In short: One to try again next year...but where is my t-shirt?
In full: Overall a great run,friendly and well organised. My time though appears alittle amiss. I started with the 2nd bunch and my chip time and garmin time are 12 seconds apart?! I'm going with the faster time :)
And it's mentioned there were t-shirts for finishers???? Where???

In short: Enjoyed the race and did a PB despite the hills in the second 5K which I wasn't expecting. Would have liked to have got a medal but the Tee shirt is good. Need to work out access to Conkers for families while the race is taking place. Not much for th

In short: Interesting, scenic and friendly
In full: The scenery and changing running surfaces, make for an interesting run, while the hillier second half provides a good challenge to all level of runner. The organisation and atmosphere is superb - but maybe i'm biased as a regular Conkers parkrunner!

In short: Scenic setting, challenging second half
In full: This was my second attempt at this event, the first time 2 years ago was my first ever race and I was looking forward to doing it again. It is nearly all off-road so is an ideal setting for a pleasant Sunday morning run. A beginner friendly event atmosphere wise but with 2 or 3 hills in the second 5K which can really take it out of tiring legs. I did manage a PB but wouldn't say the PB potential for this race was great due to the hill near the end but overall a great race in a lovely setting.

In short: Friendly, approachable run with lovely scenery.
In full: This was the first race I had ever entered and it has given me a thirst for more! Any worries I had about finding my way around, running alone or finishing the course were soon dispelled as both organisers and competitors were friendly, everything was well signposted and I simply loved it! Can't wait for next year.
