In full: They got all the things right as far as runners are concerned - accurate course measurement. Mile markers in the right place. Clear marshalling. Quick results. Photos available at the finish. One point about the cakes... - how about having them in the presentation hall next time as I found it a little difficult to shovel down a slab of cake so soon after racing flat out for nearly an hour!

In short: The last mile up hill was hard, but a very enjoyable race
In full: I enjoyed the race, thank you to all the marshals who kept all the runners going. And a very big thank you for the people who made the cakes which were delicious and very welcome at the end of the race. The facilities at the sports centre were good. I am glad it was not raining/ bad weather as I would not have liked to run the race then walk back to the leisure centre. Defiantly a race to run again.

In full: I came down from Reading and stayed with the in-laws. Had a great time and everybody was very friendly. Love this part of the country and it always looks better with a bit of sunshine.
I will plan to do it again next year. Thanks to the organisers for a great day.

In full: The coffee and cakes at the finish were a sight for sore eyes after this years race. It was so cold and so wet, I never thought i would thaw out. The marshalls, as ever did a absolutely brilliant job standing around for hours on end in those awful conditions. Thanks very much to all of them!
