In short: Brilliant organisation, lovely scenery, accurate mile markers. Will be back.
In full: Thanks to the excellent marshalls and organisers. Not too hot, but is 9.30 doable as a start time? Surely not too hard to get up early in the middle of summer! Abbey dash starts at 9.30 in dark and damp November. Thanks again.

In short: Nice scenic course, well attended, pleasant runners and marshalls
In full: Its a long time since I entered a race (twenty years!) so I was a little aprehensive. No need to worry though as it was a good day. Very hot, but bearable - course good, well marshalled. Will definetely enter again.

In short: Fantastic Course
In full: I really enjoyed this race. The scenery was fantastic and the marshalling was excellent. The course was not too hilly and the roads it ran on were very quiet. It was very hot but there was nothing that could be done about that. At least it was a 10am start so the race was over before it got too hot

The heat today made it tough and the steady hills felt more challenging as a result but overall very enjoyable and extremely well organised. The marshalls were superb.
