Run2the80's(Day2)
Day2 started with a slap up breakfast (for those who could stomach it). The "Day 2" envelopes were handed out along with some very fragile Rubik's cubes (more on this later). We checked out of the hotel and all met up in the car park where we had our first casualty of any Run......Wendy (half of Thelma and Louise) had to retire due to back problems.

The next thing to do was to hand out the packs but with a strange bottle marked up "Peckham Spring".....???? One final group picture and it was to the cars. First stop was the Little Thief er I mean Chef on the A38 heading towards Burton, behind this the teams found a canal marina where the next clue/numbe...
With such a cool M:I-like cinematic, this retro commercial of import cars truly rocks! I can feel myself dancing to the beat right now.

I feel the vibe of the retro-80s whenever this song is played It’s a song befiting for a Back to the Future trailer. This was the time when cars were still on the road to being hi-tech!
