Photographed by Serena Brown Don’t do it, don’t do it, don’t do it. I did it. I entered the competition I knew would make me feel awkward as soon as I shared it on my Instagram Stories. The competition in question? An opportunity to win one of Charlotte Simone's beautiful Penny Lane-style coats from the latest drop. They sell out instantly, they’re all over my Instagram feed and I have to get my hands on one. Maybe this time I’ll get lucky (I won’t). Maybe this time I’ll win (I didn’t).

It takes on average between four and five hours to complete the race, although some elite athletes finish in two hours—and it takes some people much longer.
