    Relax everybody. If CL chooses to disagree with the accepted opinion of almost everything then let him, it's a free country etc. Just don't try to persuade him he's wrong. Or if you do don't get upset when you can't . Enjoy the debate.....after all he may be right!

    Welcome to the weird and wonderful world of Mr Leigh's mind... you never quite know where it's going to take you but it's always an interesting ride.

    I used to get stressed and overly exasperated by him but now just enjoy his nuttiness and it's taking me ever nearer to Master status.

    I am enjoying the debate. It's been a few years since I got to teach Physics and basic scientific principles to someone.

    Jeepers what a waste of 5 minutes of my life . Like most things that CL posts about I think he's more or less right or at least more right than wrong; I doubt that Usain Bolt does much long distance chugging but I'm sure he does do an awful lot of running in short spurts at full pelt. Ditto I suspect that Paula Radcliffe does an awful lot of long distance stuff but at an uncomfortably hard pace most of the time.

    I on the other hand don't give a flying duck and just run as often and as far as I like at whatever pace I want to. To me its all about being in the hills, with running being my preferred method of transporting myself around them.

    For those who are interested in the said duck, it is always helpful if statments of assertion can be clarified if requested

    I do believe that there is a massive all encompassing conspiracy.

    Philisophical? As in philistine or philosophical. That was a Freudian slip I reckon.

    The 13.1 miles that I did in the Birmingham half marathon on Sunday were junk miles (never really got going, never felt good but body not really stressed). Or have I missed the point?
