The Chevin Chase has been run on Boxing Day for decades. But I only took part for the first time last year. This week, I was back again,along with 23 other members of Hyde Park Harriers for a muddy, hilly run around the chevin.
The cameras missed me in the wood but here I am looking exhausted having just made it to the top of surprise view.
And, of course, it wouldn’t be the Chevin Chase without the traditional water dip.
My finish time was:
1:08:41
Around three minutes slower than last year. Not bad given I’m now 10% heavier. Lovely to see everyon and a big thank you to all of the volunteers who made the event happen.
