In short: Good resonable priced race in London
In full: Nice hill at the 5km mark, to catch you out so not flat for a PB potential.
The mud didn't help with 1km to go, but was to crowded and got support from the guy on the mic!

In full: My first "real" 10k (I've only done Great runs previously) and as a plodder I was resigned (but dreading) coming at the back of the field - but determined to finish 2009 on a running high - which I have certainly managed today! So a big thanks to the organisers and enthusiastic marshalls who cheered me on at every stage.
As for the route I was expecting and made the hill at 5-6k but was beaten by the muddy last 1k which was a shame :-(
I'd definitely do this race again - and would tell any plodders worried about finishing at the back - don't be - it's still a really great feeling!
It would have been nice if some of the faster runners had been more encouraging as they were leaving the event when I still had 2+km to go - big thanks to the 2 guys in the bus stop though!

In short: Good race, well organised, not flat though
In full: Managed a PB on this race, and it was well organised. Great value, plenty of drinks at the end.
There is a large hill between 5 and 6k which is a nice challenge, but the course is not flat.
Will definitely do this race again.
