Did the race in 2021
Running along Whitstable seafront is always a pleasure as it's my hometown. The race was extremely well organised and the volunteers were extremely helpful and encouraging as you ran past them. This was my first ever half marathon race and I was extremely pleased with how it went. However, the only thing that might have been better was if there was a category for over 50's as there were competitors in my Masters category who were 15 years younger than me.. Still, it was a fabulous experience if a windy and cold one in November... I wore my QPR running vest and got a few "come on you Hoops" and "U R's" which was a Brucie bonus..

Yes our team had a good event, the course was very familiar. Note for future attendees if it’s wet weather I recommend you bring your old trainers as there is some rough muddy ground.

Very nice run along the North Kent coast, a couple of little hills but mainly flat. It was a bit blowy and chilly but good fun anyway.

This event was small and friendly. I achieved a PB despite the coastal breeze. Awesome marshalls, who must have been very cold, but remained cheerful
