In short: Very good training ground
In full: Lots of serious runners in training but good for the beginner or slower runner that needs encouragement. I used it as training for a half-marathon, gruelling but a jewel. There aren't many places in London to go running where you leave the traffic and noise behind. Well worth it!

In short: Excellent organisation. Inspite of it being a relatively small event it was not intimidating at all and there were lots of very supportive marshalls

In short: Friendly organisers - love the early morning start before it gets busy!
In full: This race suits experience club runners to beginners. The organiser were really encouraging, friendly and helpful. Also the park is a lovely place to run round! Great start to the weekend!

In short: 6 laps of the park - a bit brain dumbing!
In full: ok if you are training for the marathon - good opportunity to get some mileage in.
