Who ever said that ultra-running isn’t a glamorous sport?

Courtesy of Alan, here’s a photo (not of William it seems (!) but rather of the Japanese lady entrant) at the official pre-race weigh in. As you can see, here she’s sporting a pair of stylish pink “clogs”  – no doubt sure to be a trend setter this season, you can probably expect to see many runners copying this fashion statement over the next few months. Or possibly not.

For the benefit of all the budding ultra-runners out there I should probably point out that there is quite likely to be a change of shoes before actually running…

All the best,

Shaun
