In short: First time , lovely route, well organised and all over by lunch time!
In full: Longleat lends itself really well to an event of this kind - everything is laid on for visitors. The route is picturesque and undulating - the "hills" are not nearly as bad as I was expecting. Don't be put off!

In short: Pleasant
In full: I'm afraid that I think this event was over priced. I was expecting a superb race for the money spent as it happens the event needs: more toilets, km markers not miles, more helpers taking timing chips off and a bag for the goodies. Brilliant goodies but handing them out to runners after we have just run 10km without a plastic bag in which to carry them is a bit strange! Also, with other timing chip races I have done the results have been texted to me immediately- could this not have been done today? I got a PB so can't complain about the actual run, but the event could have been better.

In short: Great race
In full: Well organised race day again, plenty of marshalls and spectators, and loads of goodies after. Why did we have mile markers instead of km, it's a 10k race, only a little moan, or both perhaps.
Well done and thanks.

In short: The hills lived up to the reputation
In full: A tough 10k, but very enjoyable, perhaps more toilets required and also would have liked a bag for all the goddies given out at the end,
