Santa Dash

Typical you wait most of the year for Santa to come and then 800 turn up at once!.

Day 3 with the nephew and niece we decided to run some energy off them by doing the Santa Dash in Skipton.
One of those mad running events that attracts a large crowd keen on being a bit daft.
Young Sam - keen to beat us all, went with my eldest boy Matt and enjoyed leaving his sister and Uncle behind. Linda and I accompanied Lily (I struck her a deal when she was tired I'd carry her, if I got tired she'd carry me - let's just say I kept my part of the bargain). It was a pleasant natured wander around Skipton on a sunny morning, if a little odd to see crowds of Santas wherever you went.

One slightly odd thought was that I'd never before been so content in the company of so many bearded women.
