In short: A great run in the country
In full: Whilst I accept the earlier point re bottles vs cups I don't think is relevant for a 10k race.

In short: Good race, lovely scenery, lack of crowd around the course , but a nice day out
In full: Got there early (8.30) so no problems with collecting number. However, am not a fan of this as i feel a necessity to arrive extra early. Better start but still crowded on at least first km. Plenty of marshalls but lack of spectators. Good finish apart from the goody bag!!! Where are te full results, any help please. Have never found the onestepbeyond the easiest race/website to navigate.

In short: Glorious
In full: A well organised race with friendly people and a lovely course set in beautiful forest. The track was all tarmac-under-tree and playfully undulating. The "momento" - half a tonne of sculptured glass - wow!

In short: Really enjoyed the actual run but let down by organisation
In full: first race for 3 years. Enjoyed the race itself, other runners very friendly. Glad I got there early so no problems with getting chip and number, but annoyed at having to wait 15 mins extra in que at start. For the cost would have saved a lot of messing and time if chips sent out prior to race. T-shirt was a little disappointing. Apart from that had a good day met some nice people.

In short: Such a shame about the run up to the start.
In full: Predictable chaos before the start - I hate to knock organisers / volunteers but the handing out of numbers / chips was a debacle.
Once off it's such a good run. Pleasantly undulating and great scenery. The kids love it.
