In full: Nice route, some little up and down hills. good support on way round, lots of drink stations, nice shirt and mars bar (my bro got 2 in his bag), very warm on day but it was breezy, will be back next year, PB potential!

In short: Friendly race, with a range of pace.
In full: My second year running this race. Some hills that slow you down in the mile up to the half-way point but an interesting course. Good bunch of spectators all all-around and very well-marshalled. The introduction of chip timing was a good idea as was the use of projected time zones at the start. It meant that the start was not the cavalry charge at the front that it was last year. Seamless organisation and something for everyone. Well done to the organisers and thanks again.

In short: Top quality local event
In full: Missed the cavalry charge start of last year a little, but can't do that with chip timing and that's what runners want more these days. The race itself was well organised and well marshalled - can't fault it at all. Well done Wargrave Runners - see you next year :)

In short: Nice sized local event
In full: I think some of the hills were a little more than undulations! Weather was perfect, very well organised, great marshalls, started on time, quite relaxed but I doubt a PB for me (forgot to stop my Garmin in the excitement of finishing. Nice gooy bag, but ould prefer a medal to a T-shirt, takes less space to store.

In short: You can guarantee warm weather for Wargrave! Great race!
In full: This was my 3rd time at Wargrave and it didn't disappoint. Very well organised, chip timing an added bonus this year, lots of marshalls and a nice T-shirt and goody bag to finish.
Undulating? oh yes! and I felt there were more ups than downs this year, but that was just me struggling to keep myself on target for a good Wargrave time! Fab race.....will be back for more!
