There's more snow in Tynemouth, so YC settled for a run up and down the banks by Collingwood's Monument rather than venturing forth on to the icy roads of Northumberland. Afterwards he watched the Edinburgh cross-country races on the TV. The BBC proved that it is no exception to the cult of celebrity obsession by focusing on Kenenisa Bekele. The double Olympic champion thanked them by finishing fourth behind three Kenyans. There were British runners in the race, but where they finished remained a mystery to viewers: the Beeb chose to show a panoramic shot of Arthur's Seat rather than the Brits crossing the finishing line. At least Bekele was gracious in his post-race interview, commenting: "I'm glad YC chose to run at Collingwood's Monument, otherwise I might have finished fifth".
