It’s 5am Saturday morning. We are up and on the long road
north e.g. the M6.
First stop Preston and a near underwater Parkrun. I drop L
off and hope it’s on.
Second stop Bilsborrow and an equally underwater dog show,
which is thankfully indoors but the access roads and the surrounding fields are
well flooded. I make it there with two minutes to spare to walk our first
course.
The rain is now incessant, I pity anyone parkrunning because
the run does go ahead.
At the dog show, run one was very good but MD missed a
contact. I thought he got it but the judge disagreed. We come 5th
even with those 5 faults, we would have won had he got that contact.
After I’ve walked my next course I head out into the monsoon to
collect L from the bus. However I’m a bit late and she has already started
swimming for it. I manage to rescue her before she gets too far out of her depth.
In the afternoon we record a decent 9th place and
then he leads the jumping for ages but our time is finally beaten. We finish 2nd.
Not a bad day all in all.
In the evening we head out for a few beers in the Blue Monkey
and the Borlase.
