In short: Quick course, well organised, decent changing facilities.
In full: 2nd visit to a Chasers Sunday 10k at Regents Pk for me. These are well marshalled events run over mostly flat paths so PBs are very likely. Good spread of ability so slower participants aren't excluded or unwelcome. Facilities are good with loos, lockers, changing rooms and showers. Small niggle, not every K was marked and I was unsure of pacing in places, but it was a windy day and missing a best by 9 secs may be down to the gusts. Looking forward to the summer series when I'm sure a few PBs will be set.

In short: RP 10k
In full: Would be wise for the organising club to check weather forecasts and arrange with parks (or do themselves) to grit the tight corners. It was very icy and I saw one runner with a badly bloodied knee following a slip.
Otherwise - lovely location for a run but not the fastest course. Although it's pretty flat, there are several sharp turns.

In full: This is a super race. Excellent organisation, lots of very encouraging marshalls. Water station (3 circuits, so you can grab a cup every 3.3k if so inclined). Beautiful sunny day and a PB - couldn't ask for more!
