Eight Uckfield Runners competed in this event. It was Cold day but dry day. There was little wind but it was noticeable from about 4 to 7 miles. The event was well organised and in spite of a field of 7,500 runners was not too congested and water was readily available at the drik stations. The course is mostly fairly flat except for the climp from 3 to 5 miles up towards Rottingdean. However the sourse was actually 13.48 miles rather then 13.11 miles so adjusting to correct half marathon distance would tale about 2.5 to 3 mins off official chip times below. There are some notable results with Tanya finishing 5th in her class, Brian smashing his prevous PB of 2 hour 7min, Mark running well inside his target of 1hr 45 and Peter running an excellant sub 2hour (which taking account of the extended length was equivelent to 1hour 54).
