I was recently contacted by the team at Freetrain to ask if I wanted to try out their new range and to be honest I had never heard of them. But that makes sense since that's why they would contact the likes of myself, to try and get a bit of exposure for their products, … Continue reading Review of Freetrain VR

As I had mentioned before in previous blogs, being of “advancing years” but a very keen runner I had been asked to trial and review a joint health product called GOPO®.

It causes him to unleash all sorts of irritation … Continue reading From the hip
Review – Runderwear Running Briefs
Disclaimer : It is safe to read on. There are no pictures of me wearing pants in this review. Or in any review. Be safe retinas. You know I’ve been thinking a lot recently. That’s a dangerous thing especially for me. My mind is more complex than a Dalek trying to solve a Rubik’s cube. … Continue reading Review – Runderwear Running Briefs
