I apologise for the title of this weeks post it is the best I could come up. It is a reference to the both the amazing energy Kathy is showing in completing 19 events already and the fact that on 24th she took part in the City of Salford Womens Race in the company of Linda Edmondson who created Kathy's wonderful 70 @ 70 banner. GO KATHY!
Telford Town parkrun 23rd November 2013
A lovely cold frosty morning with a little bit of ice under foot which I enjoyed. The only problem was with my friend Dave who thought he only had one lap to do so as we approached the end of the first lap he was just about to go into the finishing area. I asked him where was he going and he was shocked when I said oh no you don't, you've got to do another lap. It completely knocked him for six and I then had to nag him all the way round. Although one or two dropped out just in front of us I made it quite clear he was not and this week he was going to complete the 5k,we might see him again hopefully.
City of Salford Womens 5.5 mile Race, Sunday 24th November
On Saturday John and I stayed the night with Linda and Neil Edmondson who fed and watered us well. Sunday weather was quite good. There was 145 who took part in this ladies only race.
The course was a nice run around the streets with its lightly graded uphill, atmosphere was good with plenty of encouragement from the public, we had a very good sweeper who will be running in the Telford 10k next month. It was nice to see Gillian Fowles and Fiona Dillon from the Whitchurch Whippets, when I came in my usual place I had such a cheer from everyone, and a big thank you to Linda Edmondson who very patiently ran round with me. Although it said mementos to all finisher we didn't mind as the money was going to the local childrens hospice.
