In short: some tough inclines in scenic venue
In full: Had done this race in 2006, but forgotten it is some tough work! The multi terrain footing and constant ups and downs, some of them fairly steep made for a relieving feel at the finish

again as per 2006 the race had to be delayed. And again did I only see 2 toilets? Not good enough in a race with 400people.

In short: Hard multi-terrain 10k, but well worth running
In full: I found this race tough, but I had been suffering with a cold for the last week. Having set a 10k road PB 2 weeks ago I was disappointed to be 4 minutes off that pace, but agree with someone else's comments that you should expect a time 2 mins slower than your road pace.

The scenery is great, the course mixed including roads, fields, woodland tracks, metalled tracks with pot holes, and finishing on a village green. The mix of surface was interesting, but not too disruptive.

I definatley want to do it again next year in a better time.
