In short: A well organised race, with very good marshalling across some busy roads. Good value. Great too for the kids - both of mine ran in the junior and fun run events.

In short: FANTASTIC ! Puts Orpington firmly on the map - A lot of thought has gone into the route. World class marshalls, Best organisation i've seen. Incredibly slick..
In full: The Race team should be knighted for their services to running.

They could no doubt turn around even the dreadful British 10k !
