A wondrous white dust painted our urban training arena an unrecognisable bright white. Crunching through the snow with each fresh print, very satisfying stuff.

Rewarding to see so many of you wanting to have a wee jog in the powder eleven this week, I would've taken that pre session! There was a fascinating contrast in attire, Hilary opting for the double ski jacket classic, Graham in his usual beachwear - honestly wouldn't have known they were doing the same sport.

Two groups headed to the applecart theatre, a fast group and a back group, of course the back group reached first. I was actually not leading this time, Tim can take the navigational pot shots on this occaision! The vast building was looking majestic in the snow, we helped clear out a room on the second floor, taking the junk down a couple flights. Boxes, carpets, a stuffed chicken.. all the usual stuff. The guys were rewarded with free hoodies and tshirts for their efforts. Decent kit! We headed back with our haul, into the naturally lit night, no head torches required this week.

Cabana brazilian restaurant was our social spot, with it being Alice's birthday and all, good reason to have a beer and some half priced mish-mash of brazilian food, top evening.

Thanks again for your efforts, see most of you beauties on sunday. Should be great fun - I foresee many a PB!

Till then,

B
