Boycie An interesting run on a narrow trail from the Wellington Arms in Southwell. It was as billed very flat, however it was on a rutted path with 4 barriers which had to be either ducked under or swerved around over a kind of cattle grid, which unfortunately slowed you down. Both Leon and my Garmin's clocked it as long - closer to 5.2k than 5k, but still a reasonable time. I probably wouldn't bet on myself again to break a PB on this though!!!

D2 Thoroughly enjoyed this race; beautiful spring evening and friendly crowd.The out and back track is a bit uneven and narrow so had to run on the 'rough stuff' to let everyone come back past. Its exciting to see the winners come back past me sooo fast! I was determined to take a positive attitude, run an even pace and not beat myself up about being at the back of the field and I managed to do that, so pleased. Time almost identical to last 5K but better paced. Garmin time 36.24 - started at back! Spoke to a nice lady in a Fetch vest at the end - she says they are very comfortable, cant wait to get mine Unaffiliated 36:11 36:13 37:00 36:24 50.20
Fat Man Runs A very 'clubby' race - not to say that this is a bad thing because it's not - everyone should do a mix of these type of things and the mass participation events. What better way to spend a 'warm' summer evening eating as many flies as rural Nottinghamshire has to offer. Only concern was that course did measure a little bit long on the GPS (about .2 of a mile), Unaffiliated 23:05 23:05 23:05 55.84
