In short: Perfect Sunday morning race
In full: As a newbie I decided to speed walk the race, which I did the entire way with the sweepers Clare and Chris, who was fantastically supportive. All the marshalls were brilliantly encouraging, and there was no danger of me getting lost on this race. Can't wait to be able to run the whole thing, it's a fab route. Really well organised, great marshalling, great supporters, will remain my favourite for a while I think.

In short: Excellent race
In full: Excellent friendly race, with a lovely finish on the field. It was very good value for money and the t-shirt is actually wearable for running. The marshal's were all very encouraging. Would definitely recommend :-)

In short: Very well organised race and great value for the entry fee
In full: Plenty of parking near to race HQ; first and last 1/2 mile on closed road; rest of the race on fairly quite undulating country lanes; plenty of marshals; chip timing; technical t-shirt (plus coffee and cakes available at the end.)
