In short: Challenging, but rewarding and what a great day for it!
In full: Would have been nice if the traffic opposing the runners had been going a little slower, especially 'Postman Pat'!! Overall though: great scenery, challenging course and although a bit pricey I would do it again. Just not today!

In short: My first 10k and i'm hooked
In full: Was worried about the hills before I started but discovered that they weren't nearly as bad as some people had made out. My first 10k race and enjoyed every minute of it. Will definately be back next year.

In short: HILLS HILLS HILLS
In full: three hills that are very steep is what i was told try mountains instead. Very Good for hill work and nice down hills to try and help you recover. Run down to the finish seamed to take forever. But a nice day had by all

In short: Hills spoiled the PB potential!
In full: Graded starting points were a good idea, but didn't seem to be observed by the runners.

In short: i have never seen hills like these
In full: very good race, very well organised but the 1st hill was awful and knowing that you had to do it again later was very demoralising. overall a good race and as my 1st 10K definitely a PB!

In short: Pleasant day for a steady run but disappointing organisation this year
In full: I was disappointed that this year at so few toilets that caused chaos for the last 10 minutes before the start. Not the usual goodie bag at the finish having to try and hold everything rather than having the bag like previous years. and most frustrating being told to park in the overflow car park, never had to do that before, was generally disappointed with the organisation this year, but no major issues.
