Was a volunteer at the Cardiff Bay 10K run. We parked for free at the Red Dragon Shopping Centre, a five minute walk from Roald Dahl Plas. I'm finally getting to know how driving in Cardiff hangs together.
The weather was not the greatest, but in the bag drop we were under cover. It was great to be in the thick of the action, being situated opposite the Millennium Centre and within site of the start/finish line. However, that meant we were short of space.
The cadets at the elite end of the drop wouldn't listen to advice about getting things in number order as they went along, as did the women in the bays on either side of me.
It was chaos with long lines of athletes and I ended up at the back of one of the pens trying my best to help out. Lots of the first time bad drop volunteers will not be doing it again!
