In short: Tough but very friendly,where do i sisn up for next year?
In full: Tough for the first 6k and running into a strong wind,with a killer hill at around 4 k. But once you got to half way it was pretty flat and had some nice welcoming down hill sections.a fantastic atmosphere with over 600 runners signed up.plus a beautiful course around the beautiful warwickshire countryside.Plus the results were on line the same day!

In short: 2 climbs but great atmosphere and downhills too.
In full: Really well organised and great marshalling. Lots of support around the whole course - which was great. One long climb near the start and then shorter steeper climb up to halfway but then downhill or flat for the rest of it. Shame no goody bag but not too expensive either. Really enjoyed it and great unusual distance.

In short: Ideal 1st run of the year. Good test and good length
In full: Fisrt go at the Roman nine. Very well organised with a nice short walk to the main area for a quick stretch. Nice easy start and quite flat then a couple of good testing hills, after that it seemed mostly downhill. Very well marshalled with lots of support all the way round. Would definitely run again.

In full: Great first race of the year, PB this time out by a minute and a half so fingers crossed for the season - some hard training ahead!
Great organisation as ever on this one, chip is an addition but old school was fine. My only gripe? I kinda liked the coasters & was looking forward to adding to the collection!
