In short: Good run on a relatively flat course (some minor inclines). Worth doing if local, but would be a little disappointed if travelling from further afield.

In short: Reasonably well organised race ruined for me by an absent marshall
In full: Unfortunatly my race was ruined by the missing marshall by the police station roundabout. The guy in front of me went straight on and I followed. Spoke to the organisers afterwards and he did not know why there was no marshall there directing people down the path.

In short: nice flat race which was well organised with good support
In full: nice flat race-apart from the humpback bridge on the A59. Well organised and good support from the marshalls,it was really appreciated on such a cold day.
But overall really enjoyed and would do again.

In short: real pb potential
In full: this is a great little race and their are not many decent 10 milers left these days. my only minor grumble is where were the car park signs? and the a marshall directing traffic sent me to the wrong place!!! a map of where to park would be a help next year. other than that keep going, good stuff.

Good points

1-fast, almost flat route
2-well organised
3-easy to find

bad points

1-car park not signposted and misdirected by marshall

p.s. many thanks to the time keeper thant was counting down to 63min, you got me a 62 time
