there was a Veedub transporter in Sainsburies Cockermouth the other day had an ETF swim, bike run badge, with a black & white skull and crossed bones next to my car ( sporting a proper yella & black badge )
That was me Meldy! Well you did shout pirate! I thought it was you when I passed saying well done and when you shouted Pirate I knew. Felt bad cycling past you all on that hill....ooh steep! Slim Shady was also on the sportive. I saw him before the start and at the first feed station but he too was incognito.

Swimming Cat I had the most amazing ice cream envy. That lolly looked yummy
(lovely to meet you BTW)
Not sure that a fueling strategy of an ice lolly is typical marathon fare but I promised myself an ice cream.
Cheerful Dave at Ballbuster today.
I also spotted Joddly in the results and she must have passed me going up the bloody hill on the last lap.
Great to see you again mate. Yes, I spotted Joddly in the results too, I wondered if she'd be there again.
I seem to be famous, maybe should charge for image rights

...and such a wining smile too. Looks like you were enjoying it a lot more than the person behind you.

I did the Oakley 20 this morning (and this afternoon to be accurate)
part of the course was also a sportive which must have been done to annoy the locals
random piraate spotted going passed me on the bike 'is that Meldy?' ....I was in disguise in club kit!
nothing can disguise you

I did wonder who it was...such a bad design those old cycling jackets, you can barely see the skull at the top!!
mind you I think black cycling gear is bad full stop !
that was a proper lumpy course
Yes I think that was about right ...mile 6-7 was not nice as I recall
not many of them were
Duda, Just checking back to my training diary from 2015. Twasn't me!!!!!

M&M and Digger spotted on the Manchester Marathon telly coverage at around 9:40. It's on 4oD
