Thank you so much for having us back
it's midly undulating, there's FAR worse !! Date of review: November 4, 2007

2007 Macclesfield Half Marathon

In short: What a super event !! In full: It was our first Macclesfield HM, our 152nd HM in all
got told it was HILLY, but found it to be only slightly undulating and challenging
planned on a trot anyway, as we have only 2 weeks ago clocked Robin Hood Full in 5.07, and have another marathon in 2 weeks
The organisation and venue was most perfect
the course was simply beautiful, enjoyed it so much, the time went, the miles went, in a way, quite sorry it came to and end
if future diary will fit it in, we'll be back
We could have run Crickclade flatish HM, but decided on this challenger
everyone was just great
Our thanks to all ... Date of review: September 30, 2007

In short: 13.1 miles of pure GLORY In full: 13 miles is 13 miles, it's not everyones thing
it's an easy, very easy race compared to some
Well for us it would be, it's our way of life.
Running has given us our life back Brian Porter promised everything, and so far as i can see he delivered
It was a perfect day, perfect race, though it got warmer, and slightly more difficult as it went on...
My congratulations to all involved
For us the road show goes on week after week, race after race
Though i would strongly urge people to train regular, keep positive and eat and drink well, and build pyhsical and mental stamina, and they would find any race easy
We will return hopefully next year , but in the meantime we have another 50 plus races to think about
Many thanks to all

2006 Luton Marathon
 | | Overall score | | 80% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 60% | | PB potential | | 40% | | Atmosphere | | 60% | | Organisation | | 80% | | Value | | 100% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 60% |
In short: Tough race ... super day In full: we eventually clocked 4.36, it was tough in as much it was gale force The very day i was on form to give it hell after 21 miles, i could not battle the wind it was our 5th consecutive luton marathon,
We've clocked 4.41 in 2002, 5.03 in 2003, only 2 laps in 2004, 5.10 in 2005 and now 4.36
The race itself is a gruelling, mentally sapping 3 lapper, you have to be on the ball to start that 3rd lap ... but i went with my could'nt care less attitude, that gave me no pressure, and just run and enjoy
i've lost 18 of the best years of my life, caring for my Sick and disabled son, so, i see it as a joyfull triumphant day
hence, the reason, i screamed with joy on entering the hall afterwards
would i do it all again ... yes even in 3 months after recovery if i could
My thanks to all
For Mick n Phil That's 21 marathons,

2006 St Neots Riverside Half-Marathon
 | | Overall score | | 100% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 100% | | PB potential | | 80% | | Atmosphere | | 100% | | Organisation | | 100% | | Value | | 100% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 80% |
In short: perfect race, on a perfect day In full: This was our third consecutive St Neots half
it proved again to be a glorious run, really felt quite proud to be part of it !!
Though i could'nt push Phillip to an overall pb, time is great, but Enjoyment and safety, is far more important...
The rural countryside is stunning, It is slightly undulating at St Neots, i certainly could'nt class that as hilly in any way at all !!
many thanks to everyone for the encouragement, and St Neots for having us back
put us on 2007 list please
Lets just do it,
Bring it on
Easy...Easy...easy
Best wishes to everyone

In short: Purely Brilliant !! In full: My thanks goes to Angie & Bob, for letting Mick n Phil take part and to everyone who did their bit
it was a superb run, we had to go quietly, because we had a marathon following week
i certainly would NOT call it hilly, though opinions do vary
We just loved it, we relaxed , just felt like a most perfect day
Can't find NO problem with it at all Date of review: October 17, 2006

2006 New Balance DK 10K
 | | Overall score | | 80% | | Would you do it again? | | Yes | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 100% | | PB potential | | 60% | | Atmosphere | | 100% | | Organisation | | 100% | | Value | | 100% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 60% |
In short: Superbly brilliant, just like Brian smith In full: What a super race it is,
really made our night, the whole thing, a nice size race, so perfectly organised, by a committee, that seem to find time for everyone
You don't get that everywhere
perhaps they should get Brian and committee to organise the FLM, and really show the country how it's done !!!
if there's a better race, and better guy out there than Brian, then i'd really like someone to tell me about it !!
they really did make me and my Phil happy
overall 110 %
MANY THANKS TO YOU ALL
For making a Chroincally Sick lad and his dad very happy
Is it an all time favourite they ask below,
Where , just where could you better it !!
