Comments: | A lovely evening for a run. This is a nice, small race with fewer than
200 runners and you are able to enter on the day. The race centre is on the local playing field and after the race they provided a BBQ and a guy running a disco! Headington were in great form and took full advantage of these facilities! Mind you it was deserved, as the race is not a flat one. The course takes you up and down all the way. You are taken on a once only circuit out to a neighbouring village called Horley through some lovely countryside. It really is very scenic. The houses are built from the local iron stone so are honey coloured and beautiful in the evening sunshine. The final downhill to the finish line makes you feel like you are faster than Mo, and persuades you to come back the following year, the previous hills practically forgotten. More good results for HRR - Diane Foster was first woman home and Mike Davies was first V60. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
