November is always a tricky month for me. It's the end of the hill climbing season, the winter months are stretching out in front of me, it's difficult to motivate myself not to overeat because there's nothing worth training for in the near future. I'd like to get some more running done, but it's too dark in the mornings and invariably wet and muddy in the lanes.

I'd like to get some more running done, but it's too dark in the mornings and invariably wet and muddy in the lanes.

I started to get into running about 35 years ago. The first few weeks half killed me but eventually I built up enough fitness to start enjoying it.

That enjoyment was brought to a sudden stop one dark autumn evening though when I sprinted round a bend on an unlit lane and planted one foot on the edge of a huge unseen pothole. I fell heavily. I had twisted the ankle so badly that my entire foot and leg up to my shin went purple, black and blue by the next day. I had discomfort in that ankle for several years after that and never got back into running.

Recently, I have been considering trying low impact slow 'shuffle running' in the local park. There is a 1 km path round the park itself, and a great network of paths up the wooded hillside immediately adjacent to the back of the park.

Are you B riders squads looking for another member?

The young lad I mentioned a week or so has become available.

Hes a heavyweight with 350W for 30 mins.

PM me on how he can join your team.

Ta Andy

Suspect he might be above b development level but If not could ask for our team. Certainly sounds like an asset

I'll check if there's an easy way to tell what cat you are without doing maths because that's all I can see below. I'll WhatsApp the team lead just so I don't go above anyone's head because it's not actually our team
