In short: I enjoy this race, it's quite enjoyable and a nice distraction from the FLM
In full: I have to say well done to the organisers, they do put on a good event and even managed some decent weather during the race! Its not the biggest event/race but provides those taking part with a nice distraction from the FLM. Nice touch with the tee-shirt depicting the centenary of the club. All-in-all, a good event and a good morning out.

In short: Love this race!
In full: I believe this race is well worth taking part in every year.
It does have the feel of a standard training run during the course, but the final stretch to the track is great, really special. I was slightly thrown off by the race clock mounted upon the car this year, lucky I was timing my own progress really.
Despite the few problems with parking and traffic on the route, I feel this event is a raw, exciting welcome to the spring/summer events.
I'll be back!
