Running History: Gordon Pirie
|
| |
Thought I'd share this with ya'll: [link] Gordon Pirie originally wrote it (it's a short read), and Dr. John Gilbody had it on gordonpirie.com. I came across it when I first started running and I found it to be inspirational as Pirie was clearly a runner who was very confident and one who beat Zatopek. The... more »

Barns Green Half Marathon Race Report
|
| |
I took most of the year off running, concentrating on cycle racing, with barely a couple of runs a month (generally a 3mile all out race, and a hill session) but I was doing lots of hard cycling miles. 8 weeks ago, I switched jobs to one with a commute (basically the contract was on-site rather than off) and combined with the end of the... more »

Snowdon Marathon - great fun
|
| |
Hi all, just mentioned the Vibram Five Fingers in another thread having seen them at Snowdon on a bloke running. I entered Snowdon as many had recommended it to me after a good run of ultras and marathons. I wasn't prepared as well as I could have been running only once a week and found it a tough challenge. I over cooked... more »

Anyone here running in this year's MCM ? I've done it twice - and had a blast. Be interested to hear how this year's race goes.

iNtervalTunes - iPhone App
|
| |
If you have never heard of iNtervalTunes and you listen to your iPod Touch or iPhone while running, then you should look up this software. It lets you create a workout and create a playlist for each interval. Moreover, the intervals are flexible in order, length, and has a flexibility found in no other interval/timer related exercise... more »

So who's experimenting with Vibram Five Fingers?
|
| |
Been running in mine for about a month now and really enjoying them. I would prefer to run fully barefoot but that would exclude me from nearly all the trails that I enjoy running on so the VFFs are a reasonable compromise. Ultimately I'd like to imitate the Tamahumara and run ultras in them but I'm... more »
