← Flying Monk Malmesbury 10k

I absolutely love any race that is organised by DBMax and this one did not disappoint. There was excellent signage to get you to the car park and avoid the road closures for the Malmesbury carnival, as well as good signs to get you to registration and around the course.

Loved the atmosphere around the start/finish area and meeting some other #visorclub members! The course was a lot tougher than I was expecting with plenty of steep inclines to keep you alert but the idea of running along the oldest Roman Road in Britain was interesting enough so that you didn't mind the hills too much. I also liked having a bottle opener encorporated into the medal at the end.

The only couple of gripes I had were that it was way more than a 5 minute walk to the registration area and made us glad we hadn't arrived any later than we did and that I'm not a fan of beer. I'm aware that it was free and I do feel a bit guilty having a moan, but many people around me said that it didn't taste very nice either. A cider option would have gone down much better!

Thanks again DBMax for a great event.
