This is the first time I have done this race and loved every minute of it.
Registration, baggage and organisation were all pretty flawless.
Course was flat with only mild inclines. PB possibilities for sure.
Marshals and crowd support were very good. Water stations were regular and quite well stocked.
route went through centre of Derby and then drifted off road along gravel paths. Some of the views were very scenic.
The race ended outside Derby County football ground.
A stadium finish would have been nice but never mind.
Finishers were rewarded with a superb finishers shirt and top quality medal.
I had a free post race massage. It was quite possible the best massage I have ever had.
I would like to thank everybody for a brilliant day. I will certainly be back again in 2018.
