In full: Beautiful day for it.
Felt cheated when I got to the 5km point to find a hill laying in wait - had been assured on entering that the course was flat.
Very good run though, tougher than others I have done but definitely still beginner-friendly.

In short: Nice day but small turn out...
In full: Very quiet event with little in the way of frills. That said, the organisation was smooth and the forecasted rain was actually sunshine :)

In short: Great course...
In full: Loved the course. People were really good. Only bugbears were the course not having kilometre markers, not being 10k and I thought the goody bag was relatively poor - I'm guessing Life Fitness were pleased with it though...

In short: A lovely course but needed more markers
In full: Although I was dubious about the out and back course idea it was nice seeing people both ahead and behind and both being cheered on and doing the cheering on myself!

In short: Nice run on quiet country roads. From KM 1 to half way was mostly uphill and into the wind making this a pretty tough course. Could have done with some km markers. There was one at 1km and another at half way but the others were missing...
In full: ... I saw them in a car in the car park! A few people seemed to think it was overdistance, I'd like to know if anybody who measured it on a distance monitor agrees with this, personally I think it was just a tough course? Nice goody bag: gym towel, T shirt, banana, water bottle, water, medal (the medal could have had the event name on though)

In short: Calne 10k'ish......lovely run for a Sunday, great organisation, lovely atmosphere and fabulous goody bag.......more like 11k though!
