In short: Great Race
In full: Thanks for a well organized race with a very welcoming atmosphere. I came all the way from Birmingham, England to do this race and was really glad I did.I was going to the Gower for a holiday and managed to convince the wife to take this slight detour on the way...
Also, being a West Midlands police officer myself I couldn't miss the opportunity of this race. Thanks for a top class race....

In short: I will organise it again, thanks for the feed back.
In full: Just to say thanks to everyone who entered and thanks to all the marshals and officials, St. John, the WAA, and my wife. I would use timing chips but the price would go up markedly so I don't use them. I had to pay more this hence the price rise but I hope to keep it the same for next year. I'm just glad there were no hurricanes this year and the rain kept off. Again, thansk to you all and see you on the roads. The Plod.

In short: organisation excellent, parking easy and directions first class
In full: I agree that smaller events are better (and not so expensive!) and the organisation and friendliness of marshalls etc was excellent. Definately worth a repeat visit.

In short: Nice friendly race for a variety of abilities
In full: Could do with timing chips as I'd have beaten my PB with a few seconds knocked off to cross the start line.
Aside from that it was a nice race. The smaller races are definitely nicer, friendlier and better value than the events like the BUPA runs.
Will probably be there again next year
