In short: Do not miss this race, its well worth travelling for!
In full: A great PB catching course, brilliant support from the roadside teams, the Marshalls rocked! Especially the crew from local team 'Harwich Runners'!! It was well organised, excellent parking facilities and cagering arrangements, no medals but the hat will help in this snowy season! A great turnout on a beautiful, perfect running day made the atmosphere brilliant. A big well done to Great Bentley Running Club, this is definitely worth putting on your 'must run' list!
