Hello..
I am finding my way around the world wide web and all things blog related. How lovely is it to find all these blogs in blog land!? I love discovering new blogs and reading blogs from all around the world.
It is my first ever week of joining in with The Gallery photo blog hop and just hope I do this right :) Ha!!
This week's theme is Tree:
My tree photo is of The Table Top Tree. A tree in between Nottingham and Worksop.
It is on the A60 road from Nottingham and near to the town of Mansfield. Have you heard of this tree before?
I really would like a seasonal picture of this tree.4 seasons would be great!! |
This tree itself reminds me of the time I ran The Mansfield Half Marathon. I did this race on the 27th June 2010.
Everything thing was going great until I turned this corner at around 7 miles mark
This was my 2nd half marathon and thought I knew everything that I needed to know about running at the start of this race.
Turns out I did not!!
Having said that I had never trained in hot weather before.
The day I ran it, it was the hottest day of the year so far.
I dehydrated, got a migraine and had tunnel vision. All starting at this point of the race for the next 6ish miles.
It was a nightmare.
But...
I did complete.....
A kind old man even borrowed me his cap to finish the race.
Next time I will know to hydrate properly, wear sunglasses and a cap in hot weather and not too set off too fast!!
Hay hoo it is not the tree's fault, is it!?
Anyway, such a cool tree.
Don't you think so?
Do any trees bring back memories for you?
Thanks for stopping by here today and I hope to see you soon.
