Running before breakfast

default

Cllr Bart Ricketts (left) getting ready to run in the Kingston Breakfast Run this morning, organised by the Surbiton based sporting events company Human Race.

defaultHe, along with 13 others were running in aid of Young Kingston. Many thanks to all of them, including Paul Kenny, Kingston's Member of the UK Youth Parliament (left).

It was a very cold morning but I was pleased I got up early to see all the runners off from outside the Guildhall.

About 5000 took part, and the atmosphere was great, with a mixture of fun and club runners, some of them, of course, preparing for the London Marathon.

They can choose to do either the 8.2 mile circuit along the towpath to Hampton Court then back along the Kingston side of the river, or to go round it twice to cover the full 16 miles. (I can't quite understand how twice 8.2 makes 16, but then I've never run it myself).

The results should be posted here very soon.
