Sure it's easy to stay in bed on a rainy morning, but why would we do that when we could spend time with you? We had 13 weather warriors today (3 first timers). No PBs, but an excellent array of puddles! Thank you volunteers - we love you more than all the raindrops that fell on you!

Event #125 last weekend saw 10 brave runners and walkers. Brave because it was post-Halloween, pre-time change AND because of the headwind and muck! Each of them saw it through, including our tourists from the West Country, UK. Thanks for a lovely time all and much gratitude to the volunteers!
