    Advice please for a newbie.....I started running about a year ago with two 5km runs a week. Sometimes a bit further and some weeks 3 times. Weekends are for cycling. This past weekend I did my first 10km race and finished with a time of 1:02. I see it as a start somewhere. My question now - I want to become faster - a lot faster. My aim is to do a 10km in 50min by end of January. Will this be possible and what training must I do to achieve this?

    You all seems to be pro oval. I like the oval, but when I stand and padal it feels like there is a dead spot...exactly what the oval is supposed to remove. Anyone with the same experience?

    Another question: The main reason for starting running is to train in a limited time during the week. You guys doing cycling and running - how will running improve my cycling? EmptyB said it improved his cycling pace and climbing - what is the rest of your experiences?

    I am also a newbie... Started running in October for the first time in my life, I started run/walk 2km and upped gradually. I can do now 8km comfortable but I am VERY SLOW. When I started my knees gave me a bit of a niggle, but I think it was the change of exercise. My two questions: 1) I want to run for 3 days in a row, but some advise that I got was that it will only hurt my knees and that I must skip a day. What is your opinions on this? 2) As I said - I am really slow. Must I just keep doing my (aiming for 10km) till I get faster in time? or Must I try to push myself to go faster? or Must and when do I start doing intervals (as that seems the thing to do to up you speed)?

    Thank you for the reply. I will definitely make use of your offer to made up bibs for us with the old padding. This is what I call good service! Thanks.

    As a lady I feel that the anatomic bibs WERE by far the best fit and padding, but recently you change the pink padding to a new red version. According to your office the red padding is only a reverse from the pink - I differ. The red is not so comfortable, much 'warmer' and it feels much more sweaty. It is really sorry as I (and my female cycling friends) will now have to find a new bib that will give us the same comfort as your previous range.

    Can you see what others predictions are?

    I think the problem here lies with society. People do not take responsibility for their own actions and tend to blame (sue) others. The decision of CTCT was to cover themselves because people nowadays cannot think for themselves and live with the consequences.

    I have never interacted or met Barry, but somehow are deeply touched by his death. After reading all the comments and remembrance of him it make me want to be a better person. RIP Barry

    It is the first time I want to bake something on LCHF .... is Flaxseed Powder the same as flaxseeds that I mill in my coffee grinder?

    I cannot drink bulletproof coffee at all, but HTone Fatshake is much more drinkable. Try that instead.

    After three weeks on LCHF - 4kg down - a better weekend on the bike - feeling great On this stage the most difficult for me is that this way of eating is a whole mind shift! It is totally the opposite of what I/the greater part of the population knew of nutrition. First: fat make fat - busy getting over that statement.... Second: you have to have breakfast, I tried bulletproof coffee and could not get it down, then I tried htone's fatshake with the salt I could not drink it but without it is actually drinkable but now there is no need for breakfast because this keep me full
