In short: PLEASANT
In full: Good little race this, nice and flat and with a limit of 600 plenty of room to get going. Organisation was very good, plenty of parking very close to start, toilets in the community centre and a changing area. Nice T Shirt which made this a very nicely priced £8 race.
The only criticism i have, which is quite important really, is that as others have said the race is short, measuring only 6.04 on my garmin, which means that your PB is not really a 10k PB. Perhaps the race should be more aptly named the Hoylake 6 ?

In short: FAST, FLAT, FRIENDLY
In full: Short on distance for a 10k hence very fast times! Good fast course, plenty of parking and good value.

In short: Friendly and achievable 10 k, ideal for beginners
In full: Nice run down the beach, the off road part was a bit lumpy and restricted a possible PB but overall very flat.
