We certainly weren't expecting this weather today, what started as a really cool start, it just got hotter and more humid all day, what you all achieved today was quite remarkable, well done to each and every one of you.
It was great meeting so many of you for the first time and also seeing so many regular faces, some we haven't seen for a while, its is so nice to catch up with all of you.
We had such an lovely day with you all, it brings us so much joy to witness so many of you completing your first 5ks, 10ks, first Half Marathons & First marathons and a couple of first Ultras too, so many of you achieving new PB's and a few course records taken today too.
One of the highlights of our events is the social side where we get to chat with you at the end and hear some of the incredible journeys that you are all on.
We have 9 more days of fun to go...
Today's Event Route:Â The Windmill Way Route an undulating all road (considered) trail run with absolutely amazing views across the Suffolk Countryside taking in villages of Higham, Gazeley, Dalham, Denham and Barrow
Â
Marshals and Support: Â We are so lucky to have the best marshals in the world. Once again we would like to extend our gratitude to all the brilliant marshals who ensured a smooth and fun experience for everyone. Their commitment to making the events enjoyable for all participants is remarkable. Considering the weather they were truly amazing and we had so many great comments about how they really made the day special.

We also had a few questions today about our 100 mile event which is at the farm next year, more details are on our website and its suitably named Farmmageddon!
