In short: Should be advertised as a multi terrain race
In full: My hopes of a late season -and hard trained for- vet 10k pb slipped away from me in the mud. Although the course is fairly flat, very heavy rain had turned the farm tracks that make up a large part of the route into deep puddles and mud. The return leg of the out and back course, after taking the traffic of all the runners on the outward leg, was slippy and where I hoped to be gaining some time as I neared the finish, I was losing time as I slithered about.

In short: Terrible weather - all else fantastic!
In full: Loved it - first time I'd done the East Neuk 10k. Feared this morning it might even get cancelled, drove up from Strathkinness through all sorts of floods and mud. Thankfully the weather eased up for the hour or so of the race - my time was only slightly slower than I'd hoped for though. Overal, I loved it - really friendly, well organised, and seeing my five and three years old boys getting medals and a milky way in the fun run after was the icing on the cake. Thanks to Anster Haddies, the polis, the ambulance people, scouts, cubs and everyone else, and for the rest of the competitors for not staying away on such a dreich day.

In short: Good atmosphere, good feed at finish, over 300 finishers, and I got a PB into the bargain
