In short: Well organised event.
In full: Good race. Challenging with hills, undulations (and wind and rain) so not a PB course. Well organised, friendly marshalls. Plenty of toilets (almost too many!). Think the hot water in the shower ran out pretty quick but I was one of the lucky ones!

In short: excellent marshalls
In full: Really enjoyed this race very well organised right from the start (from parking the car onwards)The marshalls were excellent along the route and gave plenty of encouragement considering the wet and windy weather. WELL DONE DEVIZES i will be back next year.

In short: Slick, and I don't just mean the muddy bits :o)
In full: For a first time event, the organisation was great (although some of the marshals were a bit unclear about where the start was going to be). Everyone was really friendly and welcoming and there were lovely little touches such as the bananas at the end.

Big up to the poor marshals who must have been soaked and chilled to the bone, yet still cheered every last racer that passed them. We all thank you for your dedication and the motivation you gave us.

The route was great and even the rotten weather couldn't dampen the great atmosphere.

I ran the Winchester 10k last weekend which is run by a "professional" company. These guys could learn a lot from SuperFlyGuy and the Devizes crew.

Thanks so much for a fab race. Looking forward to next year already :o)

In short: Top race in a lovely area. Great atmosphere and superb marshalls, despite the atrocious weather! And first time I've never had to queue for the loo before the start!
