In short: Nice course although no bag drop
In full: Weather was terrible but a really nice atmosphere. Hill climb was a little unexpected but you always get to run down. Disappointed there was no organised secure bag drop for such an open venue

In short: Excellent event
In full: Third time doing this event for me and have improved on my times each year. Missed out on a PB by 1 second which was rather annoying but that gives me focus for future events I suppose. It's a good course and the free tshirt and doughnut afterwards are a definite bonus.

In full: This is the first time I do a 10K race and despite the heavy downpour it was a good experience. The run was well organised and the atmosphere celebrationary. I'll definitely be joining in next year.

In short: brilliant run, my first one and I absolutely loved it.
In full: rain started pouring down the minute the race started, and it only stopped once I crossed the finish line, good thing it's my prefered weather condition. marshalls were helpful and motivating,and though there were 1200 runners the race track wasn't too crowded. I loved it, expected a more hilly terrain, and finished better than I anticipated.

In short: I love this run.
In full: With all due respect to the other runners, what hills? I thought the route was fairly flat and fast. I knocked four minutes off my PB today and will definitely be back next year. The doughnuts at the end were a lovely treat. Thanks to all the volunteers.

In short: third year, will be back in 2010
In full: One of my favorite London races, it is getting bigger every year. New feature was the chip which took the time at the start and finish, too.
Thank you Dunn's Bakers for the doughnuts and the coffee.
This year the weather wasn't great, but still plenty of supporters on the route.
It's not the best race for a PB as there are some hills and the course takes a few sharp turns, but overall a great day out.
