In short: Really lovely race, clearly organised by runners!
In full: Having planned on doing this the last few years and then not making it, I'm glad I did this year.
A thoroughly enjoyable race that I know I'll be coming back to year after year from now on.
Perfect size field of people, really good mix of abilities, scenery fair enough, it's Victoria Park, excellent goody bag, medal, towel, bagels at the finish line.
And another thing(s) it's
a) on a Saturday, so you've still got your Saturday night
b) it doesn't start until 11am so you've also got your Friday night out too.
Whatever your level, do this race.

In short: Excellent, recommended.
In full: I've done a number of different 10Ks in London and this is my favourite so far. Professionally-organised but not in-your-face and still friendly. Big enough but not too big (about 1000 runners). I'm not a fan of multi-lap courses but this is OK. Also good to see it supports local running clubs (you use their clubhouse) and charities. It definitely has PB potential.

In short: Well organised, fun race
In full: This is a great race for all types of runners. The organisation was faultless with plenty of facilities. Great goody bag and the bagels are superb.
Wish it could have been a single lap but if it needs to be three to get such great facilities on the route its a small price to pay.

In short: Loved it! Great atmosphere, gorgeous scenery and excellent PB potential
In full: My first Pride 10k - had read good things about it and they are all true. Very well organised, particularly liked the cream cheese bagels at the end. The marshalls were excellent, really encouraging and friendly. Plenty of people lining the route cheering you on. Great goody bag - loving the towel. And to top it all I beat my PB by a whole minute. Definitely on my race calendar for next year and probably the happiest 10k I have done so far. Thanks to all the organisers :o)

In short: Nicely organised & a definate PB race
In full: Three laps of Victoria Park, perfect for a PB hunter. I'd hoped for a 53 min, somehow got a 51:46. Mrs also enjoyed her first 10k.
Atmosphere was good at the end of every lap where the majority of support was. Could have done with some toilets near the start line as this was 600m from the finish area. Also would have been good to have the water station on both sides of the path to spread out runners.
Excellent course though & a nice towel to boot!

In short: Another well-organised, good-spirited Pride Run
In full: Once again this was a great race. The atmosphere is upbeat, the crowd diverse in background and ability, and the organisation is great. Newbies and experienced runners will get something out of this.
