In short: Great final warm up for London
In full: There were a few problems with the congested start through a muddy field and the lack of helpers at a couple of drinks stations but for a small locally run race they did a great job.

In short: Another excellent race, weather cleared up nicely. Well organised
In full: Another well organised event - Thanks you. I even managed to knock over 2 mins off my pb! Fast and flat (or as flat a half as you're going to get)
Only 2 slight negatives were the start on the field - very muddy after the rain - and the bag to finish. Maybe something a bit different next year eg hat, gloves, paperweight, mug - just not a bag or a t-shirt!
Only slight grumbles though. An excellent event and I'll be back again next year. Thanks

Only teeny gripe was the hidden finish line, I saw one or two people stop as they entered the village hall grounds, and the finish was actually round the back of the building
