Dad entered a race which we decided to watch. It was a marathon race, 26 miles around the Goodwood motor racing circuit on rollerblades. We managed to get to the race track just before the race was due to start, in time to see him warming up.
There were hundreds of people there all getting ready to race. At the start the fastest racers whizzed off with the slower ones still stuck on the line.
Dad managed to complete the race in 1hr and 38 minutes!
He finished 34th and we were very proud.
