In short: A good race despite the weather
In full: A huge thanks to everyone who made sure this happened this morning. The weather was filthy but plenty of great marshalls and supportive locals made it enjoyable. Managed a good time too!

In short: Well organised race. Shame about the weather
In full: Second time here and once again well done to the organisers and a big thankyou to the cheerful supportive marshalls. Last year the weather was lovely but this year it was awful. Running the uphill section from mile 6 to mile 9 into the wind was horrible! Still, that is the British weather for you I suppose. The atmosphere was very good. This is a very friendly event and I was surprised how many locals turned out to cheer on the runners despite the rain.

In short: Great run!
In full: This was the first time I took part in this race and I really enjoyed it. Despite the weather the marshals were really friendly and supportive and the kids giving out water were really encouraging. The hills were challenging but nothing too difficult. Knocked 15 mins off my pb so absolutely chuffed with the day! Great goody bag too!

In short: A long-standing favourite event
In full: Excellent event. Course is quick and undulating, scenery is as good as it gets for Bracknell, organization is faultless and goody bag is generous. Huge thanks to all the organizing team this year for enduring such filthy weather. See you next year.
