In short: undulating to verging on hilly, nice mix of rural and villages.
In full: Very friendly. Run past a couple of nice looking village pubs & get the support of the drinkers. Despite all the rain it was warm & dry for the race and only one major puddle at mile 2 which could be avoided. Good atmosphere at the start and end. Well done Cherwell!!

In short: A fairly tough course, well marshalled and organised. Worth doing again but not for PB chasers

In short: A tough course; friendly marshals. Atmostphere made special by the disco and DIY bbq!
In full: A special thanks to the first aiders who helped me after the race - it was very hot and I suffered quite a bit from dehydration!

In short: A murderous 6 miles on a hot Saturday night. Made worth while with support from the marshalls.

In short: A lovely countryside lap but very challenging if you don't like hills. Don't remember there being a flat bit.
