Running 2015 – Cancer Research UK London Winter Run
So… the inaugural Cancer Research UK London Winter Run, all 10k of it. As most people must already know my last actual race (as in a timed event with chip timing and everything – not a parkrun) was back in the mists of time, in March 2011 in fact when I completed the Silverstone Half…
