In short: Loved it !
In full: ....As much as last years race (which due to oddities in the calendar was actually run in January 2005)
The down side for me was that it was my worst time this year (all other races have seen me set PBs).
The organisation again was wonderful and I look forward to starting the New Year by raising a glass of red to all runners everywhere,whatever their times and "abilities" !!.
See you next year !!
