Apparently the new theory is that it’s important to ‘train down’ after a life as an athlete and get your heart and body ready for a more sedate lifestyle.

Interesting theory and would make some sense of the issue alongside genetics.

I've been training down for about 35 years now. Think that'll be okay..?

Actually, on reading about Butch, I must have completely missed that his heart problems had been well known and treated for years including a triple bypass last year. Still a dreadful shame. Another reminder to make the most of every day.


I saw the Nigel Quashie story earlier. Lovely story about a classy guy...
