In short: mad mud and more mud!
In full: Did I mention mud? Thanks to all the people who pulled me out of the chest deep mud, I'm only little and I wouldn't have made it home without you!!!
The race was really well organised, there was a great atmosphere, it was exceptionally tough due to the horrendous weather we have had recently! Overall a good race, being short I'm not sure I would want to do it again after so much rain but under nornal conditions it would have been great!

In short: Flat, fast run in warm and sunny weather through meadows with buttercups all around. No. Not really.
In full: When the smiling marshall pulled my tortured body from the chest high mud in the umpteenth bog of the run i knew my pb was safe....
