I travelled up to Glasgow at the weekend to attend the BBC Sports Personality of the Year awards at the SSE Hydro. I went into the arena quite early to have a look and was amazed to find I was seated in the very front row! Not only that, but I was sitting next to the beautiful Victoria Pendleton.
It was a really great evening and it was brilliant to see all the nominees up on the stage right in front of me including the overall winner, Lewis Hamilton, and Prince Harry too, who presented an award. I was in the presence of both sporting and real royalty!
After the awards there was a party for all the guests, where I was able to catch up with several people I don't see too often and also saw Clare Balding again, twice in a week, she's a great woman and I really love her friendly, warm style. I managed to get a photo with her and two other athletes and friends, Hannah and Ben.
After that it was back home and back to the business of training, with Christmas coming, I need to put in the hours to compensate!
