In short: We made the dog dance!
In full: We loved this race so much last year that we travelled over from Leeds to do it again. We were not disappointed. The T-shirt (amazing design!), medal and goody bag were excellent. Organisation was fantastic from parking on the school field, handing out t-shirts, start/finish and right along the route. The marshalls were all lovely and friendly and the course was well marked out with kilometre markers and plenty of arrows. This is a lovely, friendly, fun race to do and excellent value for money.

In short: Better and better
In full: I have to admit, although I loved this race first time around I wasnt that impressed with absolutely everything..This year however was superb and almost faultless..A slightly delayed start did nothing to distract from the magnificent atmosphere and overall organisation by the Mad Dog team.Their tremendous efforts at creating and hopefully maintaining the 'best 10k of the year' accolade, was clearly on display.Marshals were friendly, goody bags totally brilliant and the unique medal is a joy to have earned.A wider finish/start and possibly a delayed start for sub 50 runners would be the icing on the cake.The straight stretch near the sea front acts as a good warm up for the remaining twisty turns around Southport.A MASSIVE well done to Adrian and his team.How a 10k should be done.Other organisers take note! Mad Dog 10k - Highly recommended.10/10

In short: one of the best
In full: An excellent event that I would without hesitation recommend to all experienced and new runners.The course is FLAT !
One of the most generous in that one received a superbly designed technical t-shirt , a medal and one of the best goody bags around.
You would be dog-matic not to give this event a go next year.
