We all love having fresh kicks to run in, and there’s possibly an argument that a lot of people that are now into running first got into it because of the footwear hype. Money, It’s gotta be the shoes?! However, I think a lot of people mistakenly overlook the importance of investing in good running […]
Are you a runner?
So, are you a runner? I get asked this question a lot and to be honest I never really know how to answer it. I like to run, sometimes I love to run and sometimes I want to do something else, it sort of depends on what goals I’ve set myself and what mood I’m in. […]
adidas launch the adizero Prime Boost
Knitted footwear has proven to be pretty popular amongst the style conscious runners amongst us (I am a fully signed up member to the style before safety philosophy). It fits the performance bill, is allegedly more eco-friendly (based on more efficient methods of production) and looks HELLA FRESH! But what’s special about the adizero Prime Boost? […]
Peak Performance – The 1988 100m Final
The 1988 100m final. Probably the best Olympic 100m final there has ever been in terms of star power, anticipation, spectacle, showmanship, character and controversy.

getting my stride back.
There are fewer things this Scouse Amsterdammer likes more than the feeling of getting my stride back. Getting my stride back, is the feeling I get when after a couple of kilometers at a steady pace, I’m still feeling as good as I did when I was stretching outside my house, setting up my Nike+, […]
Ciele Athletics
We’ve had our eyes peeled (so to speak) on Ciele Athletics for a little while now. Based in Montreal, Canada, these young cats have been working on a solid product that is a welcome addition to a small range of brands that deliver in both style and performance, something that our culture so desperately needs more […]
