In short: 2012 may be the lst time if the proposed housing development and relocation of the Frys Club ahppen on plan
In full: Its a long drag up the hill out of Keynsham nbut not so nad once you get to the turn before the 5K mark. Havinving only run the Keynsham and Pensford 10Ks I'm sure there must be 'easier' ones!Maybe I am a sub 48 runner really......

In short: You can't rely on the weather and this year it was abysmal but still a PB for me!
In full: I didn't pre-register and the weather was just awful so that tells you something about me and the race. Me, I'm in training for a bigger race and needed the notorious Pepper Shells hill to guage my fitness by, and the race how well organised and friendly it seems to me. I haven't run many 10 races (only my 5th but) but knocked 2 mins 2 secs of my PB for any, and an amazing 3 mins 50 seconds off my previous Pensford race PB in 2010. How? 5 Kg lighter perhaps part of the reason but I really do believe beetroot juice played a very significant part! Viva betterave! Allez Le Transbaie
