In short: First time i've run at Moor Park I will be definately be back next year , I also managed a PB of 55 mins 57 secs thats 3mins 47secs quicker. Bring on 2008.
In full: Arrived at 1.45pm plenty of parking and very easy to find. I've never been at run that had so much going on for the runners and their families to do.Warmed up in a lovely setting and a very friendly atmosphere.
The run kicked off at 3pm and the pace at the front was fast and being near the back it was hard not to be dragged along with it. I had read on the wab site when i entered the run about the hill at 3k and boy was that tough and there were a lot of people that were caught out by it,but once that was out of the way there was a nice down hill section and the run in to the finish was flat,quick and the spectators were great.I managed a PB on a great course so a big thankyou to the organisers,the marshalls and everybody connected to this run. I will definately be back next year.

In short: Great North warm up!
In full: My first 10k and a warm up before the Great North-what a hill after 2k.I wasn't expecting it and got more than a bit worried when a guy who looked like my grandad sprinted past me(good on him!)A great first race,friendly runners and great local support particularly the kids giving out drinks on a hot day-see you next year!(Hill training starts now)
