In short: Dynamite
In full: Really enjoyed the race. Level of organisation was outstanding. Tasty burgers and cakes, welcoming festival atmosphere and a big turnout offering lots of encouragement as you approach the finish. Big effort made out on the roads too - well marshalled, nearly as many cones as the M5! The course undulates gently but none of the uphill sections are very long or steep. Pleasant scenery on the way round, includes about 500m where you get to see everyone coming the other way. The only thing I'd improve would be some indication of results, or at least timing, soon after the race.

In short: Well run, good family day, lots of activities for non-runners...
In full: Really enjoyed this race would have paid a couple of extra pounds for a medal, but no coomplaints. Plus compliments to whoever made the flapjack I had after the race.

In short: grat race - atmosphere is like a very friendly village fete. PB for me (41.12). Some genlt undualtions
In full: What a great race. Great family day out, PB potential course, all abilities represented. Had a lovely sausage burger at the end. No markers on the road (although there was one at 1 mile) which didn't seem to bother me as I ran quicker than I ever had.....

In short: The high PB potential and good atmosphere make up for the naff T-shirt - lol
In full: Please please race organisers try to offer a medal for all competiters and the promise of prompt (same day) online results - these two points are by far and away the biggest incentive to encourage competitors like myself, my friends, my club and EVERy other person i have spoke to!
