In short: My first 10km race, not the best to start with due to the steady incline for the first 5km. Still at least when I run a flat course my time will improve substantially!
In full: A very good race for those looking for a challenge, only decided to do the race on the Saturday (day before), called organisors, very helpful. If I do it again, will put in A LOT of hill training. Great views from the top and a nice scenic run through the castle.
