In full: Great race, awesome crowd, the finish could be better! was trying to sprint to the finish but the public where blocking the last 200m, as no crowd control
Finish should be in the town centre

In short: great organisation and support
In full: Really impressed with this event. I was miserable before the start because of the conditions but the organisers, marshals and public on the course turned what could have been a nightmare into a fanastic day. The crowd support was well abover average for a raise of this kind - really helped the runners on the day. Only annoying thing (caused by the weather) was the really muddy finish but I don't think there was a lot that could have been done.

In full: Very well organised, shame about the mudbath in HQ and the finish line! Thank you to all the support from the many many marshalls.

In short: Great support & well organised
In full: This is the 6th time I've run Fleet now. I love it (but I am baised). Its my home town race. The organisers are great, the marshalls fantastic, and the crowds superb. Was a very cold & wet race this year but the marshall's throughout the course were just awesome. Only downside was a few idiotic drivers who felt the need to disobey the Road Closure signs!!!!!
