8th March - Burghley 7 Road Race Burghley House, Peterborough, Stamford, Multi-Terrain.

The first Burghley 7 Road Race organised by Rutland Marathon Events. A beautiful 7 mile run around Stamford and in the grounds of Burghley Estate with spectacular views of Burghley House. The undulating route was mainly tarmac and pathways. The event was very well organised with 3 water stations, super friendly marshals and a fab t-shirt and medal.

Louise McCauley and myself attended this event and thoroughly enjoyed it - I was the one without the hangover.

29th Feb - Belvoir Challenge Vale of Belvoir, Leicestershire, Multi-Terrain.

My 5th year at this event and I have to say the last 2 years have been perfect weather conditions. This year, however, without a doubt was the worst I have ever known it - to the point of frustration!

The route is mainly trail around the beautiful Vale of Belvoir which has some truly spectacular scenery.

Now I don't mind a bit of mud or even quite a bit of mud but when there is nothing but mud coupled with freezing cold water logged fields then I draw the line. I had signed up for the full 26 miles but like so many others decided to drop back to 16 miles for fear of being out too long in those conditions.

The event itself is well organised, has excellent marshals and well stocked checkpoints with hot soup and a choice of hot puddings in the village hall at the finish.

23rd Feb - St Valentines 30k (postponed from 16/2/20) Stamford, Lincolnshire, Road.

The 27th year of this event organised by Stamford Striders and my 5th year at taking part. This is a very popular race for those training for Spring Marathons. The race is very well organised and this year the race team certainly had their work cut out for them due to Storm Ciara on the original date and then Storm Denis on the rescheduled date a week later.

The course passes through several pretty villages and is particularly hilly. This year was a little more challenging due to Storm Denis but overall a very enjoyable run with some very enthusiastic marshalling! If you have not done this run before there is a little surprise at the end which basically involves a lap of the field which is somewhat challenging after all those hills!

Have to say this is one of my favourite runs and this year we were rewarded with a great long sleeve T-shirt and a super medal.

Thanks to Jayne MacArthur for her Report.
