Royal Parks Half Marathon

This weekend Jason and I supported a friend, Michi who was running a half marathon in Hyde Park raising money for Epilepsy Action It was a beautiful weekend full of hazy autumn sunshine which Jase's picture below captures wonderfully. I had great fun supporting all the runners, I clapped for half an hour solid. One of my favourite runners was the badger pictured below.
As well as the race there were food stalls - some of which were giving away free food and drink! Unfortunately the hog roast stall pictured below was not providing free food and the queue was horrendously long.
After the race we all went to an Austrian restaurant to drink beer and eat sausage - Michi is Austrian and had sacrificed beer during his race training!
