Coventry Way: Stolen Sandwiches & Mud Under My Toenails

Ran 41 miles at the Coventry Way.


Got rained on. Got sunned on. Got snot-rocketed on. (More practise required)



Ran across tiny bridges, waded through slurry, splashed through floods, squelched through mud, may even have run up a hill.



Started dead last (chip timing this year) but overtook the sweeper. No food at 1st CP as they’d run out and just scraps at the 2nd … glad I’d packed snacks!



The fantastic Rugby Tri cheer group at Brinklow and I nicked my husbands sandwich which cheered me up!


Mud everywhere, floods fit to have whales in and a pint of cider at the end.


Same again next year? (But more food pls!)

1st lady and 12th overall / 185
