I should run faster! The D33ers did have crap weather for all of their race which was a shame. I thought last year's was bad enough, we've been very unlucky with the weather lately.

I was thinking it was clear at Duthie park until the D33 start and you were only a few hours after that coming in. But I'd forgotten the bad stuff would have come from the west where you guys were also coming back from. What was the route like mrs s? I hope to read some blogs. I had realised it has some quite challenging, hilly sections? Well done again all. G
