Well it was back to North Wales for another crack at the Snowdonia Marathon. Last year the weather was terrible - 90mph winds, driving rain and cold. This year it was marginally better -70mph winds, driving rain and milder temperatures.
I was aiming to get round in under 4 hours but it actually took me 4hrs 26' 24". I wasn't too disappointed with my time though because the conditions were pretty bad and i did knock about 40 minutes off my 2008 time. So the target for next year is sub 4 hours.
Here's a video of the race as seen from the runner's perspective. Sorry if it's a bit unsteady but I think it captures the essence of the event.
