In short: Decent race....plus a PB so musn't grumble.
In full: Nice little race around rural Ashford, felt like a very fast first 4k as it seemed to be either flat or downhill. But....what goes down must come up! Sure enough there was a challenging uphill section at 7k that seemed to take it out of everyone as well as it being quite a hot afternoon. Can't complain about the organisation at all, everything went smoothly even the much mentioned car parking problems. Due to the change of date I don't think it was a full field of runners which made the start less congested as I'd heard it has been previously. Well worth the drive down the M20 and would come back next year.

In full: Wish all races could be like this one. Lovely scenic course on closed country lanes, which although testing in parts allows the possibility of PB's.
Well organised throughout and the jaffa cakes and other goodies at the finish were a nice touch.
Great stuff and will be back next year for sure
