In short: I Raided the Ropsley Half Mararhon (13 .7 mile) Challenge!!!
In full: Wel what can I say regarding this event in comparison to other reviews? Very very challenging and not for the faint hearted!!! I have a coup,e of half marathon runs under my belt which I found invaluable to enable me to complete this tough challenge! To start off with it was very cold and running through the fields which felt like you were going to twist your ankles and had to be very careful as well as trying to keep your pace going. Yes it was a major sense of achievement when I completed it!

I would definitely do it again! The organizations were very good but was directed on a couple of occasions by the regular Ropsley runners that were very helpful giving a lot of encouragement and making sure that you are heading in the right directions.

The goody bag was very good but the only downside dare I say it was the showers! and decided to head back home!

However I would do this event and was great as I plan to do the St Valentines 30k (18 miles) in a few weeks and then the Edingburgh Marathon in May so it's all helping with the training regime!

So if you want a challenge anyone do the Ropsley Half Marathon but please make sure you have a couple of half marathons on your belt!!!!!!!!!

In short: WELL WORTH ATTENDING THIS HALF MARATHON EVENT
In full: This was my second Half Marathon and was also my personal best of: 1:55:35

The atmosphere was great and will certainly be doing this run again! I will possibly attempt to do the Full Marathon depending on my training habits!!!
