In short: Faultless organisation and almost perfect weather
In full: As always a great race, all went very smoothly -number and chip pick up, plenty of loos, the start pens - and the weather was kind too.
Thanks to the Brownies too for the excellent coffee and homemade biscuit to revive me afterwards!

In short: Great race with excellent organisation.
In full: Well organised, with plenty of toilets, changing areas, and well signed so you found everything easily.

Bit of a drag round the field out and back, but fine once you hit the road.
Glad the weather was kind to us, no rain or hot sunshine. Plenty of water stops, loved the free shower at the final one !

In short: A shinning example of a fab 10k run, welll done Wargrave
In full: A very enjoyable run, the rain added to the enjoyment, and it did not dampen the support and enthusiasm of the marshalls around the course. a first timer for Wargrave and one of the best in my view

In short: What rain?
In full: This was my very first event and enjoyed it immensely. Managed a sub 50, which is what I was hoping for for my first 10k, so very happy. :)

The terrific organization make this a great race to take part in from a runners perspective, and really helped to calm any pre-race worries for this first timer. Clear markers for the duration of this slightly undulating course, which is challenging enough to keep it interesting throughout, and encouraging marshals who kept smiling despite the rain.

A big thank you to all of those involved and who make this race happen!

Would love to do this event again, with or without rain (I actually liked the rain), so hopefully see you next year for a new PB.
