In full: Yet again PWR put on a brilliant race today. The marshalls were really encouraging, the pre and post organisation was spot on with secure bag drop and massage available. Jelly Babies and beans at the halfway mark was a nice touch. A real village feel to it. Make this part of your 2011 race calendar.

In full: Excellent organisation, lovely course, fantastic marshalls - especially Jerry with his sweeties and the lady who managed to be at the top of every hill shouting encouragement - together with great local support makes this a race in a million. Will be back year after year.

In short: Quite rightly known as one of the best 10k races in the UK
In full: Highly encouraging marshalls and reasonably large crowds gathered at various points throughout the race creates a great atmosphere. Very well signed throughout with fluorescent 'trip hazard' signs marking steps/tree roots during the forest stage. A great mix of road and trail, slightly undulating in places but nothing too challenging. The trails can get fairly narrow in places but i found there was always room for overtaking if careful. Definitely one for my 2011 calendar!
