In short: Thoroughly enjoyable ;¬) with a moderate hill. Organisation could improve.
In full: PB for me - with the satisfaction of a moderately challenging course. Good for improving runners.
Organisation could improve - drinks station would be good, and there's a bottleneck on the way to the start. It's a kissing gate which only lets 1 person through at a time, a severe nuisance for supporters with pushchairs. Although I think it may have been Longstocking and Flash in the Pan lingering at the gate which contributed to the delay . . .

In short: Nice scenery and traffic free. Doing the hill twice hurts. Needs a drink station somewhere on the route.
In full: I enjoyed this race, except for the hill which was quite painful on both occasions. It's a lovely park to run through and great to face very little traffic. I was gasping for a drink, but no drinks station - with it being two loops, they'd only need one to keep us all happy. I thought the little plastic bag as a "prize" was a bit disappointing (and rather smelly!). But it was friendly and seemed well organised. I expect to be back next year.

In short: Attractive surroundings, and bit of a challenge
In full: Got a personal best, but the hill at the back of the loop is a real challenge and nearly killed me off both times we ran it! Lovely through the woods, perhaps a little under marshalled. Could definitely do with more water.

In short: I am new to racing and have only done a few races but this one is by far the best , didn't feel like a leper because I was unoffiliated like have at some other races
