2019 Mota-vation Race 3 at Combe

As races are not taking place at the moment, I'm creating some web pages entitled "where I was taking photos this time last year". Today, I'm looking at Mota-vation Race 3 which takes place from Combe, a village that is about 11M NW of Oxford.

The organiser's website says "the race is 3 miles 1585 yards long". Last year's race took place on Thu Jun 27th 2019 and this year's race was to have taken place today (Thu Jun 25th 2020). Unfortunately, because of the corona virus it has had to be cancelled.

By the way, you can click on any of the photos on this web page to see the photo in hi-res.

Postscript

If you did Mota-vation Race 3 at Combe in 2019 and want a reminder, then here's a link to all the photos that I took. The results of the race are on the results web page.

If you want to see the reviews I've done on other races, then here's a link to a web page that includes an index of the reviews of races.

Which race will I review next? Well, there's a clash for Sunday as both the Ridgeway Relay and the CPM Thame 10K were going to take place that day. I'm planning to post a review of the 2019 Ridgeway Relay on Sun Jun 28th, a review of 2019 Didcot 5 on Sun Jul 5th and a review of the CPM Thame 10K on Sun Jul 12th.
