A cold day in Abergele

Let me get my hands on it!
Well we're right in the thick of the racing season with plenty of cross countrys and road races of various forms taking place in the region. Here's a photo of a delighted Vicky taking the North Wales 5 mile championship gold award in her age group on a chilly and blustery Abergele seafront. A great turnout from Denbigh Harriers with plenty of prize winners - don't quite know how Sali (in the green t-shirt) didn't freeze to death.
I thought I'd blown it until the last few hundred yards - I'd got off to a good start but then faltered between three and four miles. But then I spotted my arch rival starting to flag ahead of me. This sequence of photos shows what happened when Dally (in the thick black coat) gave me a few words of encouragement.

'There he is - by gum he's slowing down!''
'Or am I speeding up?'

'Gotcha!'
