In short: Really good race supported by exemplary organisation
In full: REally enjoyed this run, definitley a course to post a quick 10k time. No hills of note, just several inclines for the road bridges.
Warm conditions meant water station was handy. Loads of parking spaces, and every runner need has claerly been well thought out and provided. Brill race.

In short: Fun, friendly and welcoming
In full: My kids rant the fun run and really enjoyed it. The announcer was star and called the kids names out as they finished.

Organisation was very good but the local car drivers have no patience and on one narrow lane ther were 2 cars trying to pass each other among the runners.

Back next year for another PB hopefully

In short: Well organised 10k with PB potential
In full: Enjoyed this 10k, fairly flat and good for a pb. Plenty of parking, easy to get away afterwards, good efficient marshalling and quick publication of the results. Also like the towel
