    Very tempted by this myself! I know some people in and around Carlisle who've done it. I've done some of the Hadrian's Wall route (in the other direction though) but would love to do this. Hope the injury clears up quickly for you - it's frustrating but I guess you've got plenty of time before...

    That's amazing mate! Yeah, strength work is really important for these mega runs for a couple of really good reasons: * You're at heightened risk of injury and strength work is proven to reduce that; * It makes you more efficient by addressing muscle imbalances, improving form and increasing...

    I love reading about your running mate. I agree with OB's comments. Emphasis on the 'gently.' The advice is to increase your total weekly mileage (or kilometrage, whatever!) by no more than 10% each week. Also, give yourself lower-mileage recovery weeks as needed. And most importantly, enjoy!

    All-In-One Consoles - Are They Any Good?

    This one, for example: https://shopgamelab.com/products/all-in-one-gamelab-console It's very cheap and claims to have 15,000 retro games. Worth 40 quid? Are the games properly playable? Any pros and cons?

    Happy Sunday everyone. We've been talking a lot about injuries recently (sorry - my fault!). So I've put together some thoughts in this new video on the FLF channel. I'd be interested in hearing your views - we've already had some amazing insights from blues in the Facebook group. 3d...

    Sharing a few thoughts on the price of 'super shoes' and whether or not it's worth spending silly money on the latest models... Cheaper super shoes = faster runs?

    Jamaica/Cuba - Cat5 Hurricane Melissa - aftermath vid P5

    Absolutely terrible for the people of Jamaica. Imagine knowing that you are in the path of this. You can only hope that the warning has been enough for them to be sufficiently prepared, if that is possible. As a side note, here is an article on the 'hurricane hunter' planes...

    Match Thread | Aston Villa vs. Manchester City (26/10/25)

    OK, so it's not the end of the world BUT we'd like to see an effort from City and we'd prefer to win the game, if that's OK with you? Hopefully a stern word and a bit of finger-pointing at half time and a better second half...

    Dublin sounds like a great event Gaz. Can't wait to hear how you get on. If you're not currently in peak form, is this one about enjoying the experience? The be sure (to be sure) to celebrate with a Guinness or two. I think the achilles is starting to feel like it's on the mend, but I won't be...

    How's everyone getting on as it gets darker and colder? I guess it's not properly cold yet, but it will be soon. I've done basically nothing since I did my achilles in. I'm very pissed off about this as I really want to be getting in good shape. I've decided to try out the bike and see if that...

    Done my achilles. I'm very pissed off about this! Strength work and bike for a bit, methinks.
