Harry Winks to Cagliari permanent - Official

Was the truth behind the fallouts ever posted or have people just ran with something that they believed was true? Were the finer details of his contract shared or is all share based on an assumption? The comments on his IG post blow my mind….grown adults calling him a cnut etc. Anyway, semi decent player and I hope he does well in Italy. -

His wife is a phenomenal runner! She runs for Birstall and was first female finisher in the last Leicestershire Road Running League race. -

I’ve got wide feet and the Vaporfly fit like a slipper. I’m normally a size 5 and always order 6.5 in Nike. -

My favourite EVER race! It’s my second fastest 10K course. No racing for me until the 28/6 and the fabulous Round Sheffield Round and then nothing until GNR for me. -

I’m eyeing up the deviate nitro elite 4’s but not sure if it’s just because they look nice or if it’s because they are a fast shoe. -

Footpath is your friend here! -
Oxford allocation is wrong. If memory serves me correctly the allocation was circa 1250 this last season.

That’s what we both said it just felt very well Leicester and all a bit of a last minute flung together shindig. The half time ‘DJ’ was so bad! Still, an hour with the teenager who got some fresh air
-
We left after an hour as it was such an anticlimax. Only highlight for me was Demari Gray - such a lovely chap who had time for everyone and Birch. Birch spoke to fans as if he knew you. Genuine top bloke.

Well. I started nearly 2 minutes behind the tailwalker as there was no way I was running without sanitising my hands! The tree roots are a real trip hazard and I’m surprised that there’s no one near those spots. But yeah, it’s crowded, very ‘run club’ and it doesn’t help when people are running/walking 4 across the path. -

If you’re a fan of fast and flat then make your way to Victoria Embankment parkrun in Nottingham. I hated every single step of it as it’s not my type of course however some will love it. A bit of advice though…..find a supermarket/McDonalds toilet as their ‘toilets’ are two portaloos which is awful for 700+ runners. Oh, and if you s*** your pants, be a hero and bin them and not leave them in said portaloo. -

They are amazing! The little green bars are also fantastic and were my fuel for my last marathon. -
Yup, I’m in Hinckley and it seemed to go on forever! The thunder shook our house on a couple of occasions

parkrun at Clumber Park was perfect this morning! A little warm in places but the shade from the trees and the wind on the way back was spot on. Not looking forward to tomorrow’s 7 miler - think it’ll be a 5am job otherwise I’ll die. -

I ran in Italy the other summer and it was 29 degrees at parkrun. It was awful but they had Prosecco at the finish so it balanced itself out! -

I’d love to do the Dragons Back! I’ve dabbled very much at entry level with a 32 miler (first half of London to Brighton), Manchester to Liverpool (50 miles) and have The Lap (47 miles) and Race to the Stones (full 100K) for next year. My dream is to complete a 100 miler but I’m not sure that this 47 year old mum could do it! I know age isn’t a barrier however the head isn’t the best. -

West Ham are gone. Those first 20 or so minutes were ludicrous as they never got out of their own half. -
The teenager cried! She said she held it together until the April 2025 and having to re-live him leaving. I cried as it all still seems so surreal. It also reminded me how glad I am that my brother (the only boy out of 4) hated football and that my dad dragged me along one Christmas to stand in the Kop at Filbert Street. Without out that I wouldn’t have this deep, insane love, for little Leicester City
-
Seeing the joy on Vichai’s face and being able to see how much he loved this club hit me a bit. And just seeing ‘that’ team. Even now it still doesn’t seem possible that a bunch of flung together misfits and nobodies achieved what they did. It also reminded me of the love that I have for the badge.

I’d not long had my second child and was at home listening on the radio. Gutted I missed it

Anyone here doing this years GNR? I’ve never done it before however I was offered a place through Bodie Hodges today! Any feedback? -

I’m a huge advocate for ‘fit and feel’. If they fit your feet well and feel ok when you run then they are the shoe for you. -
Was about to say the same! Hinckley has been taken over by the highlighter orange £1 monzo shirts crew.
-
Liquidator? The same as a few other clubs

I don’t regret it at all. I was an overweight total non runner who ended up with a London marathon ballot place. Not exaggerating by saying this….it totally changed my life
