Surrey Spitfire 20 - 14th March 2010
Part of my preparations for my first London marathon was to do this race at Dunsfold aerodrome which is where Top Gear does its filming for the Stig.
After finding the place as there was not any signs for it !! I then realized at the start I had forgot my "chip timer" so I then had to find where the car was parked, put the chip on and then get back to the start! That was my warm up !!
This race started on the runway with the "Tempest 10" (one lap), the race was 2 laps of the surrounding country side, with just one short stretch on a busy country road.
We ran about 3 miles each lap on the aerodrome which I did not like due to the wind and the boring view!!
I think this was the first time this race was on and if its on next year put your entry in for a good organized event.
My time was 2:13:15 (7th cat) 17th out of 635
1st male Alex Gibbins 1:56:28 Blackhealth
1st female Sarah Jarvis 2:06:28 Bingley
