In short: Well organised & fast race in quiet countryside
In full: Potentially quick course with a very fast opening mile, although the course could be tricky on a windy day as it is quite open. Excellent organisation in a lovely location. Well worth the trip on a Friday evening.

In short: Good course, well marshalled
In full: The start was crammed and the road wasn’t closed which left an organiser attempting to keep the traffic flowing through 300-400 runners which was amusing. The course was good, well marked with ample marshalls and mile markers.

In short: Fast, flat and inexplicably depressing
