In short: Good race; nothing special but there aren't many 6 milers that are.
In full: Shame local youths nicked the 5 mile marker; felt the path from 1000 to 2000 metres was a tad narrow; also could have done with some marshalls around the bollards at about 600metres.

In short: Very good challenging half-marathon.
In full: Excellent organisation; quality t-shirt as momento shame the weather didn't give the race the respect it deserves.

In short: Tough as ever - back next March.
In full: Excellent race that continues to live up to it's deserved cult reputation. Requires marathon fitness to get round in one piece but here in the Midlands it is virually impossible to train for everything the Grizzly might throw at you.

In short: 1st time at the Grizzly in some of the worst conditions.. Got round in a reasonable time despite dodgy hamstring. Will be back to have a better crack at it.

In short: Might be my own clubs race but definitely a credit to the organisers. Good pre race info. Got some good flat straights as well as the odd lump.
