Ho Ho Ho. My first bling!

I was one of 250 Santas today taking part in the Dundee 5K Santa Run. My strategy was to follow Santa, keep Santa in sight at all times, let Santa over take me if he was faster, over take Santa if I was faster than him and make it over the line to claim my Santa medal. All objectives successfully achieved and I’m home with my shiny new medal, my first ever for running. Can’t believe how much fun this running lark is even when you are running in a red suit, red hat and a beard lol.
