In short: Well organised, fast and friendly
In full: My first five miler - a well run event with friendly organisers and marshalls.
West Oark Leisure Centre is a good venue to start/finish from. Great facilities, plenty of toilets etc. Plenty of parking on local streets once the centre car park was full.
Good range of environments to run through: Park - residential - industrial - town centre - park. Nice one LERC! Fantastic overall for a 'smaller than middle sized' event.

In short: Flat course, well organised, brilliant support., pb potential.
In full: I don't normally say too many good things about LERC (local rivals and all that) but I do have to say that once again they put on an excellent race. They even got the weather right this year.
Thanks to all involved, I shall be back next year to challenge my 5 mile pb which I set in 1998 according to the previous race results displayed in the sports hall.
To all LERC members, beware Erewash on Wednesday, the Muzz is nearly back to his best. LOL.

In short: A great race, year in year out.
In full: Only 5 miles but very well attended and very well organised. I didn't go out to break records (had over 6 months without running very far), so started from the back, but came within 20 secs of PB - so can't be bad!
