Dog walk musings. Today there are a plethora of races and formats to play with. Back in the early 90s there were much fewer opportunities to have organised fun. The race brochure for the first M dot race in the UK profiled all 5 IM races on the go. Yes 5. No Challenge, No PT100..no social media nada. So what's your favourite race format?

We are once again partnering with the team at Still Going Strong to deliver coaching and support for this and this year the Go Swim series. If you fancy a hit at any of their events let us know..discount codes incoming.

Went for a run up Arthur’s Seat this morning and whilst we are soon coming out of the darkness in March, thought I should have taken my head torch today. Mine is pretty ropey, bargain basement job, any suggestion on torches that are comfy, decent beam and don’t cost as much as a wetsuit? That aside it was pretty busy up there this morning!
