First time for me and first time 10 miles xc!. loved it !

 I  was a bit bemused by fellow runners moaning that it was muddy (well it has been raining) and that it was tough! Oh well I suppose you cant please them all!

Well done to the marshalls especally the one who told me my position in the race. I hope the marshalls were not runners, because it would be unfair not to be able to run such a top event.

This was my first running of this race and I loved it, it will go in the log as one of my favourites - lots of hills and plenty of mud - perfect!

Great organisation and many thanks to the marshalls who all had a word of encouragement as I ran passed.

 Looking forward to next year's race already!

Well all that mud just reminded me of Glastonbury last year.

Was a great larf though.

First time I'd had a beer just as I've finished a race. Got to say the Larkins Best Bitter was loverly

all the marshalls are members of the Tunbridge Wells  Harriers so are giving up their chance to run on the day. But we arrange a "Marshalls' Run" a week afterwards especially for them so they get to enjoy Cheeky's Bog once again. Next we have a surprise - look out for "Cheekey's Back Passage"!

thanks for the comments, it makes a difference to us

Everyone at Plumstead Runners enjoyed this one - a real treat!

Excellent run, deeply muddy in places and wonderful beer at the finish - thought I'd died and gone to heaven!

I'll be posting the pics I took shortly - just at mile 8 at the end of the long climb, just before the "Lovely Downhill Bit" My team-mates pics and some scenic ones are here - www.j3ff.co.uk/FRC_ERIDGE - please take time to look through them and apologies if you aren't in them as there were quite a few of you this year.
