4 Villages half marathon Helsby- mission accomplished

My goals today
to finish- acheived
to finish reasobably- acheived
to finish in under 2 hours acheived
my timing from my Garmin 1hr 59min 08

A very popular race, with lots (? over 2,000) of friendly runners from clubs all over the country.

Big thanks
to the good folks of Helsby Runners and all your helpers from SCouts on baggage store and Rotary on the bacon bap for 2£ -excellent, and Rotary man on bus co-ordination duty.

A run to be recommended. IF you do some training on hills as most of us in North Wales will do then this is an ok half marathon with a few inclines with 1 steepish bit around mile 8 & 9. This is countered by a lovely downhill to mile 12.

And of course a great surprise to see freinds at the finish - a big Hi to Kath C. thanks for the hello and the support on route --- even if i didnt acknowledge you in Mouldsworth.
