In short: well organised and lovely scenery, but with some nasty hills
In full: only 1 issue with the running, at mile 17 the water station was staffed by one girl was trying really hard to keep up but couldn't cope with the demand. Not helped by some people pushing in

In short: Wind and rain
In full: I really enjoyed this. Yes it was wet, windy and very tough. The uphills were tough and the last downhill was a killer but was smiling all the way home

In short: Fast and race well organised, shame about the parking
In full: I don't like arriving at the start line in a bad mood. The race itself was great, course good and marshalls great too.
The parking (which wasn't well signed) was quite a way from the start and finish lines. The postcode on the instructions was of the start. I don't think anyone's planning to send them a letter so why not put the postcode of the car park location?

In short: Hot but still great
In full: Did this for the second year and just, possible more, as impressed. The erratic weather spoilt my PB hopes but I can't hold Halstead Runners responsible for that.
