In short: An enjoyable race, well run
In full: A nice, flat, fast course with enough to look at to take your mind off the pain and some smiling marshalls along the way. The organisation was very good and the posting of results very soon after people crossed the line was excellent.
My thanks to everyone who gave up their time to make the event a success. See you next year.

In short: Enjoyable sunday 10k, nice to run a smaller race. Well done
In full: Very good 10k, not really a fan of multi lap races but this was nice. friendly runners and marshalls. New PB as well, so can't be bad. Well organised not problems at all.

In short: Good PB chances, shame medal was identical to last years!
In full: Nice course and love running on the track at start & finish. Medal was identical to last years, would be nice for a different design. Good organisation at getting the results up so quickly, but why does it take 30 minutes after the last runner finishing to have the prize giving?

In full: Enjoyble run flat and you always knew where to run, very quick! i smashed my pb :) lots of quick runners too. First km is a bit narrow, very tricky to past fellow runners after that its smooth, weather was great hardly any wind. Would run it again for sure!

In short: A nice off road route
In full:
I found the route interesting and found the start in the stadium was a nice touch.
Out on the main course it was crowded in place and some of the lady marshals really enjoyed shouting “mind the bollards” perhaps a little too much!

In short: Fast & flat
In full: Bit of a contrived course, but not a hill in sight so PB potential. Start and finish on track always good, particularly with motivation from the commentator. Km markers did not seem accurate.........oherwise my pace was varying by 40 secs a Km! Well organised race.
