    That IS disappointing about Heffernan. Another hero with feet of clay.

    In other rant news: the property "mini boom". And talking about it like it's a good thing.

    Folks not bothering to read some really interesting threads on here (iif the "Views" count is to believed ) Shauna Cannon interview for example.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 10,899 ✭✭✭✭Murph_D


    People mentioning interesting threads on here without providing a hyperlink thus forcing me to use the search function. :)

    Had my Garmin switched to km for the race last Saturday and keep forgetting to switch it back. I hate running in km!

    The Rant thread has become a mere shadow of its once mighty self. Like Sonia in her final years or Keane at Celtic, it makes one sad to witness its now impotent limpness. It has become a parody of itself. Please moderators, I implore thee, give it a clean death.

    Maybe the quality of ranting is not what it once was back in the day, but if it gives runners a place to vent their little minor frustrations and offload, then sure what harm? All in the greater good as a less stressed runner is a happier runner which in turn is a better runner :)

    That's just way too positive for this thread. Hang your head in shame.

    Back in the day the aul lads didn't worry about the stress leves, your rants were long and hard and thats why the quality of the rants these days doesn't match up. There is to much back slapping for a half arsed rant. :D

    Rant: How is it physically possible that no matter where in Ireland you are it always seems to be that hills were designed to always coincide with fecking wind. :mad:
