Tough Guy

It's a pity that the US election will be over by November, it's really entertaining.  One thing you can't accuse Mr Trump of is being boring.  The most interesting thing about this latest latest revelation (that he denigrates and talks about being in a position of power over women) is not that he has said such things, but that no-one is surprised and has not really had a huge adverse affect on his ratings.  I don't know what they says about his supporters, but surely their patience is wearing thin by now.  We've heard a few prominent Republicans calling him to stand down but it does seem to me that his overall support amongst the people that matter on polling day remains strong.

Day 10 of Runtober/Roctober and I've maintained my 4 miles per day minimum target.  It wouldn't matter a jot of course if I didn't meet it, but I have standards you know.
The latest cyclocross on Sunday was quite a gruelling affair with a sharp rain shower adding to the fun just before the race.  This meant that the track became quite sticky in some places and got more slippery as the race progressed resulting in my falling off on the last bend on the last lap but thankfully remounting before anyone overtook and finishing in 36th place, 10th in my age group which seems to be the standard for this year.
