In short: Does what it says on the tin. A real 'Fun Run', something to do at the weekend.
In full: Could complain about a few things but this isn't supposed to be a race so it would be terribly unfair of me to do it. A good laugh on an 'interesting' course. Main shame about all the road works, but in a way made it even more comical.

In full: What a fab day out! Didn't see anyone wearing a frown with their Santa Suits, just how it should be. This will be a definate on my calendar every year.

In full: Better route than last year - published route looks better still, but can't avoid roadworks at moment. Never seen so many smiling faces. Even my wife managed to smile and run at the same time! Let's hope we got the record
