Ooh I have a Virtual Race

[Amblerman]

So last weekend I was supposed to be joining a large group of runners in the Blenheim Palace 7k event. It has been reorganised for October (wishful thinking methinks but never mind) but in the meantime there is a virtual race over the coming weekend. Great excuse for me to run it on the flat in the local park thus avoiding some of the inclines of the original course. Mind you my house isn't as grand as Blenheim Palace though.

Ooh how fabulous! That’ll be great to look forward to. Enjoy it all and let us know how it goes. I assume there will be bling? 🏅

Well I left it to the last dregs of daylight on Sunday evening as relaying the patio took a wee bit longer than I had hoped it would. First time I have ever run just after dinner and probably the last too. Managed to complete the 7k in 44 minutes and a few seconds which is about 3 minutes more than I have been running but I blame the pasta. Oh and I slowed down to watch a small group of Munjack Deer in the local park. Very rare to see them in the daylight. Excuses over. No bling unfortunately. That will have to wait until the rearranged proper run.

Well done! That sounds a great run 👍🙂 You can always send for some bling on one of the virtual running websites.
