In short: Will be back next year! In full: Still on Cloud 9 after a week gone since completing this run. I had attempted a half quite a few years ago, but didn't go well due to injury. The Basingstoke Half has now got me wanting to enter more runs, and also come back next year. Was very well organised, starting off with an entertaining warm up, and samples of Clif bars - so tempted to keep eating, but didn't want a stitch! From the start of the run, there were so many encouraging supporters. Lots of kids involved too, handing out jelly babies, and one corner where there was a line of high-fives, it was so much fun! Very grateful for the supporter who was counting the number of woman that had past, which just pushed me more to keep going. At the end, given a banana, Clif Bar, and a medal, all by the cutest kids! And a pat on the back from a runner behind me who was using me as their pace maker for the last mile :) I can't wait to come back next year, I'll be bringing a few friends to join in!
