Been doing some training runs on parts of the course - its going to be an epic run. The river level was up over the stepping stones on Saturday morning so I took the bridge over the Mole and headed up the steps to reach the top of Box Hill. It was a great view from the top. On race day you get the Box Hill climb out of the way early on. Its definitely the toughest of the three climbs. Then I tacked on the ascent from Denbies to Ranmore before heading home. A 13.5 mile loop took just under 2 hrs. As a guide I ran New Forest 1/2 in 1 hr 33 a few weeks back! That's how tough this race is going to be.
