Thank you to the 111 finishers who joined us this weekend for another fantastic morning of community spirit, personal achievements, and fresh air.

Congratulations to all of the brave souls who chose barcodes over blankets today! Following the recent polar blast, the temptation to stay in bed was at an all-time high. Winter is coming... we all need to be strong on the next few weeks. 🥶🥶🥶
