In short: Brilliant - as always!
In full: Brackla Harriers can again award themselves a huge collective pat on the back. I've been doing this race for years now and it never fails to really hit the spot. The sand dunes are a real torture, but you don't concern yourself about timing on this race, just get on and enjoy the fantastic route and spectacular scenery (sewage works excluded!). I especially like how they don't get bogged down trivia such as "Free T shirt". If you really want a souvenir T shirt, you can buy a really nice one with the names of all pre-entries on the back. The souvenir slate coaster was a nice touch -very Welsh! Looking forward to next year.
