In short: Brlliant well organised and fun
In full: A well organised race, hard to believe it was the first one, can't praise them enough and also the residents of Caistor who were out in force cheering us all on, just what I needed especially up the hills, and then an extremely generous goody bag and t shirt at the finish.

In short: does what it says on the tin.
In full: I know we hadn't long gone through the 8K marker but I thought I was nearly finished when I saw the 400 metres sign. Didn't realise I would pass that point again after another 1Km. I wasn't the only hopeful one it fooled and it would be better not to have it there I think. That is nitpicking though. It was a great day out. Thanks to all concerned, I'll be back.

In short: Had just enough in reserve for those hills, a very different 10k that for sure but good all the same
In full: Seemed to be a very well organised event from start to finish. Plenty of people out giving support which always helps. A nice route and although there were a few puddles through the woods that added to the experience for me. A gruelling finish at the end and think i ran my race quite well. Will be better prepared for the uphills next time.
