Strava has deleted millions of race records after amateur athletes were caught cheating to climb up its internal leaderboards. The popular exercise app, which is used to record runs, cycles and other exercises, has culled 3.5million 'suspicious' activities from its database. Strava, which is used by around 180million people worldwide, offers virtual trophies and ranks users on leaderboards according to their times. However, the cheating has allowed amateur athletes to be placed higher than they should be.

I wrote here last week that I expect Rangers to win the title with a bit to spare. They could be top of the league by the time they finish playing Hearts at Ibrox next weekend. Hibs can’t win the title but next best thing is helping make sure Hearts don’t win it either.
