Question.... Blog, in which house did I live as a youngster - which lane did we have to walk up, which snicket did we have to walk down to get to our lavatory [a clue:- it is next to the pig sty. Blog, I kid you not] … and we did not use a soft tissue toilet roll - was there such a thing in those days Blog??? So which national newspaper did we employ???
It must have been a bit of a thwart household at the Radcliffe's two weekends ago …… ?? First Paula loses her marathon record and then, on the Sunday. her husband's charge doesn't do too well in the Chicago marathon. Perhaps Mo Farah was on a 'GO SLOW' out of sympathy with Salazar????
Mind you, I didn't think Paula performed too well on TV when the news of Salazar broke. Both her and Cram must have got a few splinters in their respective bums????
It will be interesting to see what Black's new job is, perhaps he will follow a few other(s) from the UK hierarchy to pastures west.
Isn't there a quote somewhere saying something about the hand which feeds you. Goodness knows what that is all about. I don't know, just sounded good??
And of course, Coventry University are as organised as ever. Next year's Coventry Half Marathon. organised by them, clashes as it does with the National Relays and the Coventry Way 40 mile route around Coventry. I suppose the only saving grace is that the Half Marathon appeals to the jogger and the fitness conscious rather than the keen athlete who has aspirations in the athletics' world rather than being content in 'DOING' a half marathon per sec --- I fully expected that such event as the Half Marathon would have been given a real boost when it was announced last year that Coventry was to become the European City of Sport 2019. That has been a bit of a joke, has it not???? What do you think, Blog???? No real cash has been splashed and nowt fresh has occurred - still time yet methinks! Or not!
