In short: Great run
In full: I really enjoyed this run. I wasn't sure about the 3 laps but actually it meant that the course was really flat and non complicated which allowed me to get a PB for the first time in ages! It also meant tgat you could see more runners which, together with the cheering marshals, really gave this a friendly team feel. Looking forward to next year.

In short: well-organised race, flat, good for a PB
In full: As a vet with bad nakles & a cold I was a bit doubtful abpout turning up, but this was a well-organised race, with friendly marshals & a nice flat course. I feared I might find 3 laps boring, but it didn't feel like that. I got my best 10K time since June 2010 & got a nice goody bag as well

In short: Fast and flat
In full: Really enjoyed this race. The course was fast and flat with definate PB potential (I took 10 secs off mine.) Marshalls were pretty good, some better than others but mostly encouraging and friendly. Nearly got taken out by a dog on the 1st lap and had to hurdle it, the owner was oblivious but not a problem. Nice goody bag at the end. Will be back next year.

In short: Well organised, decent sized run with potential for speed
In full: Well organised run. Was initially dubious of the 3 lap route but it was good - easy enough to go fast with one slightly challenging long slow hill towards the end. Very decent goody bag at the end as well. Will sign up for 2012.
