In short: Well organised, friendly race - the hills just make it interesting!
In full: First time doing this race ( I am fairly new to this running malarky) but really enjoyed it - despite the undulating route. Weather and enthusiastic support along the way helped. Will be back next year to try to improve on my time!

In short: Another corker from the boys and girls at balfron!
In full: My 3rd year in a row and it never fails to to the biz. i recommended this race to another running colleague who brought a friend and they, despite the hills, absolutely loved the event. the atmosphere is great, the course hilly but beautiful and the locals are so supportive. i feel like helping out marshaling next year to make a contribution to this race but I'm too selfish to not race it again next year. it's not a pb candidate really but I nearly took 1 50 off last year's time so still very happy. very good course to get your 10k season going. wonderful all round event and possibly my favourite Scottish 10k of the calendar. well done to all involved. 10/10 yet again. I will continue to recommend it to everyone.

In short: An excellent event with a fantastic atmosphere and slick organisation. well done.
In full: An excellent 10k with what appears to be a good club race at the sharp end, and loads of support for all of us behind them. Thanks to the organisers, the 'workers' and all those who create the atmosphere. Lovely to see so many still around to see the prizegiving.
