In short: Flat, tracked training run... good for beginners
In full: Good run, moderately serious runners, not many fun runners. No encouragement from marshalls (one) which would have been welcome. Excellent PB potential, great for beginners, very exposed to the wind on one side of the lake so slower than usual. Matched my PB and jogged all the way without walking so fulfilled my objective.

In short: All a bit dull but it was very cold
In full: Not much about the event and lacked the charm of many many charity runs. That said course is very fast and I set my PB so will be back

In short: Fast time possible
In full: Good flat course with great PB possibility... beat my 2007 PB by over 1.5 mins.
Disappointing lack of support but the weather probably had something to do with that.
Would run next year.

In short: Great course, incredibly flat & smooth.
In full: Unlike other charity event runs I have done, this was all about running for a PB, on a course made for doing just that. As a result there wasn't the welcoming encouragement for the last 250 metres, but on a windy Novemeber day that's not surprising! The headwind between 5&7k was arduous, but overall it was great & I will definitely go there again.
