Preparing for The Grizzly!

As the weekend draws near I am preparing myself for 'The Grizzly' race which takes place this Sunday and starts in East Devon.

I last completed the race in 2020 just a couple of weeks before our first lockdown and I feel so lucky to have the chance to take part again this year.

This is a 20 mile multi terrain event which takes the runners across beaches, along steep coast paths and through rivers and deep bogs!

In 2020 the event was so well supported with lots of fuel stops and encouragement from the locals and last time they even had the fire brigade on the finish line ready to hose you down and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this option will still be available this year!!!

So as the weekend draws near I look forward to spending the day with three good friends as we slip, slide and try to run along the trails of East Devon and enjoy the excitement of another running adventure.
