    "Our decision to remove funding does not negate our support for open access – it is key to ensure that research outputs are globally available to all."

    "Our position reflects the unsustainable costs and structure of the current publishing model and our duty as a charity to ensure that funds given to us are used to maximise benefits for patients and research."

  3. Day 1 Done

    It took more than 12 minutes.
    They were all knee push-ups.
    Sets of 20 became sets of 10 halfway through.
    They were laughably shallow by the end.
    I'm dying.

    But I did it.

  7. Attended the #WithernseaParkRun today. It was the 1st birthday of the event, which seemed to boost the numbers somewhat. Fun day, and there was cake!

    Only 2.6 miles until I hit the target for the #CancerResearchUK challenge!

  20. Attended the 3rd event at the Woodlands #Parkrun in #Scarborough. They have modified the course slightly, moving the "twiddle in the middle" to the return leg. Quite enjoyed it!

    Was a bit misty, but still really warm. 296 in attendance.

    It was day 12 of my #Run62Miles challenge for #CancerResearchUK, and I've hit the half-way mark!

  24. A 9km effort yesterday... a lot of run, walk, run, walk. It was pretty warm.

    But another 5 miles for day 10 of the #CancerResearchUK #Run62Miles challenge, so I now have a buffer at 27/62. Almost halfway!

  26. Rather than subjecting viewers to over 20 minutes of a not very fit 50-something year old running to raise funds for #CancerResearchUK, I've somewhat speeded it up... made me giggle anyway. 😂

  28. #CRUK #Run62Miles - 12/62

    Slightly less than 2 miles today, so stole point four from yesterday. But it was another progressive, and I was trying to finish a bit faster. Happy enough with that.

  30. A very windy #Withernsea Promenade #Parkrun today. But just as well, because as soon as you sat down out of the wind, the thunderbugs zeroed in. I felt sorry for a couple of chaps wearing bright colours!

    11 miles down now for the #CancerResearchUK #Run62Miles challenge.
