In short: Very well organised and fun quick race
In full: Everything is set up to make this race simple and enjoyable.
Plenty of friendly marshalls to help with the parking, water stations and directions.
The course itself is very forgiving and I've posted a PB the last 2 years I've taken part.

Nice medal this year too.

In short: Super Organised and a Fast friendly Race
In full: As has been said this is a great 10K organised by the same people who week in week out organised the Black Park parkrun.... so runs like clockwork! Cheap to enter and great handouts at the end. One to do every year!!

In short: Feels just like a longer Parkrun!
In full: This is just a brilliant race, I can't rate it too highly. I was worried the small field would mean lots and lots of fats runners, but, no, it felt just like a Parkrun. No tension, a real relaxed feel about it. If you are a first timer, its a great race to start for a 10k.

Brilliant organisation, loads of marshalls, overall downhill course, mars bars, Mars Bar drink, free parking for runners and a £5 Sweatshop voucher...

Run under trees, it would be good in the sun too.

Just a brilliant race. Thank you Marshalls.
