In short: Very enjoyable morning
In full: Excellent race. The hills made it challenging enough without being impossible. The organisation was very good, the HQ at the leisure centre had everything needed, loads of parking.
Excellent support from marshalls and spectators.

In short: Good but hilly
In full: I didn't know the course and so the two long hills were a bit of a struggle but otherwise a good race.
