Embryonic signs of a return to running after a ridiculously persistent soleus injury that emerged lasy May. I have been pretty active nevertheless.

Nice.

Unfortunately, power and ambition corrupt politicians on both the left and right. Face it, at best, they're all "We're a bit of a c*** party" parties.

What's worse than a 15-mile TT?

Yes, a case of 'if you can't beat him, join him' ... she started running mid-50s and joined HPH last year.
