In short: Tough course. Hard 3rd mile, even harder 4th, then downhill to the finish. Well supported small local race in a village fete, with plenty for spectators to do. Worth doing. May be back.

In short: Very British and very friendly
In full: Was part of village fete and had lovely rural Britsh atmosphere. Funh spot prizes were a nice touch, and the only down side was almost becoming a casualty of the welly throwing competition next to the finishing line!

In short: Good race as part of the Broad Town school fate. Would definitely do it again.
In full: A couple of tough hills in the last 2 miles, and on a hot day they seemed especially tough! The rest of the course was flat with the first mile and last 1/2 mile downhill. Good finish in the school with a welcome crowd! Good race all round
