In short: Tough-two BIG hills but a great favourite,well run.
In full: Its up and down all the way. This is a tough challenge; the first mile long hill comes within three minutes of the start. You do it twice. You end with a half mile hill up to the race course. So,its hard. But very well run,nice atmosphere-the band is always lovely (Land of Hope and Glory at the start!).Results on the website quickly.I've done it three times and I can't fault it really. Bravo!

In short: loved it!!!!!!!!!!!
In full: 1st time at this event and felt the organisation was faultless, no negatives for me, a great course with excellent marshalls.
Shame about the horse riders, but I guess they also have a right to the paths regardless of what event goes on. Anyway a great start to the morning/year and well done to Tadworth AC for a great race.

In short: Positively balmy weather compared with previous years - at least 2C and that's warm for that area!!
In full: As always, well marshalled. If anyone expects an easy course in this area, they will be disappointed - it's the usual hard starter for Brighton / London etc with psychologically more ups than downs which is appropriate bearing in mind that the race is run on Upson Downs.
:-)
And just think, next year's event may well be on New Year's morning to clear everything out of the system!!

In short: I found this quite a dull run which is disappointing for my first race.
In full: Not a huge number of competitors, Tarmac cycle path track.

In short: Always a good start to the running year
In full: I've commented elsewhere on what appears to be an orchestrated campaign to interfere with the race by others.
But that aside, the usual excellent organisation by the club and long may the Taddy Ten remain where it is.

In short: Excellent race - Well done Tadworth AC
In full: Brilliant race, with faultless organisation. Got a PB by three minutes, so absolutely chuffed. Horses were a problem this year (did they not know that there would be 500 runners going along those lanes at that time?). Despite that it was a brilliant day... well done Tadworth AC and thanks to all the marshals.
