Creatively speaking

More absolute cobblers that purports to be journalism.  This time an article about how 'isolated Wayne Rooney looks as his teammates celebrate a goal.  The picture 'taken by a fan' shows Rooney well away from about 6 of his team mates cuddling each other as some teams do when they score a goal.  What it fails to convey (as the comments below prove) that he was one of 5 players not taking part in the group hug, and he had also just been tackled and was limping back.
The article writers (it would be unkind to journalists to call him a journalist) must have a quota to fill on 1. footballers 2. Celebrities of any description 3. Meaningless surveys.  Either that, or they are good at creative writing.

As for training, I managed 3 runs last week - that's the first time in about 6 months, clocking 22 miles in total for the week without much in the way of niggles, aches and pains.  It must be down to my increased cadence/mid-sole striking which is gradually beginning to feel like 'normal' although I guess it will take a while yet.  It took me about 2 years to make bi-lateral breathing for swimming feel normal.
I also got a good ride in although it was windy.
