In short: Two lap hilly course. Good way to start the year.
In full: Two laps in and around Epsom Downs.

A challenging hilly course mainly on tarmac. Good organisation and marshalling, plus nice woolly hat as a momento.

A good start the new year.

In short: Nice Course, problems with the marshalling
In full: Marshalls sent the leaders the wrong way at the start of the second lap. Given the number that were supervising the inch perfect parking in the car park this really shouldn't have happened. Marshalls could have been placed in more appropriate positions around the course to stop people from taking wrong turnings. Course change from last year wasn't really necessary. I regularly run along the switchback road and don't find the traffic that intimidating.

In short: A tough but enjoyable start to the year
In full: A hat in hte finishers bag is so much more useful than a medal that gets put away in the drawer and forgotten.

In short: great run to start the year.
In full: Great way to burn off all that xmas food. Good route, bit of everything. A hat for finishing was a good touch.
