In short: Best organisation yet
In full: 3rd time in this race, and the chip timing and change to finish made an already well organised race even better, grat T shirt too. Thoroughly enjoyed it, even though I got nowhere near the PB I was hoping for. Will be back next year.

In full: my 1st bolton 10k and pb 38.43, not the easiest of courses but the dreaded hill wasnt that bad after all(i can say that now 10hrs after race!) well organised and fantastic day, get there early for parking space though!

In short: this was my first race ever and i loved it. the organisation was really good imo but some of the directional signs could have been a bit clearer for me(ie..getting to the start and booking in). v friendly and kind peeps, great not to hard run.

In short: Good run with a nice mix of club and newbie runners. Couple of hills make this not the most PB friendly but clear marking and good marshalling help a lota
