Discovery Dave Aug 2017 11:23am, 8 Aug 2017 14,392 posts	0 Discovery Dave Unbelievable footage from Putney Bridge this morning: bbc.co.uk Absolutely awful, and completely intentional. The last thing we need is for one or two arseholes to start giving runners a bad name (am I right, cyclists?) So. Is it anyone we know? I can't imagine it's a Fetchie...

The odd thing is that this happened in May yet the story has broken now, the chances of catching him would appear to be lessened due to the time that has passed.

I'm always trying to find reasons why it might have been an unhappy accident - when I run, sometimes I totally zone out (not music - I don't wear headphones). Today a bike had to shout at me on a canal tow path to alert me that he was coming. I was dreaming about last night's 1500m and racing on a track. Walter Mitty esque. Could it have been that, completely oblivious? G
