In short: My best race this year!
In full: Super day, super scenrey at the top of those hills, excellently organised number/chip collection, good marshalling to start, good support all the way round and a great finish straight! And a PB (at the 5th attempt)into the bargain! I'll be back next year, too I expect. Just take an opinion poll on what "memento" finishers would like - not another t-shirt please! Nevertheless, loved the race!

In short: Love this race, great start to the year. Marshalls are FAB.
In full: 2nd year of running this race for me, and I'll be back again next year. It's all very well organised and there's a great atmosphere. The marshalls are fantastic, and the stand out feature of the race. For a plodder like me, it's great to have such encouragement all the way round.
Nice to kick myself into gear for Marathon training.

In short: Superb start to the road racing year
In full: I made a 100+ mile round trip to come to the NTRIX because I heard it was a great event. I'm glad to say I wasn't disappointed. It was brilliantly organised with lots of support and encouragement from the marshals and the locals. A freezing day but bright winter sunshine allowed for a good time and an uphill stretch just before half way was a bit of a sting in the tail but on the whole it was a quick course with beautiful rural surrounds. I'd definitely make the trip to this event again. Well done Stratford AC. Superb!

In short: Brilliantly organised - A fantastic race to start the year
In full: Massive credit to Stratford AC - organisation, Race HQ and marshals cannot be faulted - and although the route is 'undulating' the distance of 12K means there is bags of PB potential

In short: Excellent Race - Organisation and marshalls were brilliant.
In full: Couldn't fault anything, excellent parking, no queues for your number, quick moving toilet queues. A couple of challenging hills bit seemed to be more than enough downhills. The biggest plus point was the marshalls - every single one encouraged people all the way around.
Well done Stratford AC - Definitely back next year!

In short: Glorious scenery, great marshalls
In full: Did this race for the first time last year and loved it so I came back for more. It's nice and hilly but as many downs as there are ups and marshalls make it that bit easier by their great encouragement. I don't think I've ever run a better-marshalled/organised race. Love it!

In short: Great friendly atmosphere with a challenging but short hill half way round
In full: A lovely race running through countryside with a climb up a short (1/4 mile) hill half way round. Rewarded at the top of the hill with a great view and a down hill section into the village of Loxley. Another more gentle hill near the end, but the last 1km is down hill to the finish with great support from the supporters and your fellow runners at the finish
