In short: Excellent race, well organised
In full: A well organised race on a flat rural course, only problems were the usual runners moans, the wind was against you most of the way, and when it wasn't you started going up hill! I'm sure the race director would say that's how it should be. Looking forward to next year

In short: Well organised and well marshalled race. Fast and Flat!
In full: Well done Pock Runners - we had a grand day out at this event. 7 of us achieved PB's, which proves the great PB potential of the fast course. See you next year!

In short: Great race again
In full: Well organised, loved the mug and mars bar at the end, great marsalls and a great atmosphere amongst the runners. No real q's for the loo but didnt realise the showers for the ladies would be quite as limited. But a pb for me by nearly 4 minutes. So well chuffed! Thanks guys!

In full: My third time, and the best yet.
No queue for toilets, easy car parking, good course, and allowed me, at very short notice to take a friends number.

In short: A great race - will def be back
In full: Great race Pocklington. I missed last years race due to injury so was really looking forward to this years. Very well orgainised and marshalled. Really enjoyed it and also did better than I expected. Did a new PB despite the head/cross winds and the course being a bit more undulating than I expected. I also really liked the mug and Mars at the end. Liked the mug and choc bar - made a great change from a T shirt. I will def be back next year,

In short: Fab race - highly recommended
In full: Well organised, easy parking, very pleasant run overall. Really like the mug - agree that it makes a lovely change from a T-shirt, though I did purchase a T-shirt as well as I liked the design and it was available in a good range of sizes. (Even my daughter thought it was 'cool'!).
