Running

Ooh, lummy, the Great North Run is hilly, isn't it?

Still, a woman gave me an ice cream on the route. Then another gave me a biscuit. Top notch.

I saw women handing out ice-pops. waaaay too cold for them.

It ended up being much much better than I remember it being, particularly the support, the bands and the general atmosphere, even in the drizzle and rain.

Managed to start near the front so not too much dodging of slow runners. Got a 1:22:44 pb.

Definitely going to enter next year now.
