Sinopsis

Following the sudden resignation of manager Dave Ewing in 1971, former player Eddie Turnbull was to turn over a new leaf for a team facing relegation. Playing from 1946 to 1959 and forming part of the Hibernian's 'Famous Five' forward line, Turnbull would now take the managerial hot seat at his hallowed Easter Road.
From Hibernian historian Tom Wright comes a fascinating, in-depth look into the whirlwind seasons for a Hibs side under Eddie Turnbull: the players, fans, successes, clashes, defeats, controversies and more.
Going down in history with just one major title, behold the rise and eventual fall of the magical Turnbull's Tornadoes – possibly Hib's greatest ever side.

    Skater Girl Asha tells the TRUE story of how Asha, an Untouchable, broke courageously with the traditional conventions in her village and shaped her life ever since. She escaped her arranged marriage and found her passion and purpose through skateboarding. Today, Asha is a strong voice for all the girls in her village of Janwaar – and far beyond. 
    “Before the skatepark started, I was very different. I didn’t know my own voice. I couldn’t talk to anyone. I couldn’t even make eye contact with anyone. I never made any decision on my own – only my family members would decide what is good and what is bad for me. This has changed completely when the skatepark came to my village. I’ve found my voice. It is a long and bumpy road I am on – but I take it as the challenges occur!”

    Together We Can - 33 Marathons...

    Together We Can is the inspiring story of an amazing feat. On 1st of December 2024, at the age of 58, Peter Baines set off in the extreme heat and humidity from the north of Thailand to run 1400km over 26 days, averaging 60kms per day. Peter's goal was to raise $1 million. Peter Baines had been a leading forensic investigator with the NSW Police before he was deployed to Bali in 2002 after the bombings, and then to Thailand after the Boxing Day tsunami. It was during the aftermath of the tsunami that Peter started the Hands Across the Water charity. The biggest impact upon Peter during his work in Thailand was meeting a group of Thai children orphaned by the tsunami. Returning to Australia, Baines made a commitment to support these 32 children who were living in the tent in the grounds of a Buddhist temple. The initial objective of the Hands Across the Water was to build a home for these children, and it was this first home that marked the finishing line of the Run to Remember, exactly 20 years to the day of the tsunami. Together We Can is not a story of one man s 20-year commitment to children and communities in need. Nor is it simply a story of physical achievement the likes of which many simply cannot comprehend. It is the celebration of what can be achieved together. It is the celebration of the best of humanity, through what were often the most difficult times.One of the main learnings from this incredible feat of endurance (running the equivalent of 33 marathons in 26 days) was that although Peter was the only person who completed the run, it took a team to get him across the finishing line. The lessons are invaluable for businesses, organisations and sports teams and it is these lessons that remain with Peter (and hopefully the reader) long after the blisters have healed.

    Fitness motivation is a powerful driving force that pushes individuals to set goals, stay committed, and achieve their desired outcomes. It’s more than just a fleeting burst of enthusiasm – it’s a mindset, a lifestyle that can help you overcome obstacles and stay on track, even when the going gets tough. To truly harness the power of motivation, it’s important to first understand its role in the context of fitness. 
    At its core, the power of mindset is what separates those who achieve their fitness goals from those who struggle to stay on course. Fitness isn’t just about physical strength or endurance; it’s largely driven by mental resilience. A positive mindset allows you to focus on the process, rather than becoming discouraged by temporary setbacks or plateaus. Whether you're just starting out or you've been working on your fitness for years, developing a mindset that embraces challenges as opportunities is key to long-term success. 
    Equally important in understanding fitness motivation is overcoming mental barriers. Many people experience self-doubt, fear of failure, or the belief that they’re not capable of achieving their fitness goals. These thoughts can be crippling, but the good news is that they can be overcome. By reframing negative thoughts, setting small achievable goals, and focusing on your progress rather than perfection, you can gradually dismantle the mental barriers that stand in your way. Recognizing and confronting these barriers head-on is one of the most effective ways to stay motivated in your fitness journey.
