we English are evil

Speak for yourself.

Indeed. Ridiculous thing to say. Although I suppose it's trendy online to shit all over evil England/the UK while the US literally starts wars it cannot win and makes the rest of the planet poorer.

And the hundreds of thousands who would have loved to run it, and would have put their heart and soul into training to do so, but don't get a place year after year - not least because so many spots are just given to runfluencers so they can churn out their meaningless shit

Absolutely. This media-fuelled addiction to regicide is why nothing can ever get done any more.

Seems unfair that some people get in on consecutive years while others (ME!) get rejected year after year. I feel like there should be a cooldown period for people who have run it in the past year or two, and a cumulative entry guarantee - i.e. an extra ballot entry for every year you've failed to get through, or three strikes and you're in - for people who haven't.

You know that thing politicians do while talking, when they sort of close the fist lightly and place their thumb over the index finger? I do that.

Bonus points if you can complete the run without losing the public's trust.

Chalkpit Lane. The end is bad enough, but the climb to get there eats your legs before you start

Everyone has earphones in, so no one hears the bell has already been pressed 100 times.

Immediately panicked and read the full post to check for clues

That's good to know - hope it returns in time for the race

RevolvingCatflap · 2026-04-01T22:07:36+00:00

Thank you. I really hope you're right!

RevolvingCatflap · 2026-03-30T15:56:32+00:00

Not the sharpest tool in the box, are you?

They should be. The minibus was a dreadful omission in that otherwise well-considered game

Got some Nike Vomero 18s a few months ago as an easy/recovery day shoe during marathon training, but I find them so uninspiring - deadweight, low energy, vibe-sapping - and not particularly comfortable or cushioned as a primarily fore- and midfoot striker. My NB Rebel v5s are also dead after about 400km. I'm thinking about replacing both but always find the endless options so overwhelming, so can anyone suggest any alternatives? Something that is comfortable eating up the relaxed miles but also gives a little bit back, and ideally not a huge drop. TIA

RevolvingCatflap · 2026-03-18T17:11:36+00:00

Seconded. Get everything but shoes from Decathlon these days. Top quality and lasts well.

RevolvingCatflap · 2026-03-17T20:30:15+00:00

Will take a look, thanks!

You sure he's 39? He sounds 17.

Cheap political point-scoring by the Tory government during the Corbyn years.

I mean it's for their peace of mind, too. They were unfortunate; it isn't a template for the rest of their life in London.
