Saturday saw my longest ultramarathon so far starting at a beautiful village called Compton near Oxford in the UK. It took us around some of the most picturesque villages and hills. You can read the race report here Enjoy

Cordial From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Squash (drink), an extremely sweet non-alcoholic fruit flavoured drink concentrate that is diluted with water to taste. It is most popular in the UK, Australia and New Zealand. ________ I'm imagining McDonald's orange drink. mmmmm... McDonald's orange drink! (*dripping with sarcasm of course*) Great RR and photo's. Photo's in RR's are awesome. I wanna go to UK. Congratz on the race!
