“Deferred from last year after getting into the ballot first time, so there was even more anticipation to do “The biggest half marathon in the world!” It definitely lived up to its name as the friendliest one! Tons of support and the most deafening crowd cheering at the finish line! 😆
On the downside I’d had zero training for 4 weeks due to Achilles tendinitis 🤕 and the pain kicked in at mile 3. I never intended to race this one due to its size, so it was a good excuse to slow down and enjoy it by having to deal with the pain! 😬
It’s definitely a half marathon I would recommend, awesome medal and would like to do it again, fully fit next time! Oggy Oggy Oggy!!” – Elliot Gardiner

“The course was brutal and I wasn’t feeling prepared for such a hilly race, but it was a lovely event. I stayed, with the family, for the Deer Roast later on – a deer had been roasting over an open fire all day and was carved up and given out to everyone in bread rolls. For centuries, the main land owner of Cranham gave the workers a day off and roasted a deer for them and it was nice (and delicious) to join in that continuing tradition.” – Mark Garrett

“Great event, relaxed atmosphere to juxtapose the horrendously tough course. Knowing the final climb my strategy was to try and ‘recover’ somewhere. 38:02 2nd MV50. Fab results for all of the RSE team today.” – Jon Last.
“I found it a tough race, there were some very steep hills and I did quite a lot of walking. But it was lovely to be a part of the Cranham Feast and to have lots of other things going on all around.” – Sue Navin
