Brilliant photographs!

Well done on your fantastic race positions today you two!

Now, who was first and who was second? 😉

Now, Sam was ahead all the way by miles, but just before the finish stopped to talk to friends.

I ran through heartlessly. 😁😁

[Hidden in reply to HeavyFoot]

🤣 That's true friendship for you!!

😂😂 like that scene in the film “Genevieve”...

[grumpyoldgirl in reply to HeavyFoot]

Ha, just like that runner on the news today who stopped to let the other chap get third place - no, wait... not like that at all...😈😂

[HeavyFoot Graduate10 in reply to grumpyoldgirl]

I read about that and felt deep, deep shame. Which I fought off with a cup of tea. 😏

[Irishprincess Graduate10]

Haha love it! 😂😂 Great photos and well done to both of you for your wins 😉

Sam’s a hero of mine. He’s 72 and has been running since Pontius was a pilot. His example set me off on C25K two years ago.

[Irishprincess Graduate10 in reply to HeavyFoot]

Amazing 💪🙂

[Oldgirlruns Graduate10]

Oh well done HF - first and second eh? That’s definitely a result to celebrate!😃

[Cmoi Graduate10]

Bravo, bravo ! I've just googled the race, looks fun!

[HeavyFoot Graduate10 in reply to Cmoi]

It is fun and we’re hoping it’s run next year. We ran the new 11 km route. The 20 km is for very hardy runners and usually dominated by East Africans.

Congratulations on a family 1-2 finish!!!

I was third!

Congratulations on your gold and silver medals heavyfoot . I think these virtual races are a great way of keeping people motivated and will be doing one myself at the end of October. It started off we’d be running with 9 , then in 2 groups to stay under 6 - who knows what tomorrow will bring.

Enjoy your running as it brightens up our day no end.
