Run or a swim

I do love a race day. You wake up feeling excited put on your kit and see all the loonies fellow runners are eager to stand pinning their bibs and such.  All very well all very wonderful. But UK weather has other plans...  I just had to do the Mo running event since it was a 10th anniversary and I am pretty sure I did the very 1st Cardiff event 9 years ago. And it was always my fastest and the funnest race. Some costumes are totally out there!  I even done this race after the storm and a day before flying out to Russia with a small child.  But this year it was something else....  The rain was cold. The wind was cold. I run in my jacket! That never happened. And at some point I was ankle deep in a puddle...  Our son’s classmate had a little cry after completing her mini Mo race (1,5k) because her feet were wet and she was cold. I hear you little one I almost went home again. She was very happy once home, just so you know, she has a shiny medal and a fun head...
