In short: Enjoyable low-key event
In full: Good organisation, instant results, enjoyable course and great supporters. Particularly enjoyed being cheered over the finish line by a load of people I didn't know - a nice touch as had brought no supporters of my own! Very inclusive atmosphere.

In short: very good
In full: came in first at 37:27. based on previous results competition is variable and turnout was less than 200 (was a sold out 400 event). Does not seem to encourage repeat entrants at least at the top of the table but don't let this affect you taking part as it's very well organised, good varied terrain and typography and scenic. Could do with a portaloo or two and a more generous prize allocation.

In short: Fantasic 2nd 10Km Race loved it..
In full: Great run, absolutely freezing to start! Long hills that felt as if they never ended. Race started on time and went to plan. Enjoyed it and would love to do it again.

In short: I was horribly late, but still had a lovely time!
In full: Richmond Park was a glorious setting and staff were really nice about me being late due to transport problems. They let me run anyway and gave a big cheer when I finished, well in last place!
