Boxing Day Fun Run

From http://bvetsfootballgroup.blogspot.com/

All the pub talk in recent weeks - including as recently as Friday - came to nowt when it came to the crunch - with one exception - our man from Houston turned up raring to go:

The weather conditions had severely reduced numbers - normally there's a three figure turn-out, but I only counted 16 at the start this time, all of them younger and including some regular runners. Understandably, Malcolm lurked at the back a bit:

Here he is hiding behind the beefcake:

and off he goes:

but by the time he had crossed Dee St and headed along Bridge St, poor Malcolm was already trailing by 50 yards or so:

Still, at least he had the bottle to do it, unlike everyone else. I met Malcolm at the end and he told me he had done it in 40 minutes - although there was a suggestion that he had perhaps cut off a bit of the route. He had got a bit distanced from the rest of the field and had to make up his own route back!

Well done, Malcolm!
