The Steepdown Challenge

Another race on the South Downs, but this time we only had to climb to the top once! A loveley October day saw three generations of Beesleys race. My elder grandson Sam was 14th (out of 52) in the Junior race, which was very good considering that it was an U16 race and he isn't 9 until next month. His aunty Rebecca finished 82nd (and 8th Lady( a very technical term for our Rebecca!)) in 35.32 whilst I came in 192nd in 41.21. There were over 300 runners so I was quite pleased. We are likeley to up North the weekend before Christmas so if there are any suitable races that weekend, please let me know.
