In short: Well organised race, nice course, shame about the weather.
In full: The organisation was very good, thanks to all at Tadley Runners for putting it on. The course is definitely undulating with one significant hill, doesn't seem to have PB potential and yet I managed a quicker time than I have for a while.

In short: What a local 10k should be.
In full: Excellent organisation, bargain price of £7 including a T shirt, friendly marshalls especially given the wind and the rain and there was a bar at the end :-). Will be supporting Tadley's excellent series of races throughout the year.

In short: Who said it was only one big hill on the 8 km??
In full: Undulating quite a bit actually, but indeed the most challenging hill was at the 8km. Did my personal best (yes, under the hour!!) so this is a special race for me and hopefully the first of many under the hour. Very friendly feeling, not too clubby at all and well worth running it even after a soaking rain that was with us for the whole race. Will be probably back next year as schedule allows, got to improve that hill at the 8th kilometre!

In short: Wet & windy, but a great race!
In full: This was my 2nd time at Tadley 10k and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Many thanks to the marshalls, a great job, especially in such wet conditions!It's definitely an undulating course, and the hill at 8k is challenging!A nice route along country lanes.....will be back for more!

In short: A well organised race; yes, who put that hill there?
In full: A lovely feel to this race; well organised, friendly atmosphere. Pity the hill at 8K wasn't so friendly! But an occasional challenge is welcome and the rest of the course is such a pleasure, along very quiet country lanes, almost traffic-free!
Will definitely be back for more- may even up my distance to 10 miles for October?

In short: Who put that hill there?
In full: So toodling along with a 30 sec PB in sight...then along came the hill at 8k and ended up 30 secs out. The race itself not far off perfect, small improvements could be: directions tweaked to mention that one way stretch after AWE, several people in the carpark couldn't find the registration and then finding the start in the housing estate was a small challenge too. But overall a really good value race on a well marshalled rural course that asks a question or two near the end. Be back next year for sure.

In short: Great race, very friendly and a nice course
In full: As a lot of people mentioned was a very hot day but thoroughly enjoyed the course. (apart from getting stitch and having to stop which ruined my time - am not eating porridge 2 hours before again!!) Nice t-shirt, a great price, well marshalled. Great day
