In short: Well organised but could do with a clock at the finish
In full: The race was well organised & marshalled and good as part of a training programme, but needs a clock at the race finish & better signs for toilets. Very challenging hill!

In short: My 3rd race as a novice and definately the hardest!
In full: I knew 'the hill' would be bad after running downhill for so long at the start - I had no idea that it would be that tough though! Still, a fantastic mornings workout - I really felt that I'd achieved something when I crossed the finish line - I'll definately be back next year - hopefully with a better finish time as well!

In short: great, tough race
In full: My first ever race and what a tough choice it was. That hill really knocked the stuffing out of me (twice!) -but I'll be back. Never having done a race before I have nothing to compare it with but I must say the marshalling seemed suberb -Well done Crowborough Runners.

In short: What goes down comes back up (twice)
In full: This was supposed to be my home town race, but that anther story! Even though I know the local area, I still got caught out by the steepness of the hill up Palesgate. To do it twice was a really killer. Despite the hills and the fact that I arrived late & didn’t have time for a warm up, I was still quite pleased was my finishing time.
A special mention for the organisation of the race, which was very well marshalled. I don’t think I’ve ever seen as many marshals before on a half marathon course before let alone a 10K.
