Lorraine Apr 2013 2:45pm, 26 Apr 2013 752 posts	0 Lorraine It will be difficult to say what this years course is like because last year we were running around a building site From memory the odd 'hill' and quiet twisty with a fab finish. The main thing I remember is that the track felt like you were floating. Can't wait to go back

Roobarb Apr 2013 4:10pm, 26 Apr 2013 5,063 posts	0 Roobarb I think it will be like a building site this year too as they are in the process of dismantling buildings etc. The track is lovely. I hope I get a place so that I can do the course justice this time Wonder if its going to be a yearly event now?

I hadn't really thought about peebeeing, I was just thinking about taking it easy but now the thought of a PB in a race that ends on that lovely bouncy track is a little bit appealing 5 miles is my favourite distance to run - we have a great Friday evening series of 5 mile races in the here is Suffolk and they are my favourite events
Roobarb Apr 2013 6:21pm, 26 Apr 2013 5,064 posts	0 Roobarb This one was my first ever 5 miler last year. I've done one more since then and pb'd. I'm doing another one next month and hopefully will pb then. If I don't pb at this one I'll be eating my running shoes! lol
