Inadequate runners. Update.

Update for Team Sano. I didn't win the marathon but I did manage to do it without walking. 4 hours 33 minutes.

The BMX man

Two weeks ago it was insanely hot weather. My first cyclo-cross race of the season was in Manchester and with the temp at 29degrees it was basically an off road crit. As usual I only got my shit together at the last minute and never packed my bibshorts and top. This didn't really bother me cos I normally ride in my Levi's, but it did make me stand out from the skinsuits and lycra. As the laps went by some kids in the pits spotted my United t-shirt and started shouting for 'the BMX man'.

Inadequate runners

I'm doing the Liverpool Marathon on 9th October. Eight weeks ago I had to buy myself some new pumps to run in. I bought some Mizuno Wave Riders based on the funky sounding name which was as good a reason as any to me.
There is nothing fun about running long distances and the state of me after doing an 18 mile run doesn't fill me with confidence for doing 26 miles.

Julian & John, Belle & Sebastian

This is how I'm rollin' at the mo. Under the influence of Anti-hero and Scottish indie pop. The touring bars with a sweep in them are helping my neck out when I'm ridin'

Liverpool has no dress code

I love a character, someone who is treading their own path even if it is in 5inch heels. This dude is prove not everyone in Liverpool wears a trackie or North Face.

Gentlemans Pistols

Listen to the Gent's. Go and see the Gent's. Amazin'

Eddie, Eddie, Eddie!!!

Another week, another over the top gig. Scream for me Manchester, Scream for me! Iron Maiden. It was everything that I hoped for and expected. The Trooper, Number Of The Beast, 2 Minutes to Midnight, Running Free, lights, action, a 15 foot tall, guitar playing Eddie The Ed and a 30 foot Final Frontier Eddie. As stupid as they are brilliant, classic metal, dads and their lads rockin' together.
