If I'm getting stalked by dead relatives whenever I see the robins hanging around the garden I'm gonna have to start throwing stuff.] On topic, the bunch of around 30 runners tear-arsing around central Manchester paying no care to pedestrians. The fact they didn't hit me was more by luck than judgement.

Hills of Death (HOD) 20 Nov 3:41pm, 20 Nov 2024 37,364 posts	0 Hills of Death (HOD) When they say passed it’s like going to Derek Akora. They are dead that’s it. Also hate when people put recovery runs on ~~strava~~ and they are quicker than their races it’s not a F£&ing recovery it’s another race you dick.

The thing that's currently grinding my gears is Jason Koop's use of RecoveryRun, RunningIntervals, TempoRun etc. There's nothing cool or edgy about selective refusal to use your space bar, it's as tediously annoying as a toddler blowing a whistle.]
