Zwift curious .....
Hi all, Anyone using Zwift here? I've a turbo trainer for when the weather is truly awful and I'm wondering if using Zwift would make cycling indoors less boring. Would be great to hear your thoughts on it.

Sites offering rewards for being active
Saw an advert on FB yesterday for something called Cycling Heroes, a website that links to all the usual GPS tracking sites and then awards you points for activity which can then be spent on rewards from partners. There also seems to be a running one from the same people and also plenty of others in the same vein. Does…

Life of running shoes?
How long do you keep yours? And do you go on age, distance or a combination of both? Just noticed mine have hit 400km and can't remember when I bought them so they must be at least 3 years old. Time for some sales shopping maybe?

Exercise not key to losing weight - BBC
Interesting article here from the BBC which is a bit 'tabloid' in it's title and seems to have missed the point entirely - what do you think? There's the usual piece on calorie deficit = weight loss but I think another important message has been lost in that it's not only about eating to a calorie target, it's about a…

Just got a road bike!
Figured I'd add some variety and do a bit of road riding too, got the bike sorted but do I need a new wardrobe too? Or are my MTB baggies ok? Currently thinking they could act as a parachute :) Pick the bike up at the weekend so any tips on pedals/shoes/etc much appreciated!

I do have a couple of questions though - what happens when I go for a run? do I just leave it to it and not log the run as it'll count my steps? I'd rather use HRM…

Happy Tuesday!
Yes, I know the weather's terrible and Friday seems like a lifetime away, but I buried myself on the turbo trainer last night and have woken up feeling great and generally positive about the world. So I thought I'd share the love and hopefully make this dull Tuesday a little brighter for everyone.

Nike + GPS
Hi All, Anyone else use this? I've been looking for a better gps logger that'll give me a bit more analysis on pace and speed (i.e. split by mile) rather than the overall figure for the whole run, from what I can make out the App is backed up through their website too. I'd just be using the App rather than the shoe sensor.…

Hi all
Hello, Arrived here via the phone app that got recommended for being great at keeping an eye on calories and I reckon it can't hurt to say hi and hopefully get a bit of additional support as you can never have enough! I do a fair bit of exercise, mountain biking, horse riding and badminton mainly but I never manage to…
