In short: Fast & Flat
In full: Definite PB promise although not many 8 milers to compare it to. Good speed training for any events planned that are that little bit longer - 10m & HM's

In short: Always a winner for the New Year fitness campaign
In full: This is the one race in the calendar that I always make the effort to attend. Wicked chill factor this year and warmed up at around 7 miles ! Well marshalled and they are a credit to the club, always clapping and encouraging. Only problem this year was nothing to do with Lliwswerry Runners.......The leisure centre was closed so a bit of a hike before and after race to the Newport stadium. Happy Silver Jubilee Lliswerry Runner's....here's to the next 25 !

In short: What a fantastic race! 8 miles on a completely flat course is a great distance to run and there was a nice feeling about it.
In full: Would love to do this one again next year!!! One of my favourite races (in my limited experience).
