In short: hilly and muddy but a good race!
In full: A very undulating course with a nasty hill at the 6 mile point which took the wind out of my sails a bit but i still managed to do my usual 10 mile time and even came 3rd lady which was great! Was a bit disapointed with the memento though, perhaps a medal next time would be better especially after all those hills and mud! Thanks to Stone MM for the race though.

In short: Tough race in the heat but well organised and a great t-shirt!
In full: This was my second Dorking 10 and was even hotter this year. Not a PB day given the heat but the race was well organised and the commentator was good. Did manage to win a trophy but was disapointed to hear that they would have to post it as they didn't have them there. However despite this i would like to thank Dorking AC for a well organised morning and a great t-shirt (love it!). Let's hope it's not so hot next year!

In short: well organised race with plenty of ups and some very steep downhills!
In full: I was expecting much steeper uphills but wasn't too challenged by the hills on the course, in fact I felt that the downhills were steeper and quite heavy on the shins! Well organised race although presentation took a while to start but overall a good race - thank you Alton Runners. Nice medal too.

In full: A great race for me as I got a trophy that I totally wasn't expecting and a brand new PB! Really nice course, only a couple of hills but i've had a lot worse and the track finish made me feel like i was back at school! Really felt the need to sprint!! Good t-shirt too - well done Salisbury ARC, thanks!

In short: Great 10 mile race despite the cold!
In full: Really enjoyed this race once we got going (not sure why the start was delayed) and the route was ideal for a PB, what I would consider as flat compared to some hills I've run up! Great goody bag and although it was a bit pricey I did buy a hoody. Great goody bag too but as a child of the 80s I had no idea bum bags had come back in fashion - do people still use these?!! Perhaps a medal next time please! Otherwise a really good and very well organised race - thank you Reading Road Runers, well done!

2009 Gosport Half-Marathon
| | Overall score | | 80% | | Would you do it again? | | Maybe | | | | Details: | | Scenery | | 60% | | PB potential | | 80% | | Atmosphere | | 60% | | Organisation | | 60% | | Value | | 60% | | Beginner-friendliness | | 60% |
In short: Good flat course with definate PB potential
In full: Had a good race and got a new PB despite being worried that I wasn't quite at my best this week! Very well marshalled EXCEPT when I was briefly sent the wrong way by a young marshall who signalled me to go right and looked at me as he did when everyone else was going left. Only went a few metres before I turned round but it could have been disastrous!! Still managed to catch up with the people i'd been running with and I think that spurred me on to do the last 3 miles in a really fast time! Other than that a really well organised race with a great goody bag and nice t-shirt available to buy too. Well done Gosport Road runners - will be back next year.

In full: I had a great race as I came in first lady and was very pleased with my lovely glass trophy!!! Thanks Tadley runners! Course was really nice and well marshalled and facilities were good too. The glass memento was a nice touch too - better than a medal! All in all a great race for me and the sun came out too!

Would definately run again.
