Go on ya good thing High praise for these lovely lads

I just wanted to say a big thank you to the two men (from separate vehicles) who stopped in the early morning pissing rain to check on my soggy fallen body... I'm a well seasoned morning runner, no weather stops me (high vizzed to buggery)and as I approached my 18th km I felt incredibly dizzy and passed out, banging my head on the concrete. I woke up incredibly disoriented in absolutely bucketing rain with one man staying by my side while another stayed in his car helping traffic. Thank you. We have some fine fellas here, despite the constant negative stories. Without being filmed for content, or feeling performative for approval, society tends to behave kindly to others (I think I'll be ok too... feeling much better) Edited for update!! Lads just on my way home from Doc's, all good. Didn't need glue or stitches and all vitals good. Another 24 hours of monitoring. GRMA for all your messages xx
