← Woodcote 10K

first off, this race is NOT flat, most emphatically not.  To a close approximation it's best to say it's downhill for the first 5k, then uphill for the back 5.  There are some flattish sections, but really, it's a hilly route. the first half is tough on the quads, making the back half even trickier. this runner confesses to walking some of the uphill sections.  it's a nice time of year for the race, early January, so good to blow post xmas cobwebs away, it's usually pretty chilly.  cheap and cheerful event, run by local Rotary group for charity.
