In short: Undulating first 5k followed by flat second half, nice route, great cause.
In full: Really enjoyed the 2012 race. Weather was on the cool side for spectators but ideal for running. Only two hills in first half, with nice long downhills in between. Lots of cheery marshalls and residents. Great local race for a great local cause (Chilterns MS Centre). Thanks Prestwood.

In short: tough llittle run in the Chilterns. Two tough hills. Lovely atmosphere. Great Sunday run. Hope the new London to Brum does not bring it to an end
In full: Love this race. A low key jaunt in the Chilterns which you underestimate at your peril. Two hills which get the heart racing and the legs aching. A tee shirt and a medal await you at the end. I'll be back.

In short: Well done again, well organised and supported as always
In full: Much more expensive this year, but as its now being run by a charity and the proceeds go to them I didn't mind paying the extra.
This is my local race; the first 5k is very hilly through beautiful Chilterns woodland, the second 5k is flat through Prestwood village.
Parking is easy, the new "vest chips" worked well and all in all very pleasant.
