In short: Cracking new addition to the calendar - just don't expect a PB!
In full: Really enjoyed today's event which lived up to it's name.

Three sharp and hard climbs at the end of the race make it a punishing, but rewarding 10k and one I'll return to year after year.

Organisation was fantastic, with smoothly run facilities at both start and finish. Marshalling was effective, and there was no chance of anyone going off course.

Really surprised to see 'Pony Tail''s comments as for me they don't seem to reflect the event I took part in. I can only assume that this is someone used to pancake flat parkruns and that 'The Sting' stung them too hard!!!

Well done Caistor Running Club - now that's two strong, albeit very different, 10ks that have made their debut in West Lindsey in 2013 and should have a bright future :)

In short: On the path..off the path... messy flooded track after heavy rain, kept the mind active!

In short: superb event Caistor get it sorted for 2013 !
In full: Lovely event in the historic market town. Superb organisation , well marshaled course and great local support on the way. Hills were challenging but really made it a super course. Potential for this race to grow, but keep it manageable. Well done to everyone involved and it is a must do for 2013 cheers
