In short: Well organised race, good for a PB
In full: The course is flat but exposed, which can make it hard work in places on a windy day like today. Organisation was great, apart from the location of some of the km markers as someone else already mentioned. However, I use a Garmin for taking splits so it wasn't a problem.

In short: Very well organised, fast course but strong winds this year.
In full: Very well organised race as usual from Alchester on what can be a fast course if the wind behaves - which it didn't today!
Only critiscism today was the km markers - they were a long way out in places, with splits coming out very erratically as a result (eg 4:22 followed by 3:08!. 2&3, then 5,6&7 were the worst.

In short: Fast, flat and excellent organization. What more could you want!
In full: I always look forward to this race, the the folk at Alchester didn't disappoint once again. Faultless organization and an army of enthusiastic marshalls make this one of the most enjoyable events of the year. And this is despite the dreaded headwinds on the airfield!

In short: Excellent well run fast 10k
In full: Great organisation. Easy parking and good venue with plenty of loos and changing rooms and warm showers. Really well marshalled. Last bit of the airfield section hard going into headwind but still managed a PB.
