The race has had a bit of a chequered history since then. It
was cancelled in 2014 and was nearly lost to the calendar completely. It was reduced
to 10 miles last year due to moorland fires.
So it’s good to be back and to find that nothing has
actually changed. They do say it’s a different route these days but I couldn’t
tell. Needless to say it still isn’t flat. Although I suppose the selling point
is the great view from the Roaches, if you can get enough oxygen in to your
lungs by then to enjoy it.
The only thing that has obviously changed is me. Did I
really run this in 1:43 in 2011? I do 1:53 today.
