Horseplay 5k



Last month I took part in the 5k horseplay run in Hemley-on-Thames (that's me wearing the bright orange and a cringe). The dress code was country attire so me and Hannah went as 2 foxes and Dave (who decided to participate last minute; I've never seen anyone so embarrassed NOT to be in a ridiculous costume). The course was fun, scrambling over the horse jumps was my favourite bit (especially ones that needed a leap of faith) and my least favourite bit was probably right after getting soaked - those first few squeltchy steps!

The organisers also do other running events (including the Rat Race that we're doing in Bristol :) www.horseplay10k.com and www.ratraceadventure.com

I can't advocate silly exciting exercise enough - you don't even realise how much you're working because of all the laughter and distraction :o)

Leave me a comment and let me know of any other funny events you think I might be interested in or you might be interested to challenge me to do!
