Claire On The Rampage...

She's a secret mad woman!  Claire McDaid isn't always happy with your average road race!  No, if it's hilly, or muddy or climbing over things then she'll have a go.  Claire regularly meets up with the nation's running community, a group of runners who met on a website called Daily Mile, and takes on unusual challenges.

The latest attempt  was the Run Rampage, an extreme cross country 10K at Bagshot.  Her time, she described as an "appalling 1.15.19 the slowest 10K of my life." but was a massive achievement because most of the competitors spent large parts of the event throwing mud at each other. She also lost her shoe at the first hurdle and spent a while on all fours in a swamp trying to find it. Claire said she loved every second of it and will do it again next year. The course included two river crossings and 7 or 8 huge hills.  Whatever next?
