Dick McKraken isn’t real, he is the split personality of someone more respectable. Husband & father (of kids & dogs). Amateur runner & professional Academic. Probably only 10% as funny as I think I am. @runningpunks
Hmm- I was always a ‘Legendary Punk’ for the #RU2C when I was on Twitter but I don’t see any mention of them on Bluesky. What’s your policy on defectors?

I do feel for those people who want to do it every year. I’ve done it a few times now & I’m happy maybe some new runners will get the experience. I hope it doesn’t get too difficult to get back into in the future (10+ unsuccessful years applying to London Marathon!)

Yep!

That's what she's going to say when I tell her!

I was in Rome a few months ago, and ran most mornings on the pedestrian/ cycle path along the river. Have to say I found it quite orderly. Didn’t do much running through the streets though!

Agreed- I have enjoyed all of Richard Askwith’s books
