In short: A good 1st 10k race
In full: My first 10k race and I really enjoyed it! Couple of challenging hills but not as bad as I thought they'd be which was an added bonus. Well organised and a very pretty route. I'd definitely run it again.

In short: A friendly and well organised race, great value for money.

In short: Great example of a trail race
In full: The course took in field & forest & had a bit of everything. From tree roots & branches, as well as dips & hills to negotiate, the uphill final section made for a tiring finish. The nice showers followed by free tea & cake was a good way to end.
