5 x 50 t-shirt at Balfron 10k - was that you?

I ran the Balfron 10k on Sunday and there was a runner there in a 5 x 50 top. I wondered if it was someone I might know from this online community - but I was too shy to go over and say hello - anyone recognize themselves?

Ooh, you should have gone to speak to them. I'm really shy usually and can't talk to 'strangers' , but do chat to fellow runners at events. I approached a guy at the Glenlivet 10K race three weeks ago, because he was wearing a 5x50 t-shirt. I wasn't, but I explained I was doing it too. We walked across from the parking field to the registration building chatting about what we'd done for this challenge, plus the last as he'd done that too, and about the races we'd planned to enter.

I saw him later during the race and gave him a shout and a wave, but I'm not sure if he recognised me as I've taken off my sweatshirt!
