In short: Breathtaking race !
In full: 5 miles uphill, including a mountain goat climb up Geoffry Hill, on icy roads with all views obscured by morning mist.
2 miles downhill at 3 mins a mile faster than normal pace ! Fantastic race, a real challenge and an exhillerating experience flying the last two downhill miles. If I ever recover from injury this and Blackpool Beach 10k will be first on my calendar every time.
