In short: The hardest race I have ever done.
In full: Steep hills, bogs, tight and twisting turns, streams and woodland paths. Surrey Hills had everything.

I expected it to be hard, especially in the heat and it didn't disappoint any any way. The sense of achievement crossing the finishing the race was enormous.

I don't know whether the extra water station was always going to be there or was due to the weather but it was a welcome addition.

I am already looking forward to Bordon in November!

In short: Wind, rain and great support
In full: I live on the outskirts of Portsmouth and it took me 1hr and fifteen minutes to get onto the common. Must be all of a 5 mile trip. Fortunately left as soon as i finished and misssed the traffic - back home and in a warm bath 15 minutes later!
My second attempt a a 'competitive' run after the Chichester Priory 10k earlier in the month and managed a time of 1hr 8 mins. What a feeling turning onto the seafront into the wind knowing that there was the better part of 2 miles straight into it!
The support all the way round was superb - encouragement there when needed
