http://go-feet.blogspot.com/2015/05/mental-training-free-your-mind-and-your.html
A blog about running, its history and culture. Sunday, 10 May 2015. Mental Training: Free your mind and your ass will follow. In her book 'A Life without limits', triathlete and four times World Ironman Champion Chrissie Wellington discusses the importance of mental training in athletics: 'You wouldn't go into a race without any physical training, so why would you go in without any mental? The latter reminds me of a meditation technique I was once taught by Adrian Harris called 'Strawberries'. Chrissie r...

Go Feet: What is the fastest parkrun in SE London? And how much difference does the course make?
http://go-feet.blogspot.com/2015/07/what-is-fastest-parkrun-in-se-london.html
A blog about running, its history and culture. Friday, 31 July 2015. What is the fastest parkrun in SE London? And how much difference does the course make? But can we quantify how much difference a course makes? On the median measure, Greenwich still appears to be the toughest course. Southwark Park is now the fastest, with Dulwich slipping into second. Burgess is now faster than Brockwell Park which I would expect. But I certainly don't believe that Hilly Fields is faster than Peckham Rye -...To exclud...

http://go-feet.blogspot.com/2015/07/house-every-weekend-running-in-ladywell.html
A blog about running, its history and culture. Monday, 27 July 2015. House Every Weekend - running in Ladywell. The video for House Every Weekend, David Zowie's summer UK number one single, features some great dancing but also the figure of a runner making his way through London streets. But which London streets? See/hear also: 120 Seconds Over Ladywell Fields. 28 July 2015 at 23:30. Looks like Malyons Rd to me; hes running down from the park towards Ladywell Road. You can just make out 159 on one of...

A blog about running, its history and culture. Thursday, 13 August 2015. Charlie Dark - falling back in love with London via running. Lots of interesting reflections on running from Charlie Dark, founder of Run Dem Crew, in his recent Ted talk 'it's not how fast you go, it's how you cross the finish line'. I particularly liked his comments about how taking up running changed his relationship with London:. Labels: Run Dem Crew. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Follow Go Feet on Facebook.

Go Feet: Running in The Railway Children
http://go-feet.blogspot.com/2015/07/running-in-railway-children.html
A blog about running, its history and culture. Friday, 24 July 2015. Running in The Railway Children. The Railway Children - both Edith Nesbit's 1906 novel and the 1970 film adaption of it - feature a paperchase/hare and hounds race in the north of England. As mentioned here before. Let me pass, please." It was the hare—a big-boned, loose-limbed boy, with dark hair lying flat on a very damp forehead. The bag of torn paper under his arm was fastened across one shoulder by a strap. The ch...In South East L...

Go Feet: Running with Herons
http://go-feet.blogspot.com/2015/08/running-with-herons_3.html
A blog about running, its history and culture. Monday, 3 August 2015. My pleasant London Sunday long run yesterday included heading up to the Tower of London to watch cyclists go by in their thousands in the RideLondon-Surrey 100 mile event. As well as enjoying the spectacle, associated road closures meant that Tower Bridge was devoid of traffic and I was able to run across it in the middle of the road like it was mile 12 of the London Marathon all over again. Heron on Burgess Park lake. Go Feet is a blo...
