The weather was beautiful for a half marathon run across Dalby Forest, but the four GoodGymers weren't really expecting what was about to come. The route has proven to be very demanding with a series of muddy puddles (I don't remember when was the last time I had my shoes fully immersed in mud so many times) and two long and steep climbs. To make it more fun someone made a prank of removing/relocating some of the route arrow markers. As a result people ended up running between 18.6K and 20K. It was a good way finding experience though. I wonder if there are still people wandering in the woods (kidding). It will be interesting to see the official race results when/if they are released.
