- Jennifer Glass: 3:47:43
“Really cold and rainy while we were hanging around at the start but a good temperature for the rest of the race. Hilly at the start and then some big hills in the second half including a big hill at the end. Pretty tough course all in all but I was pleased with my time. Chester is a beautiful city and I enjoyed running in the countryside the route the marathon took us through.”
Cirencester Slog
The Cirencester Slog is a multi-terrain 10 mile race in Cirencester Park, taking in some of the less familiar trails the park has to offer.

“Really enjoyed the run, through parts of the park I’d not seen before” – Dan
“Really enjoyed this run. A bit of mud but not too much; a few hilly bits but not too many; easy to get to; good atmosphere AND, we were clearly told at the beginning that the money they were making was going to charity. What’s not to like?!” – Paul
“Great trail run through Cirencester Park. Beautiful conditions. A few puddles and muddy patches to keep things interesting. Amazing finish from the horse statue down the hill to the finish above the Cecily Hill gates.” – James

- Liz Hulcup: 56:26
“As second claim runner with Bourton Roadrunners I attended the BRR club trip to Leeds. Starting with my 100th Parkrun on route at Long Eaton we attended the running festival the day after in Roundhay Park. I opted for the Half Marathon. The route was undulating with a steep climb on each of the 5 laps around the lake. The route was mainly trail with some parts technically difficult however the views were lovely. A great route for supporters and a nice cafe at the end.” – Linda
