Rob leads the team success
Leighton Buzzard Athletic club has always prided itself on turning all athletics into a social event. The Wednesday training runs always lead to a couple of drinks in the pub. A race that is any distance away means a meal on the way home and a four race series in Lanzarote means a winter holiday in the sunshine.
A much reduced but rather jolly LBAC crew winged it's way to Lanzarote for the 2005 Challenge (well, for the sun loungers, la santa sandwiches and general frivolity, mostly...). For some the excitement started well before usual with our esteemed club captain, Tom Foobar May, managing to continue extending his lead in the tactical error trophy stakes by failing to wake up for the taxi to the airport, despite having his bedroom window crashed on and most of the club calling his phones.
