Almost a whole page appeared about me in the Bournemouth Echo on Thursday with a fab photo of me in typical cross country pose...grinning from ear to ear and arms stretched out. It was taken at last year's Grizzly and clearly I was having a whale of a time!
Then my audio that Gloria recorded last week was aired over the weekend - I heard myself once yesterday and 3 times today! Even a neighbour stopped whilst I was in the front garden this afternoon to say that he had heard me 3 times too....he appeared amazed at what I was doing but I stupidly didn't ask if he was impressed enough to sponsor me....grrrrr - this publicity has gone to my head and made me forget the reason for it in the first place. Next time I'll have to bring myself down to earth a bit earlier.
Went out for an amazing run with Caro yesterday - I'd mapped out an 11 miler over at Whitsbury and Rockbourne so headed out there in the afternoon for an absolutely perfect run. Weather was brilliant for running, the scenery was amazing, there were enough hills to make it challenging with almost the entire route off road through fields, bluebell woods and tracks : we saw lots of racehorse foals, buzzards silently navigating through dense woodland and a roe deer doe with a very young fawn. Perfect company as well. 10/10.
Tricia came round in the evening with her brand new 'electric' bike and John and I had a hilarious time zooming up and down the road - it really was fast!
