Cliff's 50th and the Ashtead 10k

What a fabulous weekend!!!
STC hosting the River Itchen Biathlon on Saturaay so me, Suzanne and Jenny headed over to the start of leg 3 - St.Catherine's Hill to Bishopstoke The Hub. Approx 10k. Putting out signs, chatting, walking Yogi then big cooked bfast at the Toby Carvery.

Just got the 13:18 train to London (changed at Basingstone) and met the girls at London Bridge for Cliffie's 50th at the George Inn. We got there bang on 4pm. Brilliant fun. Was heaving by 6:30pm. We left just after 10pm to get various trains home. Cards Against Humanity at the Cranes when I got to Ashtead.

Sunday 11am Mark and I did the Ashtead 10k. Was a beautifully sunny warm autumnal morning, plus because it's been so hot the ground was hard so much easier to run - didn't turn ankle once :)

Peacock girls at the turn point.
1:16.04
Happy with that. 
Probably could have gone a bit quicker but needed to be careful with footing. 
End of week 2 training for the PCM = so far so good.

Just got to keep running. I will get quicker, stronger. So excited.

Cuppa at Mum's
Beautiful roast beef - thanks Markie.
Then a lift back to Southampton with the  Smiths - Stuey, Tamsyn and M. 
And omg - remembered just as we got off the M3 that my bike was at Southampon Central train station!!

An absolutely fabulous weekend.
