It's not like you have to upgrade your phone every year. People are on different upgrade cycles in which these devices will be a big upgrade.

Insurance must be the only industry that actively tries not to deliver the service that its customers pay them for.

I've decided to start getting up early on Sunday's so I can get an early morning run in, and finding the runs a struggle. I'm doing 10k (my longest ever run is only 11km) but they feel a lot more difficult than they do when I run at mid-day or the afternoon.

This Sunday I was up at 5:30, had an overnight oats breakfast, waited about 45 to 50 minutes and headded out for 7am. My legs felt stiff and my upper thighs a bit sore - maybe I need to do more on my warm up than I normally would do?

I've been wanting to start pushing past the 10km barrier and work for more but I really struggled, nearly gave up after 7km but just kept going. I'm glad I did but disappointed that I couldn't go further. Looking at Strava I've only done 9 runs that are 10km+ so maybe I'm being a bit hard on myself.

I did wonder if 10km was too short to have a gel, but I might consider it, at least for an early morning run. I haven't tried having a gel yet so maybe I just need to experiment.

I doubt any EU country, or even the US, would actually drag Putin before a court.

Why wouldn't they?

RVs are motorhomes that have an engine, gearbox etc. Caravan is something you tow behind another vehicle.

This post itself is mildly infuriating as I can't tell what's wrong in the picture!

I get my servants to hold one for me while I need it

Ran my first "early" (07:20 start) morning 10k on Sunday and it was hard work. I usually run at lunch time or in the afternoon and it just felt like my legs were made of stone, I was way off my usual pace.

Also not sure what to do about food at such an early time, especially when I want to start going longer than 10k. I obviously need something to eat but if I have too much then I'll have to wait a couple of hours to feel comfortable. I just had a single slice of jam on toast and it was probably enough until about 8 or 9k where I really started to flag. What do people do?

A lot of car parks are becoming like this. It's especially frustrating when you try to download the app but you have no signal and there's no other way to pay.

He reminds me a lot of Michael Gove

Apologies if this is a bit too much information!

I realised recently that my shorts have a netting like swimming shorts do and decided to ditch the boxers and see how it was. What an absolute game changer! I don't know why I didn't do this a year ago when I started running.
