When we are trying to encourage fitness in our communities this seems so very shortsighted...@Mike_Tarry_775 @NorthantsLife
Our local trails here in Northampton have been flattened by the council - these have been built and ridden for over 20 years by young and old - please help and sign our petition to get us some new trails to ride - Thanks! #mtb #mountainbike change.org/p/hardingstone-pa…

If you don’t wear a helmet while out on your bike, you’re an idiot! – at Northampton, England
rider had front blowout on descent today. This is his helmet, he’s ok. Apparently ‘research shows helmets don’t reduce injury’. Utter shite.

How mean. These sneaky runners coming here and carefully guiding a blind athlete through a whole 26.2 miles of crowds and tripping hazards just to get into our exclusive marathon. This'll show 'em. (Srsly: are they going to whip away the foil blanket at the end too?)
Unbelievable that @LondonMarathon have advised guide runners will not receive medals at this year’s marathon. What message does that send on how they value the support provided to participants in disability sport? @BritBlindSport @FoxNikkiFox @VICTAChildren @RNIB @ukrunchat

A finishers medal is a finishers medal! Guides play a vital role in allowing blind/VI people participating.
Disgusted to hear @LondonMarathon will not be awarding medals to guide runners. To the persons who made this decision; have you ever guided? Blind/VI people couldn’t do it without their guide. It’s a huge responsibility. A handful of medals costs nothing!

Replying to @DSS123
I lost count of the number of times I asked ITU to include guides in start lists/results. Response was always "the computer system doesn't allow two names"! 🙄🤦‍♀️ Guide names were included on everything in Rio though.

@rachelburden @Raworthontherun Any views on this? VLM have emailed confirmation that guides will not receive medals - totally the wrong message on how we encourage runners to support those with a disability.
I don’t guide a VI athlete for a medal, however @LondonMarathon this is so mean spirited, this hardly encourages people to guide, please change this decision, it is a huge responsibility guiding, we don’t even get a time with our name. #vlm @BritBlindSport #running #marathon
