In short: Worthwhile with a professional feel
In full: A great race especailly for first timers, offers good experience with hills and sharp bends. No real problems excellent for PB i smashed my previous by 5 minutes so I was very pleased!
Marshalls were helpful and positive. My only concerns were the water points my partner felt it came to soon for him whereas I would have preferred another around the 7.5 mark and had 2. I quite liked the goody bag I wasn't expecting one at all and I love the t-shirts! I wasn't at all bothered that it cost 2 raffle tickets they are good quality shirts :)
Definately worth keeping on the calender, just be aware of the need to turn up early to collect race number and chip don't leave it to late or you'll be rushing around

In short: Improvement on last year
In full: They seem to have learnt lessons with the organisation at the start and finish however it was a very early start to collect race numbers at 8.30. I think when you enter in plenty of time numbers should be posted. Nice momento though instead of a t shirt

In full: Whilst I accept the earlier point re bottles vs cups I don't think is relevant for a 10k race.

In short: Good race, lovely scenery, lack of crowd around the course , but a nice day out
In full: Got there early (8.30) so no problems with collecting number. However, am not a fan of this as i feel a necessity to arrive extra early. Better start but still crowded on at least first km. Plenty of marshalls but lack of spectators. Good finish apart from the goody bag!!! Where are te full results, any help please. Have never found the onestepbeyond the easiest race/website to navigate.

In short: Glorious
In full: A well organised race with friendly people and a lovely course set in beautiful forest. The track was all tarmac-under-tree and playfully undulating. The "momento" - half a tonne of sculptured glass - wow!
