This was my 2nd year running the event, I wasn't able to run it earlier in the year due to running another event but this race was affected by the Beast of the East. The offered a fair deferal tothe new date for 2018 or 2019. It's local, good value (£23/£25 race, medal, t shirt and banana) a few undualtions to test you throughout the course. Loads of marshal supervision and friendly faces about. It's not a bucket list race, but if you;re looking for a tune up race for a spring marathon and you live close by, you can't really go wrong here..
