I had my concerns about this run this week (especially as bad weather had been predicted) but I have just had a very enjoyable day. My final time was 04:05:18 which I am very pleased with considering the weather (wind!) and the hills involved. It was almost entirely off road but I really enjoyed it. There were home made cakes for runners at the checkpoints (i had choc brownie) plus soup and various other cakes at the finish. I was lucky enough to find another solo lady called Helen and we ran the entire route together. In fact as usual I spent most of the route talking so time just flew by (no change there...)
I would highly recommend this race to anyone- either as marathon training or just a run with a difference. It was very well organise for such a small event and they have walkers taking part too.
I am full of spirit and I am not that tired (yet.....)
Well done Rach ,you sound as though you enjoyed your run, that will have put you in good stead for London. Five weeks and counting, again well done. Johnx
