Vitality Home Nations 10k Competition?

Has anyone else had one of these? I wasn’t that fast so I can only think they’ve drawn me out of a hat. Anyway, it’s a bit of bling and a hat so I’m easily pleased - I’m running for England against Wales on 3rd October. England places are going really quick.

I think there are still some England places against Ireland but all the other nations are going quite slowly. Hope you get a place 👍

Still to look at sey up but yes it would be Scotland. Doing alternative exercise of painting today - all the up and down off platform step must be good running training 🤣

I keep getting them, but by the time I see the email England is sold out... tempting to run for Scotland though 🤣

I've had a couple and thought really!!! 🤔🤔

TailChaserGraduate10 in reply toMum22boys

Yeah but I’m starved of competition, even though I’ve just turned down a virtual race (although it’s one I’ve done for real before). This one is a bit different 🤷🏻‍♀️

Mum22boysGraduate10 in reply toTailChaser

It was the "one of the fastest" comment that got me 🤣 when I've got round to looking there's been no spaces anyway 🤷‍♀️

TailChaser profile image
TailChaserGraduate10 in reply toMum22boys

I just though it couldn’t have attracted that good runners then (all present company excepted 😂).

Annoying isn’t it? There were only 100 places for each nation per event which is fine for anything other than England. Perhaps it should have been 1000 v 100?!! May have been a bit unfair competition though...
