In short: I got the spoon! Not sure my legs loved this as much as I did...
In full: Well worth the drive from Oxfordshire for. A great start to the New Year. The other runners were so encouraging to me (I don't normally see anyone after the first mile of a race!). The marshalls were great, thanks for waiting around in the cold for me. Loved the soup and cheese roll at the end. I didn't get the fiver in my cracker either (I wonder if it's a myth?). Love the t-shirt and bumbag. Carrot is in my cupboard and spoon pride of place in the display cabinet. Hope to see you next year (if you'll have me!) Dr Robert & team!

In short: The most friendly atmosphere of any event I've been in.
In full: A genuine tought course, the steps at the end are murder. But a really well run friendly rewarding race. Great t-shirt too.

In short: Brilliant hangover cure
In full: Thanks to Dr Rob for organising the race again, and in particular a big thankyou to the marshalls, easily the friendliest and most encouraging group I've ever encountered. A great way to start the New Year!
