Good luck Katnap and TailChaser. Lyme park would have been good training for this one . I see the bee outfit is out again 🐝 🐝

I joined the AC who organised the C25K programme that I did a year ago. If you register for a run as an AC member you MUST run in your club kit. English Athletics rules!

It also means cheaper entry fees so that’s good. πŸ˜‰

The Β£2 I saved was spent on the bus trip. It's a point to point race so we parked at the finish and took a bus to the start.

Maybe you could manage a fast waddle?

We did before and after photos. Tailchaser wins the most muddy award.

Oh I love a flat lay! This one is very smart! Enjoy your race, Katnap, and hope it’s not too soggy!

Lots of muddy happy people at the end.

Bit of a scary downhill sprint finish in the conditions!

good luck! you're brave running is shorts and sleeveless t-shirt !!

how do you find waterproof socks? I am looking at socks for winter and couldn't decide whether waterproof ones would hold the sweat in as well as the water out

After the halfway mark I was thankful for keeping to one layer. The rain held off for a bit and I soon felt hot!

I have some Dex Shell thermal waterproof socks. The toweling inner helps with reducing the boil in a bag feeling.

I was wondering about them too...

Seat Skinz are the known brand for waterproof socks, gloves, hats but they're usually mega money unless on a deal / sale.

Shop around and there are other options!

I saw some that were sort of wet suit material, they seemed ever so thick.

KatnapMarathon in reply to Fatgirlslim19

I have fairly loose fitting shoes so I have no problems with the thicker fabric.

KatnapMarathon in reply to Fatgirlslim19

I think there's a bamboo based waterproof sock for warmer conditions that is thinner.
