Bob! Absolutely loved it!!!

My 3rd time of doing this, 2006 was 55 minutes dead, 2007 was 53 minutes 36 seconds. This year I came through in 48.52, just 14 seconds outside my PB  set 5 weeks ago!

The killer climb at 7k to 7.5k was a bit slippy on the chalk, the next 1/2k was like the cross country season had started early, running through mud & puddles.

Great Fun, well organised, a proper memento, rather than a tacky tin medal.

Cormorant Did this race three or four years ago on a broiling day. This time the weather was horrible and the offroad descent would have got muddier and muddier for those behind me. This course goes up and up for 5K but saves the worst hill for 7K. I walked that one last time so was pleased to run it this. Not exactly a PB course then, and I was satisfied with the outcome. This is a good, well-organized  event - nice memento too. Cranleigh Tortoise & Hare Runners 44:56 48:03 52:17 57.31

forkhandles a bit slower than last year, but I was helping a mate round. Not bad really - his first 10k without any training! Unaffiliated 42:02 46:48 56:51 48.57

Lizzie W Pos: 604/637.  Rather good PB :-)  Glad it wasn't just me who thought it was mostly uphill ;-)  Enjoyed the run, despite the rain, would like to do it on a clear day.  Finally dried out... Unaffiliated 57:58 1:05:14 1:10:00 1:09:46 43.21

whizzerandchips First time I'd run this, or any off road or hilly race. Quite pleased with my time, less than 4 minutes over my PB, because this was wet wet wet and hilly. Wet wasn't it. The second climb had me walking for 20 or so seconds. It was wet eh. A very well organised and marshalled event though, and I'm glad it wasn't hot and sunny. Did I mention it was wet?
