I actually managed to forget the whole reason I mentioned Bracknell track! Trying to get a decent cd afterwards, as it got darker, I actually bloody got lost in some random housing estates however far away. Just about got back to the car before the wolves got me. Not quite the stress of the time after the Murder Mile that I thought it'd be a good idea to do a couple of miles in the forest nearby...aiming for say 1.5m straight line out, same back... Instead ended up properly lost in the Forest drive, eventually finding 2 randoms who told me how to get back to the "carpark". Then realised there were 2 bastad carparks  Just about got out before it was locked up! Funnily enough the parkrun the next day wasn't too tasty, bearing in mind that like an absolute tightwad I'd gone for the Premier Inn "zip" hotel on the outskirts of Cardiff (literally a box room - shower and toilet - but no window or space) 30 odd mins away...only to then have to drive 30mins back to a parkrun near the Murder Mile the next day!!! |

Funny how a 5 second gap to the next finisher puts you out of sight in that photo too. I finished 7 seconds ahead of someone recently but in my mental picture of the finish he was tucked in behind me. . There was one pic with about 150m to go where you have me and a Maidy guy literally on my shoulder, then the next 2 seemingly not far behind. There's nothing quite like turning up at a race knowing exactly who you will be battling. Even worse at a series with the same person. I saw another Maidy guy who I had an epic 3-2 battle with about a decade or more back! He's a 20xx type guy now, but life has kicked in for him. But he had me that series, as the 3 was in his favour. |

Come to think of it, I can still remember the main man telling me "don't go mad, remember your age" before that Sandhurst sesh at Bracknell track. At 31! |
