In short: Once again. Cransley Hospice gives local runners a chance ot contribute to this excellent charity.
In full: I have run this race every year since its inception. Because it supports a well loved and valued local charity it is very popular with " fun runners" and I don't use that term disparagingly.
The one improvement that I would like to see is an effort to organise the start better. Runners do not always line up with a regard to their finishing time. Groups of slower runners are further forward than they should be. It is a narrow start and it often takes some time for the race to sort out.

In full: My first ever race and I totally enjoyed it. Although I knew about the hills and trained for them I still found them extremely tough especially on the return loop with the strong wind in your face. A really friendly atmosphere, well organised race..will be back next yr.

In full: My first race as an absolute beginner in preparation for the GNR two weeks later. I'm a big bloke and the first hill out of the village was a beast, but the last 1k is downhill and that helped.Will be doing it again this year and the support from the locals and the spectators was tremendous. Overall it was a lovely day out. Well done everybody
