Running.... and cake!

This weekend held the 1st anniversary celebrations of Poole parkrun. For those who aren't familiar with the concept - it's great - you turn up at 9 a.m. on a Saturday morning and run 5k - it's free and you get an official time when you register for a barcode.

I generally tend to use parkrun as a justification for eating cake and this Saturday was a complete cakefest. Many of the runners had baked goodies for the event and it was a brilliant turnout.

It was a well attended event with top athletes running such as Liz Yelling, Martin Yelling and Steve Way.

The highlight for us was our Adidas adiSTAR Salvation 3 running shoe cake - it created a lot of attention and fantastic feedback. We even appeared in the Bournemouth Daily Echo.
