In short: A good 10k with definite scope for PB
In full: Not sure if all these reviews are for the same race as the 2011 was absolutely flat with 0 hills.
A decent course, although a little narrow in parts early on so PB hunters should make sure they're out in front.
Well worth the entry fee, and nice to have a race on a Saturday morning.
(NB - If I remember correctly the course was not closed, so may bump into the occassional dog walker).

In short: WET!
In full: The one race that might actually be quicker in wellies! Evil-y deep "puddles" (waist deep) with strategically placed camera-men. Great atmosphere, great location and the beautiful smell of pine throughout! Definitely worth a go.

In full: My @innerrunner blogged about this weekends #MoRunning in Greenwich Park :) wp.me/p1JCNB-7. I'll definitely be back for this one!

In short: Awful 10K course
In full: At times it's dangerous. Two parts in particular, 1) you suddenly turn the corner over one of the many bridges to find you need to do an emergency stop or go flying down some steps. THere was no warning at all, not even a marshall in sight. 2) Down a wet and slippery zig zag path.

In short: A real thigh buster
In full: All on park pathways with a couple of pinch points. Plenty of ups and downs to test the stamnina. Not much about the charity, not even mentioned by the loud PA.
