hammerite Wow is that a relief after having so many bets stacked on me! First mile was slow going due to usual start traffic, and a couple of hills, but was bang on schedule for the 36m 30 that I'd planned, but after that I just kept getting quicker. Good course, perfect temperature, no wind!

Strangely the chip results had me down as 34m 59 which would've been great but I knew I wasn't quite that quick, everyone was reporting a 15s difference in their times. But still a PB by 1m 45s which I cannot grumble at at all!! Bedford Harriers AC 33:57 35:14 36:30 35:14 59.79

Mr BDR I found the hills on this one tougher than I remember, I guess my legs are a little tired.

starfleet1985 Lovely course but slightly hilly. Well organised as well as well marshalled and supported by the locals. Ideal weather maybe a little cold before hand. Slow start for about a mile due to heavy volume of runners. Strong smell of manure at the beginning. Good last mile done in about 8 minutes. Overall a good time but would hope to do slightly better next time.

The Teaboy No wind (but there was manure...)!! Felt really easy through 3.5 miles until we turned back to Blisworth. Was harder from there but worked it back well. Ran it pretty even pace. Happy with time. Good effort, and can try to go faster next time. Enjoyed it. Bedford Harriers AC 33:37 34:21 35:00 34:21 61.36
Ultra Sparkly Bridget (USB) Hoping to shave a few seconds of my PB as I believe this to be a less hilly course.  Also the chip timing will help :-)  *UPDATE* Was aiming for 9.10 min miling but managed to break this for all but the 3rd mile which included trying to choke myself on some water!  Delighted with the outcome despite forgetting to bet on myself :-) Buckingham & Stowe RC 45:14 45:14 46:00 45:14 56.09
