I beat last years time by 6 mins and the course record was smashed by 2.30mins.
Organisation was great

In short: Challenging & Hilly but lovely scenery
In full: The first km was through the high street which was nice and the atmosphere was great then there was a gradual climb from 2km to 5km which is tough going. At 5km it changed from tarmac to grass and went down a very uneven surfaced grass hill and through a valley. I fell as I tripped on a tree route and grazed my arm and then an elderly gentlemen fell and seriously cut his head. I think they need more of a medic attendance at 7km as it is an accident zone.
The scenery was lovely and the last 3km was downhill which was a very welcome relief. At the finish the crowds were great and really encouraging which made the race worthwhile. Definately not a race for a PB.

In short: Nice scenary, long up hils, great race
In full: Really nice scenary, although 70% of this race being up hill came as a rude awakening. The scenary was soon forgotten as the hills kicked in! Nice mix of people and levels. Only complaint was the start, started ok, but quickly back to a walk as the streets narrowed and street furniture approached.
