Footballers sometimes get a bad press so this is a heartwarming story.

Just seen this on one of the Bradford City FB pages. Class that from the club and from Kelly! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 #bcafc #bantams

If I had known there was going to be so much interest in my reply I’d have mentioned that I still have a few copies of my book left about my solo LEJOG run. GBP 10 + pp PM me if interested

Same company staged a race on 18th May in my area. Some of the signs were still in place a month later. Took them down myself in the end. Not really good enough wen their entry fees are so ridiculously expensive

Many years ago a member of my club, Bingley Harriers died of a sudden heart attack. John Taylor was an international fell and XC runner so it was quite a shock. A fund was set up in his memory to help young athletes so it’s wonderful to see this. Thank You👏 @amberanning 🥉

So many individuals and organisations have helped my daughter, @amberanning, on her journey to Paris. A huge shoutout to her athletics club and all the charities and grant-givers who believed in Amber from her early teens to becoming an @Olympics medalist. Forever grateful 🙏🏾.

Great performance by @EmileCairess what an amazing effort. Well run young man. Roll on L.A. 🥇


Enjoying watching Bradford’s own @EmileCairess in leading group of Olympic Marathon at 27K. Feed on a diet of Yorkshire Hills and European XC silver medalist he has a great chance. Go Emile👏🤞🥇


A day in life of one of the World’s leading middle distance coaches. Keeping it real. Go Faster Feet Team. Do him proud.

How do coaches spend their day leading up to an Olympic final? Doing laundry 🧺 whilst also compiling statistics 📉 ahead of having two women in the 1500m heats the following morning 🙈 #wontbegettingmuchsleep #M11trackclub @Faster_feet



This is the most sensible summary of the Women’s Olympic Boxing issue I’ve read.

... but failure to do this reflects on the authority and integrity of the organisation of competition. However much the IOC might try to wriggle, there really is no ethical wriggle room. (end)

BBC Olympics coverage has now officially lost the plot. We'll cut away from this knife-edge tennis final between the two best players in the world to the parallel bars where some Briton you've never heard of might come fifth.

Occasionally, just when I think the world cannot get any more fucking ridiculous, I see something like this and realise just how wrong I was.

RIP Joss.

Last pilgrimage for our hero. The colours of hundreds of club runners grateful for the inspiration and encouragement. A reminder in the service to use our sport for charitable good as well as for ourselves, just like he did. Thank you for everything #JossNaylor



So sad to learn if Joss Naylor’s passing. Legend is an overused term but not in his case. A remarkable man who never lost the human touch. RIP Joss.

R.I.P Joss Naylor 🙏 One of the greatest Fell Runners ever & a lovely man #fellrunning

It’s a matter of days now until stage 4 of the Tour de France passes through the Col du Galibier, and it’s not yet clear of last winter’s snow. 📷 Strava / Julien Dussuchale

My 2 most recent books have had far less reviews than all the others so far. If you have read either/both of these would you consider doing one on Amazon (or elsewhere). For 'less profile' authors they are important for getting books out there before as many eyes as possible. TIA

Sent my book to MD @VertebratePub today. I have received so much Good feedback from the 480 who bought it I’m hoping to persuade VP to sell it for me on their Adventure Books Platform. Hope you enjoy reading it John.


Good Luck to my club mate @jonny_brownlee as he races young pretenders Sam Dickerson and Hugo Milner in Poland today for a place in the team for Paris. You’re the man JB. Give em hell… Do it for Yorkshire 💪
