In short: Excellent start to 2009
In full: Always enjoy this flat and fast run even with lack of sleep. Age is catching up with me though as I was lapped but hey-ho, it'll happen to them one day! Although traffic seems to get busier every year most are pretty patient and there also seemed to be more spectators/supporters. Always well organised and puts a smug smile on your face - thanks Cleethorpes AC.

In short: Marshalls Fantastic! But markers in miles not km
In full: Very flat but dodging traffic and pedestrians sometimes, Marshalls were great, why mile markers in a 10k race? Nice T shirt, would do this again. Smell of fish and chips near the finish cruel

In short: What a fast first mile...
In full: It was freezing foggy flat and calm. I knocked 40 seconds off my PB, having also scored a PB the previous year. Everyone started fast and just kept going.... We all just looked at each other, shook our heads and said "too fast" as we clocked the time at the first mile. I'll bet there were lots of PBs today.
You can tell it's a good race when the "hill" that caught you out last year seems to have disappeared!
The Coffee lady was ever so pleasant and friendly, and Fish & Chips in Cleethorpes are always superb.
