not helped...

That is the very question I was asking. Yet apparently they state that they are apolitical. I think this whole thread sums up that it's a total mess. It's a sad commentary on the world today that I feel I have to publicly state that I am totally against racism, otherwise i feel it might be...

I totally agree with this. By the same token of my first point... Those I know who go out of their way to constantly moan about it, I either know or heavily suspect to be quite racist...

Well this is the issue... BLM is (correctly or incorrectly) associated with politics in the UK. That's how it is. Millwall are associated with racism and thuggery. (and quite frankly, even giving a very sceptical benefit of the doubt over their actions, what were they thinking!).

Pete I do not know you personally and I certainly wasn't referring to your nor anyone on this forum.

Do you believe thatthere is absolutely no political agenda behind BLM in the UK..? I'd imagine that if you go onto UKIP or Britain First websites there will be similar statements attempting to distance themselves from racism, which are quite correctly called out for the bulllshit that they are...

To be honest, most of the people i know personally who have seemingly made it their 2nd job to push home BLM at every opportunity, do have (in my opinion) a hard-left-wing background and I believe they have a political agenda that goes over and above a simple (and quite right) hatred of racism...

In this country I'd say Blues Villa is one of the best/worst. I didn't think any of the other "big" English derbies come close to that.... And think there's more ferocity in lower league derbies...

Quite possibly I misunderstood! Barely had my eyes open when I read the post!!

The idea that Argentine derbies don't have passion because there are no away fans is insane. Of course it would be better if there were.... But they still piss over anything over here

The Rome Derby is heavy. Atmosphere was obviously very intense, but there was so much tension in the air. I actually thought Milan vs Juve was a better atmosphere overall (it was stunning). There's some insane derbies in Italy... Livorno vs Pisa.... Catania vs Palermo... The Genoa Derby...

Great stuff. I did same a few weeks ago (in fact I did 4 reps with 2mins rest), but was at about 5:50..... 5:30 is very impressive. Today's club session was 20 x 200mtrs, but to make it more race specific I did it on a rough and muddy downhill on the side of the old Astley Pit. Could only...

Your breathing will improve as you gain fitness... And the best way to do that is lots of steady running. In terms of controlling it in a race/timed effort/etc... It sounds simple, but you need to try and relax it and keep it controlled.

15.5 miles today round the Cov Canal, Foleshill, City Centre, Hillfields, Bell Green, Longford, and back to Bedworth... a scenic tour if you will... Approx 2hrs
