Salomon Turbo X, Bordon

Thanks Chillies.
Yes it is. Hopefully I can do those. Just one of those bugs with unfortunate timing. Would have been stupid to run today, but hopefully next 2 OK.

Never done Hellrunner, but didn't find Grim too extreme last year. It's all a laugh anyway!

How did you get on?

What a great race! My first of road race and loved it! Bring on the next one!

Really enjoyed today after I finished... hated the damn thing during some parts of the run though! : )

Didn't know what to expect time-wise as it's my first off-road race (apart from Tough Guy which doesn't exactly help understand pace) and managed to do it 1:32 which I'm very happy with.

GRIM is looming. Who has done both? And which is 'hardest'?

Well done to everybody running today!

Grim is shorter, and nowhere near as tough as today's race in my opinion. I'm doing my third Grim this year, and this was my third Turbo X (two here one in Bracknell Forest, which was nowhere near as muddy as Bordon, but viciously hilly)

Grim is huge fun though, with a massive crowd.

Did OK today, 1:35:06, three minutes better than last year. Any tales of triumph or woe?

Thanks for the info cfb! Looking forward to GRIM now.

Bracknell Forest is my local running spot. Some of those hills are horrible that's for sure.
Great work on bettering your time today too!

Glad to hear that I started with what sounds like one of the hardest! Did 1:21 to so pretty chuffed!

My run this morning was certainly better than my snooker tonight!

Chilli's - what were you wearing? - you finished 12 seconds behind me - i think i might have you the background of the finishing picture that my girlfriend took - were you in either a red or blue top?
