In short: playful hills, nice cup of tea
In full: Really well organised race. It helps that it's set in a school, plenty of shelter, and a good value canteen selling post race tea and excellent cakes!! The course is a bit challenging with the odd hill but beautiful scenery took the edge off. Very well orgnaised, plenty of marshalls, will definitely try again next year :-)

In short: 2nd time running this event & unlike last year no disaster picking number up
In full: Good event to start the year off, 1st run since New York & oh boy could i tell. I felt like dying up the first hill & up to mile 4 i was going to quit & take up fat club but no stuck with it, felt ok after that even sprinted the last 5 metres (god im good) very well organised, weather was ok compared to recently, will be back next year to yet again burn the Christmas fatness off.
