Nice one

Managed a full week's running last week, first time since early December. No long one on Saturday (legs too tired), but an enjoyable first off-road...

Rhubarb ginger and custard tart - made by my partner - yummy! The custard did not quite set in the centre, but it was still delicious.

Yeah, I've got an entry for this. Had assumed it'd be binned, but the closer it gets without any news I guess the more likely it is to go ahead.

We've been without TV in our household since 2013. Good for our family life. TV license here in Germany still compulsory I'm afraid.

All Creatures Great and Small is back on...BBC4 on thursday night. They all look so young. I didn't realise Tristan Farnan was such a cock.

38m loop on the bike today. I shortened down from 44 due to an increase in plica soreness. Kex Gill makes me very angry. The flow sessions are...

Perfect running weather for todays solitary outing. A foray into the easterly Staffordshire Moorlands. Starting at The Butchers Arms at Reaps Moor...

It's probably already a slow motion car crash, Stolly, you just don't know it yet. I can see you making all the same mistakes that brought me to my...

Our monthly takeaway Sunday lunch from the Lathkil Hotel today. Roast pork with perfect crackling. Delicious. However there was a bonus. When I...

13 miles/800ft cross-country this morning, and a gentle 3.5 miles this evening. Brings weekly total to 68 miles, which is fairly pleasing given i had...

I watched the entire 50km cross-country skiing this afternoon, was absolutely superb.

Excellent work getting 6 Fs in there :) Well done to all involved, it made me laugh

More signs of spring with woodpeckers hammering away in Great Farley wood on this morning's run.

A veritable feast of wildlife on my cross-country run in the area between Coventry and Birmngham. Spotted a Buzzard, Sparrowhawk, also what i...

John - do you mean the actual Lakeland 50, or the Spring in to Lakeland 50? I'm told the latter is cancelled (I had an entry but withdrew when they...

17 hill reps, 51km, 1009m, 2:43 Looking at next 4th July. I'm due to be in the dolomites for 138km 4230m. Not sure how I can prepare here in...

Fantastic. We have a race. Fellbeast's Fearsome Fountains Fell Furlongs and Fathoms. When shall we have it. First of February ;)

I could RO :) If you know where to look there’s a couple of bogs on Fountains Fell that could easily be measured in fathoms. And the straight up...

Just got one. Fountains Fell Furlongs and Fathoms. Just need a RO now!

Your ideas, Noel and Moley, could be the basis and name of a new fell race. All we need is a suitable hill or village beginning with the letter F.

I like the idea, for all bike races held on British soil, ascent/descent measured in fathoms? That should sort Jonny foreigner out, never know where...

Furlongs is the way to go.
