Well not exactly 'swift' but pleased with finishing 115 out of 220 (est) starters on the Wharfedale 1/2 marathon on 5 June. Really enjoyed the run, my first fell race, as I took part with my brother in law. Overriding memory (apart from the number of times I had to apologise to other car drivers on the way to and from Wharfedale Rugby Club) will be my brother in law charging down the final descent to catch someone who had overtaken him just before that. Awesome effort.
Had intended to follow the 1/2 marathon by watching Castleford Tigers in late kick off against Warrington - but time beat me. We did nonetheless watch the game at Julie's parents on Sky.
As a memento of the first fell race (and to try and maintain brother in laws potential interest in accompanying me at next years 3 Peaks Race) I bought brother in law a copy of 'Feet in the Clouds'. I read the first few pages and may have to buy myself a copy...
