BOK SWOA 50th anniversary 50 minute score event. Ashton Court mansion.
Jogged round - wore too many clothes, and too many knee supports! but that's a minor detail.
No knee pain - HURRRAAHHHHHHHHHHHH
Trundled round, passing those who'd gone off faster, and dropping those who ran faster but (unlike me) don't know every blade of grass on AC.
just got all controls in 49mins, including chatting to two women & their dogs about O after about 45 minutes.
Really nice buffet after (except it had all been eaten by the time I got there!) then prizes. Notable today - apart from the great atmosphere & the occasion & goodwill in the room (70 registered - 141 people turned up - Amazing!) was that a VERY gifted local athlete turned up - Owain Jones, B&W AC - he can run 5km in about 14:36, and he would have won had he not missed one control by accident. Clive therefore (and quite rightly, given the event) won the "race", and I was delighted with 7th.
MATTHEW OWEN GET TRAINING FOR M50 please!! :)
