In short: Good race, disappointingly doesn't qualify as a PB as on grass
In full: Good race- first 2 miles around West Park, then out on to road and pavements (not all were cordoned off so pedestrians were sometimes in the way) and then back into the park for the final mile.
Free photo and t-shirt at end, as well as spot prizes- excellent for price.
Only drawbacks- results and presentation were slow and times do not count as a PB as it was on grass.
Otherwise, good run.
