Friendly. Great cakes. BIG hill. Satisfaction rating high- if only because you can say you beat the hill!
2012 the weather was atrocious and that is not exaggerating. Rain and wind with a chill factor of below freezing. Despite it all I managed a PB! Perhaps it was the beetroot juice, the abstention from alcohol for weeks, or even because of the weather. Whatever the reason the PB probably does cloud my judgement a tiny bit.......but hey I will do it again.
PB 1:44:55. A momento of any 'permanent' nature welcome, even wood, although we have been 'conditioned to expect metal. Well organised and yes the kids and the unofficial water stop near the finish was both welcome and 'cute' Thanks kids for jelly bean too!
