Caught on camera March 30, 2010

I took part in the East Hull 20 mile race on Sunday. Boy was it tough! From 9.5 miles till c.11.5 miles and from about 17.5 to 19 miles it was continous headwind which was no fun at all. I have seen it described online as ” like someone had just turned on an industrial hairdryer on full power – two steps forward and then one back” – a pretty accurate description if you ask me!

It appears that someone was videoing us on the course. If you would like to take a peek at me in action click play below and watch from the start until c.40 seconds-ish.

I am the one in the blue and yellow vest with the pony tail bobbing wildly behind me. When the video starts follow the figure in the top left hand corner and then once I disappear, watch for the man in the blue top running with the lady in red, I will appear from behind them.

Unfortunately when I saw the guy I thought he was taking still pictures so I am running towards the camera for about 10 secs grinning inanely…. oh dear! If I had realised it was video I would have taken a different approach!
