In short: A fantastically organized, staightforward, fast 5k - does exactly what it says on the tin.
In full: I've managed all 4 of this series and as a beginner to this distance it was great to test the water with the 1st, try to improve with the second, try a high risk suicidal fast start with the third and then finish with a bit of a steady but sure. The atmosphere has always been very friendly and yet at the same time competetive. I didn't quite manage to beat the 20min target I set myself so I'll definitely be back next year. I enjoyed the last course more than the original - seemed to know where I was within the race and new when I was half way which helped.

In short: Very fast race, lots of club runners going for it!
In full: We had 7 runners at this race and all enjoyed the fast course (4 Laps total) and tried hard to run each other down producing some very good times (Well done James) Pics at www.sleafordtownrunners.com
