Ilford AC 10 Miler
28 December 2015 - By Tony Wallen
Scott Darney, Tony and myself went down to Hainault Forest to take part in an off road 10 miler hosted by Ilford AC.
The tough 3 lap route took in parts of their traditional cross country course and included a steep climb at the start, lovely views of the forest once you reached the top, and mud, mud and more mud! Think Gosfield on a bad day and you’re half way there.
Scott was first of our trio in 1:18, Tony was next in 1:23 and I crawled home in 1:38.
A low key race and very well marshalled, this maybe an event for you to consider next year.
