Spooky sprint - after...

And because I promised, here's the after. The face paint held up amazingly well, though you can see a sweat-line of actual skin on my top lip, and drip marks down my neck where I missed my mouth with my water bottle! I think I finished around 55minutes, which isn't bad given the patchy nature of my training.

Thanks Vix. I did a half marathon in the spring but have had rather a lazy summer so it was nice to get back into things, and my friend hadn't raced before so it was a fab way to start!
