you can see more images from the day at
For those who took part in the event on Saturday I have around 200 photos from the day which I am happy to download onto a disk and send to you...in return for a donation of not less than £5 which should cover my costs and allow me to give the remainder to Dorset Advocacy and the local branch of the NSPCC, the two charities I am supporting in my London Marathon run this year.
You can email me - trevorbevins@hotmail.co.uk which is slightly different than the address Nicky/Simon gave you on the day...to try and avoid spammers to my main email!!
On a personal note I was so taken by the event that I signed up for the Sunday session - and while I enjoyed the run, I was less keen on the bike session ...probably because I'd not been on a bike for about 6 months (why does it seem to involve different muscles than running?) and the bracket which holds the derailier on snapped clean off about 3 miles from Cerne Abbas hall...luckily much of the way back was downhill, but annoying nonetheless.
Congratulations to the organisers, by the way. Pretty flawless I though ...although you can never account for strange individuals who decided to remove checkpoints!
