In short: Did anyone else think it was less than 10k? In full: First of all.....a good race, with a good atmosphere. Never done it before and I belive that there is usually a fete of some sort?....If so then I imagine that this is a really good event.
Second....if you're not quick then don't line up at the front!! :-)
I was aiming for 41 mins, stopped 3 times for 1 minute each and ended up doing 42:30 so something doesn't add up for me. I don't think it's 10k, more like 6 miles.
So, overall a good race with good support but I won't be adding it to my 10k times. It wouldn't stop me doing it again though.

In short: Definitely a quick course though not flat, one noticeable uphill at 4K ish. Something definitely needs doing about the turn in about 300m before the finish. Bad enough for the leaders and got worse later. Toilets were questionable. Date of review: May 1, 2006

In short: Fantasic, enjoyable race! In full: Great race, good support - really nice scenery down mostly country lanes - even through the houses excellent support from the residents - was I the only one getting confused and finishing at the start line? Oh well, all in all excellent - how about those loos though? Date of review: May 1, 2006
