Europe 2009 and beyond!!

After 5000 miles, countless Cols and 6 Countries our VW returned to the UK fit and healthy (barring the water pump!)

It was a totally successful running season / surf / road trip. Injury free and racing strong and fast.
Races that took my fancy turned out to be fantastic, the scenery out of this world and the running folk we met were amazing.

I competed at the following races....
Canazei Vert KM and Canazei Sky race
Thyon Dixone
Lautashch half marathon
Pradazzo Vert KM
Misurina
Drei Zinnen
Commonwealth trial race
Smarna Gora
Kaiser marathon
Snowdon marathon

Experiencing a little German culture along the way!!!!!














I was lucky enough to represent my country (Wales) on 2 occasions....

Next adventure.................NEPAL (fingers crossed, including the highest marathon in the world!!!!)
