In short: Well marshalled, friendly race, but VERY wet and muddy!
In full: This is a review from the very back of the field! Slightly depressing to be lapped by 5 front-runners this month (only 4 last time), but an otherwise enjoyable run. A lovely cammeraderie between those of us who knew we would be at the back and were likel to be lapped

In full: The weather made this race seem worse than it was but with waterlogged paths and strong winds with the odd downpour thrown in my misery turned to disbelief that insufficient water had been allowed for at the end. Thank goodness it wasn't a warm day. Providing water at the end is surely a basic minimum requirement. Surely you need one drinks station even at the start of a lap would do?!

In short: A fast, friendly race with a generous prize-list :o)
In full: I confess that I'm biased - this is my club's race. It's a flat course, mostly on tarmac and good paths, with just a small section of rough trail on each lap. The organisation is smooth, results are posted promptly, and there are hot drinks in the school hall afterwards. There's also a generous prize-list, with a different vet and junior category singled out for extra prizes each month, and lots of spot prizes. Definitely worth the trip!

In short: a well run race and very friendly staff and marshalls . go on you know you want to run one .
In full: Well i did not get the finishing time i wanted but that was due to lack of training . But the organisation and running of this event is first class and if you live in the area i believe you would love the run .
