Story

Robin's Painful Plod

So, the plod is over—not only did I finish, but I'm still alive and recovering really quickly.

Did I enjoy it? No. Would I do it again? Yes! (My name is already down for 2026.)

Highlights of the day: meeting my family at the end with a cup of Assam tea! But also running through the middle of a band of drummers (loud and amazing) and doing the same through a troupe of Morris dancers (charming).

If you are reading this, then you supported me with a donation: if I know who you are, I will try to thank you personally. If I don't get to do that, or I don’t know who you are, then—thank you. You didn’t have to, but it is and will always be appreciated.
