In short: Great run
In full: What great people there are in Wesham. Even though the weather was awful, they still cheered us on. And you can't beat a goody bag full of chocolates to make it all worth while. It's already in the calender for 2008.

In short: Great race
In full: This is one of the gems of the racing calendar and I would like to say well done to Wesham. Like a few others I would prefer a memento rather than the goody bag, but that is so far down my list that it is petty. I will keep coming back to this as long as I can run.

In short: Good local race
In full: Another well organised race by the Wesham RR. Only thing they can't organise was the weather but it is November. Mind you reading the Forum a few still got PB. Goody bag ok not as good as last year would prefer a momento otherwise an excellent race.

In short: Only thing I didn't enjoy yesterday was the weather early on in the race! Brilliantly marshalled and organised and the race HQ has everything you could want. Nice part of the world too. Second time out for me there, well done everyone and thanks

In short: Quite a flat race with lovely scenery (depending on the weather!!)
In full: I was really looking forward to this race as it was a flat race. However, I'm not sure why, but I found it really hard going. The weather didn't help (even though I usually like running in the rain!). I also had to stop for a few seconds. (Thank you to the runner who encouraged me on!). I didn't beat my personal best but would do it again -depending on weather! I'm sure the scenery would have been much more enjoyable without the rain. Next time, I would definitely book myself in for a post-run massage!! Thank you to all the supporters and the very encouraging marshalls. PS. Loved the Thorntons!!

In short: First class
In full: Fourth consecutive year for me at this one - there's no excuse for not enjoying the race (even the weather!) and thanks to Wesham RR again for a superbly well-organised run.
