Goodbye Rosalina, goodbye
A close running friend is making the move 'down Saarf'. A very special mention.
Apart from missing her hugely, the poor woman has suffered years of running excursions, trips, and related activities. We were part of a running club, we were not part of a club. We were trying our hand at city marathons... We were not. We were attempting trail ultras... We didn't quite get there. You name it, we were convinced at one point or another that it was for us. It's certainly been varied. Plus very very fun.
Roz has also sat through countless photos of running events, listened to endless stories of running days / kit / worries. She has literally picked me up along the roadside after long runs, always with extra jumpers / coffee / sandwiches. What an absolute star.
Whether her interest has been genuine or well feigned, I will never know, but it has been an era of generating many stories and good memories.
We will plan our next running trip soon. I will miss my running soundboard. Good luck.
Keep running, Roz.
