The day started off with lovley conditions and everyone meeting up for the usual pre-race injuries and excuses of why they wouldn’t run well chat !!
Then panic struck as Billy Eccles, who was due to be running in less than 5 minutes disappeared, which sent all the BVH members running in different directions trying to find him. Even Dave moved quicker than I’ve seen for a long time.
Billy had got lost in the forest but managed to get back just in time for his race. Obviously Michael was very calm and wasn’t worried and didn’t even tell him off!!!!!!
Richard Johnson- Johno also arrived just in time to get on the start line. This was not good for my blood pressure but there lies another story !
