In short: Friendly race, well organised and with a nice bit of fuss at the finish
In full: We were blessed with a long dry spell after big bad rain earlier in the morning. It really is family friendly and I did regret leaving the family at home due to the grim weather outlook.
It a good run, slightly hilly, enough to make it testing but the finish is great with a crowd of people and the guy on the speaker system adds to the feeling of home coming after 10 miles. Like it and will be back next year, with wife and nippers hopefully.
