There will be no intervals

14 May 2020

Great news! The £31 beer arrived today. My strategy of ordering Verdant beer bang on release time at 10:30 am on Wednesday is working out well. It arrived in less than 24 hours, which is pretty impressive by anyone’s standards. It went straight into the fridge and I’m currently enjoying a cold can of ‘There will be no intervals’ which is a Mosai... Read more

I managed 3km in about 50mins I felt very, very ill afterwards. Not exactly my finest moment. But now, I’ve once again committed to a gym membership! ... Read more
