Knaresborough Bed Race 2013

Went with my family to the Knaresborough Bed Race yesterday to support AA Office Furniture's entry (bed No.61) and they completed it in an excellent time of 19 minutes (very impressive for their first time, as the fastest time it has ever been run is in 14 minutes). 

It was a beautiful sunny day and there were thousands of people lining the streets to watch the parade and the race.  There were 90 beds in total, all decorated to a high standard.  There were recurring themes, aliens, knights and leprechauns for example, and most of the runners had gone all out with their costumes.  I have posted some pictures below so you can get a flavour of the day.

It was a wonderful day out and we will definitely be going again next year, who knows maybe one of my two will want to be the one to sit on the bed next time!
