In short: Far Too Many Runners! Was better when low key.
In full: Great course but this year too many runners spoiled the race. Go back to number you can manage. Was a first race for one person with me, loved the run hated the finish.

In short: Quite flat, great conditions and very scenic

In short: Great event for beginners and countryside lovers!
In full: This was a well attended race with a huge range of abilities on show. The organisation was good albeit a bit WRVS/Dad's Army. T-shirt was good. The course should have made use of some of the broader roads within the estate to avoid the congestion around the start/finish/t-shirt area. All in all, a good warm up for the Worksop Half Marathon which will make better use of the estate.

In short: Lovely location
In full: Lovely 10K. Really good for beginners due to the large turnout.

The start was too congested though. I started at what i thought was near to the front but it still took an age to actually cross the start line. it then took 2K to be able to run freely.

That aside I really enjoyed the race - what a smashing location.
