Seeing more of this in football players. It is a sport that provides a massive cardio workout. Sprints, jogs, constant movement, constant stretching. Not only are top professionals running 10km each game, they are also doing complete HIT sessions during each game. Add to that the 4-5 times they do training each week. While it makes you supremely fit, the science is not complete on how good being supremely fit is for you. Or to rephrase that (because fitness is obviously good), is there a point where you put too much work on your heart?

My mate's Dad was the Scottish team Doctor at the 78 WC - Some great stories but unfortunately I cannot write about them on a public forum.
I value the lives of my family and my friends.

Can anyone remember Ally Macleod? the Scottish manager of the time who had convinced us that we were going to win the World Cup...?

The 2018 article is both well written and weighty. It filled me with such great sadness. If anyone has not yet toured the Navy Petty Officers School of Mechanics, I encourage you to spend half a day there.

Of course , you were watching the other big game last night...Scotland Vs Ukraine
Of course, we failed miserably against a time that hasn't been involved in active football for a few months for well documented reasons.
One of my mates who was at the game insisted that we lay down our arms and let them win to make them feel good.
