Going forward, paid subscribers get “early access” – each new post will be paywalled until the next one comes out. After that, they become free to all.
This means my newsletter archive is now available to everyone, including the recent entries Zagreb (slapstick racing, land art, rivals) and Manchester (the food issue). If you want to read the rest of this post, you can become a subscriber, or wait until I publish the next. The wait may be a little more erratic than usual now that we’ve entered the racing season, as my mental state and writing time is less predictable.
Of course, paid subscribers are directly supporting my running career. Thank you so much!
Two more races, both objectively terrible. I’m starting to sweat, because this is the first time I’ve entered a European season without having been pre-selected for the World Champs team, or having run a qualifying time at the start of the selection window last season. I have until 24 August – two months – to run as fast as I can for the best chance to make the Australian team.
