He had to go through two months of physical and dietary training to prepare his body for the extreme forces he was about to experience. In doing so, he brought the Guinness World Record back to the U.K.

Pushing out 374bhp thanks to the supercharged V6 that can be found in the F-Type also, the F-Pace First Edition will be painted in two, unique paintjobs, Caesium Blue and Halcyon Gold, which are a direct reference to the C-X17 concept car. A 295bhp V6 diesel is also available.

  • Space: Large and Empty

    Over the weekend I fell into a bit of a science-fiction/science rabbithole. You know, one of those when you click on ONE Youtube video and suddenly the whole Sunday afternoon is gone and your algorithm is all messed up.  Anyway, obviously there's tons of fascinating stuff about space and science and all that. Too much, really.  But one fun fact has stuck in my brain: All the other planets in the Solar System could fit between Earth and our Moon.  It seems crazy to think, consideri

    Doing the thing, minus the thing

    You might have seen this viral clip on social media:  m2-res_480p.mp4 This might be one of the greatest, funniest things I've seen in quite a long while.  Put simply, its horse-racing, minus the horses.  And look, of course it's all a bit of fun (clearly a stunt to gain social media attention, but it also raised money for charity).

    Challenging myself to a week without coffee or sweetened drinks

    Sometimes, the key to spicing up your life can take a very simple and mundane form. Or in the case of a challenge I embarked on in early-July, a bland and literally tasteless one. Feeling sometime in mid-June that I had been swept up too mindlessly by the push-and-pull of the everyday, and seeing that I *had* to reclaim some sense of agency with the way I lived, I eventually decided: I would allow myself only water as a drink. I'm pretty sure Yakun and Toast Box lost a fair bit o
