Don't let running take over your life
Me, on a long run across Dartmoor. Photo: Joe KellyI was going to write about Grand Slam Track again this week, but I couldn’t quite summon the willpower.

Project Breaking-18 gathers pace
A scene from the Exeter 5KIt seems 5K is the new 100 miles. For me, anyway. My new running “project”. With a neat time goal and everything.It all started by accident, with a throwaway comment from Eoin Mack in Ireland, who joked that after running 1,400 miles around an entire country, people would want to know what I was doing next, and I’d probably say “parkruns”.At that moment, though, 60-odd days into the longest run I’d ever done, a parkrun did seem rather appealing.
