Hi guys, bet if you ran yesterday you got soaked just like I did. Enter the Eirias Park 10k with my running buddies and we were dressed as cats for Halloween, great fun really, but boy were we dripping. I celebrate my 66th birthday this week and running has made me feel maybe 35, can’t be bad for us all then. Have a happy running week everybody

You look 35!!! Eirias Park? My brother lives just down the road and I used to live in Penrhyn Bay then Lanrhos. If you're fairly local, you should try the Coast half marathon next April - starts on the prom there 🙂

I just looked - it's the same event organiser. I liked them - had a small 'family' feel 😍. Congratulations on making 10k in that weather though, bet it was windy too!

Oh wow! Good luck with that - I'll take a look at the route 🙂. I do hope the wind is in your favour for it (we had a headwind for the whole of the Coast HM because it was point to point all along the coast, no change of direction) 🤞

Check you out Ageless! Absolutely brilliant. 🐱 🎃 It was pretty mild as well as wet yesterday (although at PR we were fortunate and beat the rain) - bet you were soggy as can be! Well done though. 😀🏃‍♀️👍

Pretty glam for a soggy cat, I’d say! 🎉👏🏼🎉 Congratulations on a great run - persistence required, especially from cats. 😄👍

You definitely are Ageless lass. I think we found running just at the right time to get fit post working life. Love your outfit but I can only guess how you felt after all that rain. 🐈🎃

It was steamingly soggy, clothes were really really wet, very memorable though😀😀

I saw your your photo and showed it to my husband saying “she is never 66!” He replied “more like in her 30s!”

Well done for your rainy 20k! The worst bit is afterwards I always find, when you are all dripping wet and cold.
