Must have made a cameo appearance at the Oxon XC league last weekend as well.
It was about zero degrees so I ran in vest, shorts and a buff. I was skirting an awful quagmire section about 1.5km from the finish when some low hanging twigs snagged my buff. I was feeling like shit and was overheating by that point anyway, and I didn't want to impede the following runners by stopping suddenly so I carried on to the finish.
When I walked back the buff was gone (along with a couple of other hats that had met a similar fate). I asked around and none of the marshals had picked it up and the only hat to be handed in was a pink child's beanie. I can only assume that Cirencester Country Park is home to a owl with similar proclivities... either that or some back marker went home with a hoard of sweaty hats.
