The race has a reputation for being very well organised, and this was very evident with lots signs to the race start as well as an army of helpers and marshalls at the course itself.
The course route is essentially is down lots of quiet country lanes, very scenic, fairly flat, with a few hilly bits towards the end.

Sandbach Striders were represented by the two 'T's', Tony (Taylor) and Tom (?). My race plan was to go out steady for the few kilometres and try and kick towards the end, but it never quite happens that way, and by 7k I was running out of steam. Somehow I managed to my legs turning and finished in a respectable 40mins 53 secs (33rd out of 320), Tom I think finished in 48mins.
Overall the race was very enjoyable, and both Tom and I agreed we would definetly
do it again.
