THere's going to be a huge gathering of our community at Church Stretton this weekend of course, and I know everyone will pay their respects in the time honoured way at the start. I dare say the good people at Mercia are already planning for this. Stef mentioned wearing something too, a ribbon i think (so many pages back!
). This is a nice idea and I wondered about everyone wearing something, anything as a personal tribute and mark of respect? I'll wear a black buff as an armband or wrist band i think in honour of Daz during my leg (pairs, leg 2) and will think of him when i start to wuss it and back off on a descent or start moaning for my partner to slow down on the climb to Pole Bank!
I suppose it doesn't have to be black, a ribbon or anything prescribed - just a personal, visible tribute. It would be really something to look around at the dozens of runners and to know at glance they are all thinking of Daz and wishing he was there, somewhere ahead blazing a trail on the Long Mynd.
