In short: for a first time race it was great! Such a good atmosphere
In full: What a hoot! The RD put this race on at very very short notice. I take my Santa hat off to him. It was a great fun day in horizontal rain in a near mud bath, dressed as ill fitting Santa. I came second to last, but wouldnt have it anyother way. What fun! I do hope they do it again next year. Maybe a change of route or even venue, but I would do it again even if it didnt change. Great for beginners to up their mileage. Super happy marshalls and mince pies and Mulled Wine to finish. Happy Christmas! (oh and the medal is possibly the prettiest medal of my whole hoard)
