In short: Well Organised Village Race
In full: The number of marshalls and police was amazing for such as small race. Surprised to get a banana, jelly babies, a good quality medal and water at the end.
The course is quite hilly and the final hill was a blower but new runners should not be put off. My friend did this as his first every race and he thought it was OK for beginners.
Good to see results in 5 year categorys from 20 years old up. It meant I won my race. Anything for a win.

In short:
In full: I entered this race for the first time this year. I am a complete amateur and have only been running 6months and I really struggled with the very hilly race but absolutely loved it once i had finished in quite a respectable begginers time. Lovely medal and I would do it again but with much more hillwork training. Good family fun.

In short: Wonderful, friendly, well organised. Me, I'll run 10k any day for a medal, a banana, and a massive bag of jelly babies!
In full: For my first 10k, that wasn't bad at all! Kind of hilly though, I wonder if they're all like that? Manageable though, you know you're going to get that rotten hill at the end, as it's the one you shot down at the start! Very friendly village atmosphere, great marshalling...I'll definitely be back!
