In short: The Swamp at the end was dangerous
In full: A race that started promptly. It was a long route thorough woods, then a field. However, the swamp in the X - Zone was like quicksand. Also, was that sewage we were wading through just before the end of it ? I need to re-build my confidence because of getting sucked into the mud and panicking as no one could hear me or help me.

In short: The Devil went down to Longmoor, he was looking for some souls to steal........
In full: First time entry. Excellent race, I impressed myself with both gun and chip time. Not fast, but enought to make ME proud. Once in lifetime run. I've never run up a moving landslide before ! The Devil on stilts was excellent - good fun.

In short: First GSR, First 10 mile race
In full: Excellent experience. Thanks to the people of Portsmouth who stood for hours in the pouring rain to cheer on total strangers ! Shame about the idiot spectators who INSISTED on crossing the road at all points of the course during the race meaning WE had to avoid THEM. Where were the marshalls ? Where was the pedestrian's common sense ? Spectators were edging on to the road creating a long line funnel as they edged in front of the person on their left to get a better view at about mile 6. Plus the wobbly 12 year old on his wobbly push bike who was into wobbling into the oncoming path of the runners. Respect the Run - yeah spectators could use that too.

In short: Excellent organisation. Thanks Linda, thanks Toby. Good and varied terrain. I enjoyed running around the ponds especially the little wooden planks over the streams !
In full: Good fun race which I had trained for and my training paid off. I like cross country and this had great scenery. I'm not a fast runner, my aim is to enjoy it and I did !
