In short: Wobbly start but turned out great!
In full: I'm none too keen on running laps, but the figure of 8 shape means you're not always turning in the same direction. The course marshalls were great - very encouraging and smiley! The change in weather from grey to clear blue didn't hurt either.

In short: Good race, shame about the multiple laps.
In full: Good race, but (reading by my previous reviews) I'm never a big fan of doing multiple laps. Although saying that this one did have a certain charm about it, with the parklands seeming to drown out the throng of city life in the backgroup and the sound of animals from the zoo going about there daily life....the laps seemed to disapear quickly.

In short: Well done to the organisers. Properly marshalled. Took a nice route through the park and it didn't really feel as if we were running around in circles.

In full: Rainy and wet at the start, it didn't look good, but the wind dropped a little and the sun came out. Turned into a nice run round a picturesque park. Even managed a PB. Very supportive marshals and a nice mix of abilities. Nice race.
