In short: Great value and friendly
In full: As a first timer to this course I was almost caught out by the fact that the start is about a mile from the race HQ. With a heavy bag and 4 children in tow we all got there eventually!
Aside from this slightly stressful start to the day this is a great race and I enjoyed a good PB - must have been all the tension coming out!
I'll be back next year, and I'll know where to go!

In full: This race just has the 'x' factor. Well worth the long trek down from Bristol. Once again, great organisation, superb value for money and a good day out. Can't wait for next year.

In full: First time I've done this and was really impressed by the organisation and overall friendliness. Incredible value for money with free cakes, decent goodies bag etc. Apart from the one tough hill at the end nothing too challenging.

In short: good day for running but somehow I felt there was no atmosphere
In full: although the route is quite scenic it is also pretty boring with long straight stretches between hedges with no sign of life at all. Good cakes at the end and very well organised
