Short Update | The Beirut Taxi
https://thebeiruttaxi.wordpress.com/2015/07/01/short-update
Not about taxis in Beirut – but close. 100km Del Passatore – what went right and what went wrong? July 1, 2015. The hiatus here hasn’t been for any catastrophic running or life changing reason (like dropping dead during an ultra marathon) but only because the number of plates I’ve had to spin in the last month makes me fit to qualify as a circus performer. (I’d like to think ringmaster but I suspect clown is what you’re thinking). Recovery was rapid with a few days of DOMS (sore legs) and then I was fine...

Not about taxis in Beirut – but close. The Hobo life →. 100km Del Passatore – what went right and what went wrong? August 5, 2015. It’s been just over 2 months since I (to use an Americanism) “crushed” my PB time in the 100km del Passatore in Italy by a whopping 47 minutes but I have remained silent – which for me is some achievement. During my recent summer holidays (where I ended up running with both cracked ribs and a damaged toe – another story! I think I suffered a pretty massive failure of my centr...

Not about taxis in Beirut – but close. Newer posts →. March 20, 2016. If you’ve stumbled on this blog in the past few weeks you’d be forgiven for thinking that it’s all about the running. Like most people who have an unhealthy interest in anything that might attract the anorak brigade (stuff involving men standing around talking in hobby-shorthand about their shared passion), you will eventually realise, if you get deep enough into the hobby, that its not about the running. No, not really. But a comb...

The Hobo life | The Beirut Taxi
https://thebeiruttaxi.wordpress.com/2015/08/07/the-hobo-life
Not about taxis in Beirut – but close. 100km Del Passatore – what went right and what went wrong? Hobo life – runs 1 and 2 →. August 7, 2015. This blog is supposed to be about running so I normally try and intertwine the more interesting aspects of life (i.e. everything but running) in and around this subject. If you’ve read other posts on here you’ll soon realise that the link between the “I put on my running shoes and ran 10 miles” and the real content can be fairly tenuous. And much more of the. The h...

Speed Wobble | The Beirut Taxi
https://thebeiruttaxi.wordpress.com/2015/05/28/speed-wobble
Not about taxis in Beirut – but close. Short Update →. May 28, 2015. Before we start this post – a bit about the title. A speed wobble – also called a tank slapper – is a motorcycle racing term that refers to the a sudden loss of control where the front end (the handle bars and front wheel) decides to snake and squirm. It often occurs when you hit a bump in the road. It’s called a tank slapper because the ends of the handlebars slap off the tank in a fairly violently. How will the race go? After a mile a...
