You get a full cooked breakfast and use of the swimming pool afterwards but still....

decorum
and (or and if you prefer ) for all those who got out and did in interesting conditions
No running for me since Thursday ~ but two trailer tugging bike rides and a five(ish) hour game of Tug-of-War with bramble instead.

This running malarkey is an expensive business. Hope you get a nice medal too.

Races seem to be getting more and more expensive. I think my only 'big' event this year will be the Great South Run (I already entered the Bupa 10k immediately after the last one, so that doesn't count ;-)) and I'll stick to club races the rest of the time.

10 miles Bint I did 4 and it was not pretty! I wanted to enter Cardiff half before discovering it was £54. Bloody cheek. Mr Carp wants to do the London 10k which is £47 plus booking fee.

The Denbies 10 miler I did today (organised by the same company) was £21 which I think is a lot. £17 entry, + £2 as an unaffiliated runner, and another £2 'shipping fee' which is s cheek as they email you all instructions and you collect your number on the day. Great race and organisation though.

I also looked at the London 10k, - and looked away again.
Brilliant photos! Captured the facial expressions beautifully, not to mention the both-feet-off-the-ground running as you came round the curve having survived the BOD. Brown seems an unusual colour for tutus, though...
Looking at the photos is as near as I want to get.
Could not believe that Mankini man. He ran the whole race, in those near-zero temperatures, wearing no more than that?
9.3 mile long run this afternoon.

Mr. White
yeep - it's getting pricey innit? Think I'll bodyswerve the Edinburgh marathon (£50+) and go for Strathearn instead (Perth), much cheaper at £23 and it's a local-run thing (course is "a bit hilly" though) - I'll do a flat marathon one day
