In short: 5 time for me love this one :)
In full: This was the 5th time for me and it is one of my favourite races...I am not a front runner and love this one as it is hard but fun....the only shame this year is that the mars bars and juice had already run out when I got to the stations when I spoke with the marshalls about this they informed me that they had not been given the normal numbers.....as there were plently of walkers behind me who would still need to rely on the stations it was a shame....the first station that had a mars bar was the 22mile station... could the organisers look into this as we had paid the same money as the front runners.....that is my only moan if I had of known that I couldn't rely on the stations I would have been more prepared......the marashalls where fantastic as normal well done to you all....will be back next year :)

In short: Lovely mug at the end with a Medal...first time I have run this in dry conditions :)
In full: I think the organisers need to consider getting some port a loos......only 2 out of 3 loos working in the ladies this meant long queues for those of us who had a long journey to get to thanet. The race was great as it was the first time I have run this without there being awful wet weather....was near the back but didn't feel under any pressure thanks to all the front runners who said well done to me ....where were the jelly babies this year??.....thank you to all the marshalls who gave up their morning.
