In short: NO wind this year, fantastic
In full: A good race, sorry it will be in Sept next year, I will probably be on holiday. It can be windy in Sept too. Definitly a pb course. It was a bit icy in IBM park, but took care whilst on the icy patches. A well run race.

In short: A good fast 5 miler. Good organisation. Althought not sure why it's named after the boat, went no where near it.

In short: 2 seconds over my pb
In full: This is the 2nd year I have run this race. Today was perfect running weather, unlike last year when we were all nearly blown over the sea wall. Great race with good pb potential. Be there next year :-)
