In short: Well done striders, well done Billericay!
In full: Very much enjoyed the undulating course which had enough ups and downs to keep you interested without being too forbidding or detrimental to speed. Organisation gets top star rating for numbers of marshalls, parking, prompt start and nice finish amongst other things. Another big plus is the early start which is very convenient as it leaves the rest of the day free.

In full: As always a well organised event. Nice weather helped and the course appeared strangley more undulating than I remembered from previous years!! Still managed a PB, dipping under 39 minutes for the first time. Very pleased, well done Striders.

In short: Fast well organised race - very enjoyable
In full: Great race starting with a couple of hills that come in before you are really ready for going up hill, but after that a very enjoyable and fast race - Definately PB material this one - broke mine by almost 4 minutes !

In short: Good weather, nice route.
In full: Not as flat as i'd hoped for, first 2k are uphill, then rolling for the rest of the race. But hey - still managed a PB :-)
Very friendly bunch of runners at the Striders it seems, this run was excellently organised and there were many many marshalls who all did a great job - thanks to them.
Good memento in the paperweight, that will go on my desk at work - and all for a tenner. Brilliant. I will return next year.

In short: Nice if challenging route, excellent organisation and marshalling - nice memnto as well.
In full: First time in this one, thoroughly enjoyed it. Challenging but fair course, not a PB circuit unless you have a blinder (- I didn't!)Great organisation, well marshalled and the "paperweight" type memento was a nice change. Would definitely do it again. Well done Billericay Striders...
