In short: intro to racing
In full: This was my first ever race. Very cold but bright sunny day and the starter was right when he said they don't "do" rain.
I guessed from the number of competitors and previous comments this would feel very clubby and it was. We weren't made to feel unwelcome, but we obviously stood out as newbie non-club members and I felt the host club members could have made the effort to speak to us. Aside from that, very well organised and the marshalls were great, cheering us along the way. The course wasn't as twisty as I was anticipating and running in a straight line is boring so the turns were welcome. Lovely and flat too.
This was a good/local/cheap introduction to racing for me and I look forward to more races and Perivale 2013.
