@SnailsMigrate @X @UKRunChat @TrainAsONE @GarminFitness We don't use it regularly, not by a deliberate decision but because our chief tweeter stepped down some years ago and we haven't had anyone volunteer to take it on since. We suggest you head over to our Facebook group, which is very active - you're likely to find someone there.

"Effects of ultra-endurance exercise on posture" - or, as it's more commonly known within the LDWA, "the lean". Several cases noted on this year's Flower of Suffolk 100.
