Haway the Lads! Great to watch us win at Wembley with the old man. God knows we’ve seen enough disappointment in the last few years. Onwards and upwards! #safc #wereonourway #htl

It’s VMLM week and we LOVE running, so @RWPearson has written four songs about it. Yes, songs. First up is one about Pheidippides, the original marathon runner. The full EP (LOL), The History of the Marathon, will be available to listen to on Spotify this Friday. Stay tuned.

Very sorry to hear that Ron Hill has passed away. A great athlete and true pioneer who gave so much to running throughout his life. Not sure his 52-year run streak will ever be beaten! His legacy will live on. RIP Ron.
