Tough course, lots of mud, windy sea wall, and just when you think youve managed the worst part, theres more mud and a final uphill finish

It was my first time, having put it off for 6 years, I’d run out of excuses! It was what I expected and more! Tough course, muddy fields, hideous last uphill mile. Would I do it again? Probably, yes! 😫😂

I was unable to run due to injury. I messaged the club secretary of this to ask for a deferment but did not get a reply. I now realise I should have messaged Let's Do This so I am a bit annoyed at losing the money. I have a slipped disc and have been off work for 2 1/2 months on statutory sick pay. I would love to be able to do it next year as I loved it in 2022.

Muddy, hilly & a strong, cold head wind. What’s not to love? See you next year 😁
