Thetford Cross Country. Perfect weather for racing today and a challenging course. Very little flat, it all seemed to be up or down, with mole hills, on firm ground. Marshals were excellent with encouragement at every turn. There was a good turnout of runners but the field soon became spread out so there were no bottlenecks or hold ups. RntS members enjoyed the event and Amanda our Captain was pleased with our efforts.

Lovely weather greeted us, considering the weather the previous week. Thanks for the awesome racemakers who had spend the previous couple of days pumping water off the course and digging soakaways!

The even was very well organised with plenty of parking and a lovely big sports hall for changing, registration and the obligatory piece of cake and a cuppa afterwards!

Organisation was great and also the lovely idea of letting people chose to start 15 minutes earlier than the main start so that more people finish around the same time.

Recommended.
