Miles Cudmore reports:
At 19:15 on 12th December I watched the altimeter
inside the Ilyushin-76 reach 850m and we touched down on the blue ice runway.

The course followed
a groomed trail through the sastrugi and was marked by small flags.

 The air is very dry and I drank about three litres during the race – a lot for a marathon.......

I ran the Maidenhead 10 on Good Friday for the 4th year in a row, and the weather didn’t disappoint (again!) It always seems to either rain or be very cold. It rained this time.

I got up nice and early and headed off to the Nortel Business Park in plenty of time – they said there would be no delays this year – a 9:30 sharp start without fail (we’ll see!)
Got to the turn off the A4 and there were loads of cars queuing to get down to the Park – I’ve always just driven straight in previously. Anyway, I got parked up, had a wander round, found the loos and bumped into a few Windle Valley runners (a good WVR turnout this year).

Went off for a warm up jog and headed off to the start at about 9:20. Then I heard the announcement that I knew would be coming, “The start’s been delayed for 10 minutes to give the loo queues time to go down” – ah well, 10 minutes isn’t too bad.
I positioned myself towards the back of the throng – now that this race has chip timing there’s no need to get as near to the front as possible.
The hooter went off
at 9:40 and we were off – that’s when the rain started. Just a drizzle, but enough to be a nuisance for glasses wearers!!
I was running at an average pace of about 8:30 minute miles (although they were varying greatly – I don’t know if the mile markers were accurate!) and feeling quite comfortable.
