In short: My local training area, now the scene of a very good run.
In full: For a first race, very well done. More course information needed as the finish was a bit of a sudden surprise. I disagree with the comment of a lack of marshals. There was one at every turning warning of hazards underfoot and a good drinks station at mid point, courtesy of a local restaurant. Overall, a very good start on a lovely course in superb weather.

In short: Bad organisation, lack of marshalls and lack of direction to race start & finish

In short: Beautiful countryside, challenging 5k route.
In full: Good race, 2.5k downhill, 2.5k uphill, beautiful countryside. Organisation needs a little work but for an inaugural race it was a good start. Only specific comment would be a marker to sign the end of the 5k race as it was just a sharp right hand turn off the 10k course which wasn't obvious!
