In short: A nice flat course, very well organised, with great PB potential.
In full: The airfield can depress you a bit but it beats running the whole thing on roads, that's for sure. Very nice run, with the added bonus of one or two very attractive marshals to brighten up a grey day!

In short: cold wind all the way round the airfield
In full: Nice run for this time of year, but would like to try it in September when it's a bit warmer for us old guys!!

In short: Pure PB quality - I know because I got one! Well organised, thanks for the signposts from the M40, very much appreciated. Running round the airfield was a bit dull and would have like a momento at the end. Otherwise, thoroughly enjoyed a FLAT course.
