How to master supreme comfort in uncomfortable times.

Bruce Pinnock
Full Of... Running

‘Best practice’, for running, includes: conquering uphill climbs, improving speed, and most importantly, using it as a convenient excuse to vacate the house before your mother-inlaw arrives. (Whoops! How did that get there? Quick! Delete that last comment before my wife sees it.)

For example, the other day I was watching a marathon on TV, hoping to gain insight into how best to improve my running.

Admittedly, I was doing so from the comfort of my bed. But before you judge me, consider the fact that long-distance races tend to start at arse-o-clock – most people are still tucked up at that time.
