Trick or Treat Engagement?

Saturday night family banter ;-)
Another week back after our Great Wall Charity Challenge and I still can't stop thinking about the amazing experience.  More so, it has helped me reflect and think about what I want in life.  I'm still challenging myself to my love for running, swimming, cycling etc (whilst contemplating on another big challenge of running the himalayas and/or an Ironman....) BUT I'm hoping to cut back on some of the extra duties and tasks I get caught up in over the year(s).  Although I spent the full weekend at a Scottish Athletics coaching course, I also made time for going out for celebratory post-challenge cocktails and dinner at the Ugadale with my close family.  It was just lovely - time to eat good food, drink good wine and have good banter.   I am looking forward to doing more of this in the future!

On another note, on reflection....

One of my best buddies Johnny proposed to his long term girlfriend Eilidh after one of my biggest challenges of 2014 - at the finish line of the London marathon.  Fantastic!

One of our new trekking friends Steven proposed to his long term girlfriend Nicola at the end of our Great Wall of China challenge.  Amazing!

Who is going to be the lucky 3rd set and propose after my next challenge?  I'm doing Tin Farm 5 this Sunday anyone?!  ;-)
