In short: Great race. Absolutely smashed my P.B
In full: Lovely setting for a race. Good support in the village itself and very fast race. Smashed my P.B by four minutes. A great morning for me.

In short: Top race!
In full: It's always a joy to "compete" against world class athletes. The vocal support through the village was great.

In short: A hat-trick of PBs at this event, so I went home happy!
In full: Managed to get a PB for the third year running on this flat and scenic course. Good weather conditions this year, no wind and a bit milder than the last two years.

Excellent organisation and very friendly atmosphere, again brilliant to see such a broad range of abilities from the very elite to fun-runners of all shapes, sizes and ages.

The only cavil I would have is that some of the marshalls seemed very young and a tad disinterested, so did not get the vocal support I would have liked.

Look forward to another PB next year!

In short: Friendly, fast, and very very flat
In full: Cracking race - clever route, amazingly flat, and brilliantly marshalled. What more can you ask for? No wonder entries closed before Christmas.
