In short: One for runners after a chance at a PB
In full: One of my favorite races. Very fast course with great views of Windsor and SW London. Easy to get to by car. Can be a bit like a training run if not many other runners are taking part. Very well organised and a great chance to have a midweek run.

In full: The first race I ever did after taking up running 4 years ago. The fact that I've not missed one since says it all! From arriving at the car park to leaving at the end, everything runs (ho ho) like clockwork. Usually the wind is a factor, but last night, practically no wind. Add a friendly atmosphere, and superb setting, what more could you want? Thanks to all marshals and crew, see you next month.

In short: Gem of a race !
In full: What a gem of a race. If your after a PB - this is the one. Everyone was really friendly and a great atmosphere. Will defo be back to race this again. Was a tad windy, but didn't notice it once I got going. Thank you to Purple Patch and the marshals on the day.
