In short: Another excellent Cleethorpes NYD race. Shame it didn't rain for the whole race cos I slowed down when it stopped. Good organisation. Good course well marshalled.

In short: Oh dear, chaos trying to get into the car park, start delayed by 30 minutes, and completety useless funnel finish system again. A great race ruined again by very poor organisation. And no team prizes.

In short: Reasonably well organised apart from the dreadful queues to give in you bag and (even worse) getting it back afterwards. Quite a delay at the first proper obstacle, but this is probably intentional to spread the field out for the other obstacles.

In short: A first race from the new stadium in Boston. The course is flat (naturally) and easy. Good chance of a PB when there's no wind.

In short: Lack of water stations on a very hot day made for problems for some runners including me. Otherwise well organised.

In short: Well documented problems with the finish system and with missing mile markers marred what was otherwise a well organised race. Excellent PB potential, nice finish in Lincoln Castle.

In short: Fair chance of PBs on the right day. Road out from start and undulations in Clumber Park make it challenging but the downhill bit at the end helps when you need it.
