In short: Fantastic course and atmosphere
In full: This is a lovely course along the Wirral coast, with all of the route off road. The weather is key to chances of a PB here: this year there was a strong headwind after the turn for home which came as a shock to most.

The race is in a good cause and those with GPS will consider this probably the world's greatest 9.7K!

In short: Great race
In full: This race has it all well organised a flat course with a decent chance of a PB. A run along the Mersey waterfront together with part of the Wirral Way. A good mix of abilites which welcomes first timers and those looking to push the pace. The marshals and staff are very supportive and a goody bag tshirt and certificate all for £8 outstanding value. The best organised and most welcoming run on Merseyside

In short: Wow! Great views across the beach and brilliant organisation.
In full: This is the 3rd year I've done this race and it was so nice to finally have a wind free race. The weather was perfect, sunny and warm with blue skies. The course itself is nice and flat, out and back around the lighthouse. Definitely beginner friendly but provides good PB potential. The orgnisation was of the highest quality, as always, and the race ran like clockwork. If you're local to the wirral do this race!

In short: Well organised, fun and great value
In full: Once again the atmosphere at this 10K was great. It was really well organised by Carla and her team. They booked glorious weather for the second year running. And it still only costs seven quid.
