In short: Shame about the results
In full: This is the second time I've done this race and the second time the rsults have been cocked up. The first time it was in the kids 3K race, when one of my children didn't get a time and the other one didn't appear at all.

This time I don't appear in the results, which is gutting as it was a PB - not a great time for most of those there. I'm never going to be a winner but just shows they're not bothered about the also rans.

In short: It get 's people running
In full: Scottish Mike, you obviously got a different runners pack to the rest of us as ther are 4 wave starts. the problem is because it does what I think it should - get people having a go, the same people don't know in January what time they're can do in May, so put completely the wrong time when they get their place, I have no problem with it.

Let's face it Great Runs have their problems. but organisation isn't one of them.
