The grass in the finish funnel was taller than we remembered . .and yet the signs were difficult to get into the ground . . The Volunteers were great, as always, and they arrived early to be allocated their tasks for the morning . . . . and we welcomed some tourists who were happy to be at Abingdon . . . . although understandably, perhaps wary of the tigers . . . . slowly the runners arrived and made their way to the start . . . . and whilst some were happy to catch up with friends and talk about last night's footie, others spent the last few moments warming up . . . . people do find odd ways to spend a Saturday morning, don't they!! . . although standing on a river bank for 20 minutes or so, making sure that a hundred or so runners are safe and headed in the right direction, seems perfectly normal!! |
