In short: The smiliest marshallis, some of the nicest scenery, all good fun - thank you!
In full: This race is friendly, great scenery and despite being bitterly chilly all the marshalls smiled, clapped and shouted encouragement. All in all put a big grin on my face for the rest of the day. Agree with the other posting that moving the start to the green with more running in the woods would be a good idea.

In short: I love this race. I'll be back next year
In full: This is a perfect race. A nice mix of runners, friendly marshalls, a pretty route, a medal. I think the food and hot drink stall was a good idea, especially as it was so cold.

In short: As usual a well-organised and worthwhile event. Well Done.
In full: One suggestion for improving the route......
This may be to use the school as a race HQ, but to then "walk" the runners down to the Green (half a mile away) and start and finish the race on the Green at the foot of Arbrook Lane. You will need to compensate by adding extra distance in the woods.
This would then avoid the traffic along Milbourne Lane. (Most people noticed the guy in the Jag at the start who sat there impatiently sounding his horn).
Hope this helps.

In short: very well organised race with a medal to finish, nice countryside run (as close to it in London) would do it again next year.

In short: Great local event, only possible improvement could be the addition of a coffee stall for specatators, this could also be an additional fund raising scheme for the scholl

In short: Lovely route and friendly marshalls
In full: I have done this race for five years, and I never tire of it. The route is so pleasant and varied - the only bit I don't like is the slog uphill to the finish. The marshalls are really friendly and supportive. I enjoyed the warmup this year. Have I managed to miss it in the past, or is it a new thing?

In short: Great race, lovely support from friendly marshalls, good atmosphere
In full: A lovely race through great tracks with only a few slight hills, the marshalls were really friendly which made it even more enjoyable. Try this for a first 10k to give you a taster, but good for pushing a semi off-road PB!

In full: My 3rd time doing this one and is definitely a favourite. Was my first ever 10K in 2003 and I keep coming back due to the scenic route and friendly supportive marshalls. Well done Esher Church School! :)
