  Can't tell if intentionally ironic or completely lacking self-awareness...

  I'm just going to DREDGE this thread up from 12 years back! What's people's plans for watching the game? Any Spuds planning a North / East London pub trip?

  Thanks! Some good posts on there. I'm actually looking for a new app to use for training plans. I failed to mention that in my post.

  I've used Runkeeper to generate half marathon training plans and then my runs (it's good for all that data), but the plan is totally inflexible once you start it and I find them a bit light-weight and simple.

  Has anyone used both Strava and Runkeeper training plans? I'm using Runkeeper but want to try something else. Any other recommendations?

  I didn't enjoy the changes to the Hackney Half route this year. The new bits seem to add more short, narrow streets with more twists and turns. Apparently they've upped the number of participants to 25,000 and it really felt like it at times.

  @dubkev well done for sticking it out after being ill. You looked fucked when i saw you around the 5m mark. Did @salmonchild run too?

  Yeah mine was from a locked fifth floor balcony at night. They could only have gotten in from the open balcony on the floor above, then lowered the bikes down. Mad skills!

  I found the shitty beater bike on gumtree shortly after and forced the police to take it back by threatening to visit the guy myself with a bunch of friends. Never got my TI Raleigh Team back, but insurance paid out enough to soften the blow.

  Surely they're just parading Janssen in front of the cameras to try to provoke some sort of transfer interest? He was on the bench last week too. Is he of any practical use other than as a training ground dummy or has the Sheriff worked another miracle of Levy's no-transfer policy and made him first team ready?

  THIS is a great help, thanks v. much.

  She's using Cycle to work for the purchase, so i think she needs to buy from an actual bike shop, unless you know otherwise?

  I've found the 'easy guide' with all the options. More straight-forward than I thought.
