In short: Excellent, stomach heaving, run over the south downs. Not for the faint of heart.
In full: Excellent race. Everyone was made to feel very welcome by Dr Rob and his family. Challenging. Muddy. Makes you spit and curse. I particularly appreciated the opportunity to do a run through before race day with Dr Rob who had invited all those who had entered a few weeks prior to the event. The race fee is higher than most, but half of this goes to charity - can't be a bad thing.

In short: Hard - but I wouldn't have missed it
In full: I felt like I had achieved all my goals for the year in one hit - giving to charity, training hard beforehand (and beating all the girlies!) I was glad to have left something in the tank for the 275 (I didn't count them on the day) steps, only to be super-cooled coming down that last hill! It's a shame there are not more events like it - I'll definitely be there for the Munro - equipped with more grippy trainers... Heartfelt thanks to Dr Rob and the team for the run-through on the 18 Dec and on the day.

In short: A painful intro to the new year. Never been happier or prouder to finish a race.
In full: Hard but reward start to the new year.
Great buzz around the course: fellow runners, marshalls and spectators all very supportive.
