The ColorRun London 2013

When I first heard about The ColorRun back in April, I knew I had to do it. I have never been a huge fan of running (or anything cardio-related, for that matter) There's something about the sound and feel of my feet slapping against concrete/grass/treadmill which makes me stir-crazy. And yet, after hearing the the 'Happiest 5k On the Planet' boasts 60% of runners who have NEVER attempted 5k before, I felt like perhaps this was the run for me.

So my sister and I coughed up £25 for entry into the event (a share of which goes to Stand Up To Cancer... it's all about the charidee, man!) before donning our bright-white ColorRun t-shirts and pulling on our sneakers. We were ready. 

Forte's Ice Cream, Llandudno

Once again, I am here to pay homage to a delicious dessert provider which has been a family tradition of our since before I was even born!

You will find Forte's Cafe Restaurant on the main street of Llandudno which runs parallel with the beach. Easily recognizable as it is always full of people with smiles on their faces, Forte's has been around since 1926 (!) and once you step inside and try a mouthful of their yummy chocolate sundaes, it is easy to understand why this place has stood the test of time.
