Cool temperatures with rain in the breeze heralded the start of the Bewl Water 15.
It was more or less a shuffle for the first 1/2 mile, then a bottle neck at the first stile (and a complete stop for a few minutes!) After that we got going to very muddy and slippery conditions (with the occasional refreshing light shower). Altogether a very enjoyable race with a great atmosphere. considering the slip-sliding start of the paths and the long wait to go over the stile, I was pleased with my time; and with the many yummy cakes at the finish!
