In short: Very flat course made for pb's.
In full: I cannot understand what these whingers are commenting about. The course was flat, amazingly organised considering the time of year and the weather (bloody freezing)plus there was free parking at the town centre. This was my first run and it was good to see all the elite runners running towards you and at what speed they run at. As a local of Telford it was a shame they only used a fraction of the Town Park as they are loads more tracks they could have utilised in the Park for this run, but all things considered I think the organisers deserve a pat on their backs for a well organised event.

In short: Really enjoyed this race. Well done.
In full: Flat and fast. Good time trial just before Christmas weight gain!!!! Well organised, I disagree with the whingers, At the start there was a seperate path for non-runners (new this year) which I thought was a good idea. Also had estimated start time zones at the start area. Just a shame some people ignored this and go to close to the front at the start. I like the out and back course because you get to see the elite runners coming towards you, normally you don't see them after the first mile.

In full: The race was really well organised, the atmosphere was great and the people were friendly.
The only negative, it could have done with some grit on the icy patch near the start.

In short: Excellent race
In full: Good bits: The course, the organisation, the digital clock at the half way stage, the medal
Bad bits: The course was very narrow but not too much of a problem given the numbers running.
Overall: I really really enjoyed this race. It was no-nonsense and it went so smoothly. I think, irrespective, of getting a PB this has to be one of the best races for the year for me. All being well I will run this next year.
