In short: A good, fast course !
In full: Not as flat as you might think, you would not really want to be doing this event in a strong wind as there is zero shelter ! Very well organised on the day

In short: Good experience for attempting PB; bit tedious doing laps; would prefer to do the track again in a racing car!

In short: 3.25 laps of the race track was a bit dull, but we all new what to expect . Plenty of over taking room so no problem for slow runners or bigginers.. Yes the Duathlon is the main event, to be expected . Nice tee shirt and goodie bag

In short: First time at this one; good day out in ideal weather, ruined for me personally by an overambitious start. Three and a bit laps, plus plenty of car parking, makes it very spectator-friendly.

In short: Great outing for my first 10K, the weather made it great, but everything else seemed to go like clockwork. Very friendly and helpful for beginners, nice flat track, but enough scenic interest to stop it being boring
