minardi Jan 2017 9:22am, 23 Jan 2017 3,853 posts	0 minardi Did I? There's a surprise (shame I didn't see you Old Man - I seemed to have missed most people I know who were there!) I wouldn't say that the weather was ideal - took me the hour ride home to defrost even with the heated seat on full blast, and then an hour in the bath to get my fingers into a state where the ends could be felt! The lumps in the race weren't as bad as I was expecting just that last one in mile 14 but I had promised myself I could walk up it that last time around I felt it was a boring course so I won't be rushing back (and this is me, used to the cabbage fields of Boston so it must have been bad )
Fenland Flier Jan 2017 10:05am, 23 Jan 2017 229 posts	0 Fenland Flier I didn't see you OM although there were obviously many WJ's there I did look out for any familiar faces. I did see Jinksy and hurricanehamlyn. I thought the 2nd and 5th hill was bad until that last one at mile 14 then I remembered how bad that had been last year, boy did that take it out my legs. Minardi it's no different to the cabbage fields of Boston it's just lumpy too and with more hedges.
Old Man Jan 2017 7:37pm, 23 Jan 2017 3,047 posts	0 Old Man Sorry I missed you FF. I always hill 2 & 5 are the worst, they are the longest and are a drag and come soon after hill 1 & 4. Hill 6 is just mind over matter, it hurts because it's the last and your body knows that Sorry you didn't like the course much Minardi, I meant conditions were ideal given it is January and we had blue sky, no wind and the ice had all but gone after the first lap. In the past we've run it in driving wind and rain and one year conditions were so bad it had to be cancelled
