In short: Well organised undulating two lap race with loads of support
In full: The race was very well organised with lots of friendly marshalls and great encouragement from the supporters en route. I knew it was going to be undulating but hadn't really appreciated it until running the race, atleast on the second lap I knew what to expect. Lovely downhill section to the finish and a much appreciated momento glass and bottle of water to greet me. Thank you Overton for such encouragement on the race, I needed it! Great value for money, will be back next year.

In full: This was the 2nd year that I've ran this race and I thought the organisation was great. The hills were just as I remembered! Glass was a nice memento at the end to. See you next year.

In short: Saturday 3pm Kick-off - not just for footballers
In full: First time I've done this one and I was very impressed. The organisation was spot on and the hills were as promised - but it does include a really nice down hill in the last mile, which was appreciated. Overton seems a nice place and the start and finish venue were ideal.

In short: Not as tough as I had feared
In full: Great afternoon out! Two hilly but quick loops, well supported by the locals, vocal marshalls, beautiful warm weather, nice glass at the end all less than 15 minutes from Basingstoke. Couldn't ask for anything more for £8. Will definitely be back next year!
