Comments: First year running of the Farnborough Half Marathon so thought id give it a bash. -4 Degrees at 9am on raceday and i later discovered on the news that Farnborough was the coldest town in the country last weekend - twas freezin! The race started at Farnborough Air Ship Hangar and did a sort of two lap route of an Industrial area and part of the runway which was rather boring! After that though it was largely a scenic countryside route through South Wood Park, along Kennel Lane before a short stretch along the towpath by Basingstoke Canal and back along quiet roads to the finish. Not a particularly well supported race with it being quite rural but quite enjoyable with a decent finishers medal! Only £22 to enter for club runners which seems a bargain at todays prices!
