In short: The usual chance to clear out the Xmas cobwebs!
In full: Although I have no particular issues with the organisation, as this race has grown over the years, a little more professionalism is probably called for. I did feel sorry for the runners at the back of the 5k course. There are never enough loos at any event, that's why I bring my own!!! Exit was quite clearly signed and worked well. Weather was glorious, it just warmed up enough. All you moaners, please remember that this is very much a charity event and treat it as good fun and a way of clearing the Xmas excesses. Have a really good year!

In short: Excellent end of year race
In full: Perfect conditions for a pb! Knocked nearly 3 mins off last years time (also a pb) As previously, parking was a bit of a problem, certainly pays to be early! Very friendly atmosphere.

2008 Saab Salomon Turbo X, Bordon

In short: Good fun
In full: Having to concentrate on where you are going takes your mind of the pain of running, so generally I prefer xc running to roads. Really enjoyed this, would still have been good without the turbo zone. As I have hashed through these bogs, I was aware of what to expect. From a safety point of view, more marshals to help in emergency on the bogs would be a good idea, it was fine where there was a group going through together, but anybody on there own would be in danger. I could cope without the food van, but I do feel that we are owed a pair of socks,particularly as the entry fee is very high.

In full: First time I've done this, probably not quite as hard as Terminator and Rough n Tumble 10. Will definitely be back. Organisation and marshalling excellent.

2008 New Forest Half Marathon

In short: Too much Town, not enough Forest!
In full: It seems a shame to run through so much built up area when there are miles of open forest. Otherwise well organised race, plenty of marshals and drink stations. Lots of friendly support, but too hot! Can't blame the organisers for that though! Queue at Hog roast so long that I gave up on that! Probably be back, although I definitely prefer off road courses.
