In short: Enjoyed it but wheres my time!
In full: Overall iI enjoyed it, I am used to running larger 10K's in central London which are very showbiz...large crowds, bands playing along the routes etc...but I enjoyed just being able to run! There were lots of club runners which made me run faster. I have two moans, no t-shirt as promised and my chip time is still not up on the website as promised (I think I have achieved a PB so can't wait to find out my time!)

In short: Parking was well organised after potential water logged car parks warning. medals a nice touch but no T shirt as advertised on application form. 2 water stations enroute the 1st early enough to be well appreciated. L

In short: Another good race. Organisation needs sharpening up. T shirts were promised. Told all my fellow runners that you get a shirt with a Lancaster on it.
In full: You can't advertise a T shirt for every 10k finisher & then not have any for the majority of runners. Putting them in the public area doesn't help. Where are the results, promised for the evening of the race? Would also like to see the fun run results

In short: Nice race, results not published on website
In full: I enjoyed the race but my sons wanted to know what their times were. The links on the site all link back to last years results, very disappointing indeed.

In short: Good local race
In full: Thank you to all organisers and marshalls. Little bit worried to hear there were potential parking problems, so we turned up VERY early! All seemed to go smoothly, and even the finish line seemed less chaotic this time.

In short: No issues with the race, enjoyed it, just very disappointing to be told they had run out of T shirts, so there was not any left, although it states a medal & Tshirt to all finishers

In full: Apologies. Obviously still suffering from Oxygen deprivation. I saw a few familiar names and assumed I was looking at the 2012 results when they were in fact the 2011. My bad. :(

In short: Great race!
In full: Great turnout, good atmosphere and well organised. Plenty of water handed out on the course and at the end. Nice medal at the finish line as well. My chip timing worked fine for me. Will be returning again in 2013!

In short: Good run in the sun
In full: Posting this before the times go up tonight so not sure exactly what my time was yet so hoping that'll be up later that evening like they said :D Got a medal, didn't realise they were handing out certificates and they had just run out of shirts when i'd got my water. Apparently the shirts were leftover from last year and they were just getting rid of them. Parking was ok, well marked out. 2 water stations were good! Lots of people, friendly atmosphere, no major problems with traffic. Enjoyed it and would do it again!!
