Activity Stream

Of those who've failed, some completed the round but in over 24hrs; some didn't start; some got X distance and stopped. On the basis that some who...

Southway circuits this evening, it was pretty hot. 6x450m; 85s, 90s, 91s, 88s, 92s, 93s. When I got home I decided to go stand in a bin full of...

12.12 miles, 3,318 feet, 3 hours 50 minutes: Rothay Bridge - Miller Bridge - Low Sweden Bridge - around the rock step - Low/High Pikes - High...

Number of actual starts would be very useful data. And for those who didn't complete - how far did they get?

Ah but that is people who register an attempt - it doesn't actually mean they started - which is data that I imagine doesn't exist, or if it does is...

If I were a contender for vet points like you are, I'd fancy my chances on Saturday. Just by lining up fully hydrated and with half a litre of water...

No more bike to work for a few months, articular cartilage problems persisting. I'll have to come back with a different approach in a few months, not...

For 15+ years it's been the same. The revenue from clubs has increased several fold, but as a revenue stream, it is still a small part of the...

7.51 miles, 2,148 feet, 2 hours 19 minutes: Wansfell Pike from 2 sides, including along the ridge to the true top, and descending next to the steps...

I am also fairly doubtful for Bradwell now, but I will wait until I see the weather forecast on Friday before making a decision. But this sort of...

Up Beacon Hill and back via Windmill Hill; a little over 61 minutes, so quite fast by recent standards. Going up a gravel track at a moderate incline...

Sadly this is also true of British Cycling.

11.8 miles, 1,240 feet, 2 hours 26 minutes: Rothay Bridge - Wray Castle - south along the lake - Coffin Trail - Wray Castle - Rothay Bridge. Sunshine...

I certainly don't want to pour scorn on the likes of UKA and EA, but from what i see, they seem solely concerned with trying to flog tickets for...

According to Steve Cram and Paula Radcliffe, whilst commentating on the Marathon over a week ago, Team England did not fill their quota in many...

For the first time I didn't watch much of the Games. Maybe it's me, but I found the timings and coverage a bit odd. I did catch a few of the track...

Sorry to hear that Llani. I'm still clinging to hope that i might make it. After a decent run in a similarly short race last weekend, it would be...

I will not be on the start line at Bradwell on Saturday now. Two reasons, the first being memories of Alderman's Ascent last year when it was far...

A steady recovery run this evening in my new Brooks Adrenalin tarmac shoes. A bit firmer ride than the New Balance but still very comfortable. ...

Across those years, the average rate for men and women completions is almost identical. 47.6% for men, 46.8% for women. This year has been a...

You are asking the wrong bloke! (or at least have got my name wrong :-) ) Prior to me taking over the membership role there's no actual numbers of...

9.29 miles, 3,021 feet, 2 hours 53 minutes: Wansfell Pike from 3 sides, including along the ridge to the true top, and up and down the race route...

I think the fact that yesterday was just supposed to be a tune-up race for Bradwell next weekend, and i wasn't expecting much in the way of a...

Mmmh. I think that neatly summarises the human condition.

Sorry to hear about the skin loss on your heels Travs. It is awful when your heels start to let you know they are in trouble, and yet there is that...

Bill what's the completion success percentage for women on the BG? I noted in 2020 (having done mine) that 6 women attempted and had 100% completion...

Thanks Llani.... I've had a look at the remaining N.Wales races, and its not feasible to try an assault on the champs... the next one i'm on...

Good to see you again Travs. When I finished I couldn't see you with the other finishers and then spotted you sat with your feet in the stream! I...

I wore my usual Inov8 socks. The issue was my choice of footwear... Most people went for less harsh shoes (the winner wore road shoes!) But I...
