SOMETHING’S BUGGING ME

-

I refer to a letter you published (RW, Nov 2016) from a runner who completed a six-mile race with his two-year-old daughter in a pushchair. How wonderful he must have felt when his daughter was awarded first female. I wonder if the first running female to finish

was similarly elated? And did the father – let alone the race director – ever think of the safety implicatio­ns of a two-year-old in the middle of a race? So perhaps your readers could answer the question – was this a great thing to do, or just plain stupid? Roland Gibbard, by email
