A busy bank holiday with three days up before 6am on the trot did mean that we beat the bankholiday traffic, but now it's back in the office to work through it all ! Not so good !
Saturday was a damp day with passing showers, but otherwise not too bad conditions at Dorney lake for the F3 Festival of Sport - various triathlon distances and swims on offer. Sunday was the rather fabulous Arundel Scouts Castle 10k with free photo downloads - the rain stopped just in time to make for a wonderful race through the grounds and up onto the Downs, and Sunday saw the Canterbury Half Marathon going off in perfect running conditions - apart from that massive hill at 11miles...

Here's the future list of races that we're going to be at - I don't put them all on here and I do list some new ones - it started off as just half marathons but now I'm adding a few 10k and trail runs into the mix, I didn't want to make the list definitive or too big, it's there to tease some interest for you !
