Charlotte & Natasha ran the 2011 Race for Life this weekend, both doing a great job of completing the course in exactly 30 minutes which for them was really good, it was incredibly hot as well so all the more impressive. It was packed there at the University Parks, they had 7,500 participants along with Dads and kids supporting tells you how many were there.
They ran with Kerry, Chloe and Sharon. Katharine Casey was there too and it was her birthday so there was a ‘bring and share’ picnic organised afterwards which was nice, loads of lovely food! Stayed there for an hour or so, whilst all the kids played football or did their acrobatics or competed with each other at something or other like climbing trees and the like.
We then went up to the Rover Cowley Works as there was a Family Open Day there so we met up with Holdy and Millar and pottered round taking the kids to the various stalls, they’re all competitive in their own way on the running machines and rowing machines and anything else – funny to watch them. Stayed there for a couple of hours and then went over to Bicester to see Nikki and Gaz for a barbie.
Stayed there for a few hours as well!!!
All day it’s been unbelievably hot, we’ve had crap weather this summer so far and Sunday/Monday were forecast to be hot and we’re all moaning that it’s too hot…can’t win eh?
Had a good day though and it was great to see everyone, managed to get some good photos as well
Jack found a unique way to cool down in the heat when he got back to our house!
