Honeysuckle Farm . . on Marshcroft Lane . . and Phil from Bearbrook Joggers jogs down the lane to be ready when the runners come through . .

and here they come . .

the final drinks station, just before Pitstone Hill . .

Paul abandoned his marshal position at Marshcroft Lane to get a quick run to the drinks station and back, and had returned well ahead of the runners . .

although James wasn't all that far behind him at this point . .

and as the sun came out to shine . . there was so much more to see!!
