This race was the Great Barford Half which I ran last year but the change of venue did not lessen the difficulty of the course or the first class organisation.
The organisation was excellent, the course was interesting, the location is scenic, the toilets and changing were naff but they had a sound system playing non stop and a food van serving jacket potatoes, chilli beef and hot bacon sandwiches (now that's what I call an incentive to finish with a flourish).
The race was won by Huw Lobb from Bedford and County in 1:09:45.
