In short: Very good, well done Fenland runners
In full: Not done this before but well worth the journey. Well organised, flat apart from the bits over the bypass. Without the headwind over the fen would be a very fast course

In short: Well organised, friendly race
In full: Good Marshalling, this is a a nice race round the countryside. The Fen landscape is rather open and exposed, so there is norespite fromt he wind, but as it's as flat as a flat thing flattened not surprising.
Only thing that marred my race was yet again having to deal with inconsiderate elite runners cooling down on the race course, getting in the way of us slower runners still racing.

In short: There's wind in them thar Fens
In full: An absolutely gorgeous day with temperature well into the teens. A vicious South Westerly to level the playing field and enthusiastic marshals.

In short: Flat? Yes. Windy? Hell yes!!
In full: Pleasant 1 lap route through rural Fen country, 2 flyovers crossing major road are the only inclines, but it was quite windy on the 2nd half. Excellent organising and marshalling from Fenland Runners. Great selection of cakes at the finish. L/sleeve t-shirt too. Hope to be back next year.

In full: well organised race and nice t shirt, shame about the head wind for most of the second half of the course this year but thats october in the fens! Many thanks to the fenland runner who kept me going for the last 2 miles when i wanted to slow down, will be back next year to better my time
