In full: Realy well marshalled, with plenty of water stations, but i wouldn't class it as a pb course, the hills were only mild but went on for a while at times, so a good challenge. Still a good run which i would do again.
Well done harlow.

In short: Great race, well organised and marshalled
In full: Thanks to HRC/VicnVin for a well organised, well marhsalled and friendly event, from the air cadets managed parking to srinks and sponge stations and post race tea and cake. Hill at 10 km knocked me back but hey such is life. First time here but will be back.

In short: Excellent race
In full: Marshalls were fantastic, both at controlling traffic and spurring me on with encouraging words. Frequent waterstations with lots of water - handed to you with the top already open - what more could you want... a sponge station - awesome - never seen one of these before - it was very welcome. Great facilities pre and post race, easy to find venue and ample parking.

In short: Harder than I expected
In full: Good organisation - well marshalled, and the race and prize-giving were both on time. A bit more info on the website would be good and more in advance next year. I found it hillier than I expected, seemed to be a lot of long slightly uphill bits with hardly any downhill. How does that work?? OK, I did a crap time, I admit it!

In short: Outstanding!
In full: Loved this race. Marshalls and organisation team fantastic, very encouraging and dealt with the traffic brilliantly. youngsters giving out the drinks were lovely and for 400m on the track I could pretend I was actually quite quick. Plenty to drink after race. I actually cannot fault it, well done to everyone involved.
