I just found out today. Very shocked. Love, respect and commiserations to the whole Francis family - immediate and Charlie’s greater extended speed family.
About 8-9 years ago I was in a mess physically and mentally, but I came across Speed Trap and CF.com. Following Charlie’s training schedule’s I got some structure back in my life (and got sub 12/24 secs at age 40). I’m doing pretty good now - I structured my studies along CF lines and I’m doing a PhD in Creative Writing.
I haven’t been online here for a while, but I just want to say a Big Thankyou to Charlie. I’ll miss reading his tips, honest opinions and mostly his humour.
Cheers Charlie…
