My goal is 2 hours and I am following a "My Asics" program. I really like the plan although some jogs seem...

    Official Running Thread

    I should have read this a bit earlier as I ran upto and including the Wednesday before. However for a 10K maybe not quite so important. I wanted to finish in under an hour and did it in 55 mins so was well happy. I even managed a sprint finish, well it felt like a sprint finish :-)

    How about beating Tottenham 2-1 back in April 1983 Gatting & Ryan. I think we were down to 10 men! I recall listening on Radio whilst on holiday at Butlins!

    "Move back to Britain - No way" - any other Albion ex-pats seen Telegraph article

    How Long Do You Leave It In?

    I don't have milk to my tea (or coffee). I do though add a few drops of lime juice from a fresh lime. This takes away the bitterness, I don't do sugar in tea or coffee.
