In short: A really enjoyable race
In full: Only negatives (minor really), lack of toilet facilities and maybe some car park signs.
Nice Asics goody bag and paper weight. The free massage was excellent - well done those at Solihull University!
Will definitely do it again next year and would recommend to anyone wanting a 9 miler.

In short: A nicely put together event
In full: No complaints from this end, appreciate the start was awkward due to the re turfing going on. Goody bag was fab considering what it cost to enter..... and the guiness was cold.... Roll on 2009

In short: Great race, loved it thoroughly
In full: Really lovely run through some glorious scenery. Yes couple of hiccups with organisation at the start, but completely forgot about them once out of the club grounds anyway. Gently undulating course with no major hills makes for a good paced run
