A run through middle earth
Following years of searching I've finally found my running soul mate in the form of the lovely Steph. My years in the wilderness are over, I no longer have to be bonkers on my own as I now have an equally bonkers, up for anything, running buddy. Take for example last Friday when we 'accidentally' ran 14 miles and chose to run up the steepest, most ridiculous hill we could find en route to boot! These are the kind of crazy ass things we do and if the truth be known, we shouldn't actually be allowed to run without adult supervision. A few months ago when we were looking at race options we stumbled across the Whirlow 10K trail race. Yep, looked good, like our kind of race. We then came to book it and discovered there was an option to do a 12 mile race. For this one you needed waterproof clothing, a compass, a map, a whistle, food supplies and navigation skills. Wow, this one sounded way more interesting so we didn't hesitate in signing up for it...
