In short: The ever enthusiastic marshals really make this race
In full: Unfortunately this year it was cold AND wet but you can't really blame Eynsham RR for that and they did make up for it with a lovely selection of cakes at the end! The course is narrow in places which makes it hard to overtake but that's not so much of a problem for me at the slow end of the field.

In short: Brrrr.....
In full: Thank you Eynsham Runners and Marshalls spot on, with the added bonus of tea and cakes. Well organised, I even heard the start gun which is a first being at the back.

In short: Full marks to Eynsham RR !
In full: A good race under pretty miserable conditions. Took a lap to "warm up" although I remained envious of the guy who wore his long sleeved thermal vest on top of his running gear. Great warm atmosphere for the apres run in the hall, and woolly hats off to all the marshals & supporters who braved the icy wind & rain to make this such a worthwhile run for us. T-shirt doubly welcome as an immediate extra layer at the finish.

In short: Fun friendly cold & wet
In full: As usual the Eynsham road runners organised a superb race (couldn't control the weather but nevermind)-the marshalling always great and the course always challenging and harder than it seems. Was good for celebrity spotting also! (clue:a local oxford music genius called Thom). Thanks also for the t-shirt which has to be one of the best race t-shirts ever (is this a forum topic?)
