In short: An excellent, challenging and well organised race
In full: This was my first Weald St George's 10k though heaven know why because I only live in Sevenoaks! It was brilliant! The course is challenging and interesting, the organisation is great and friendly, and the touch of the church having an Open Air Service before the race and the lady vicar running in the Fun Run resplendant in her vicarly robes was simply great!

In short: Where Weald Primary School, St George's Church and the village community unite to stage a challenging yet joyful run.
In full: You will be hard pushed to find a 10K race which offers more than this exceptionally well organised and friendly village event. Warm up takes place on the village green against the backcloth of an open air church service (with clergy in trainers!) and various food and refreshment stalls.
The run itself is a happy mixture of road and track and incorporates one sustained climb in the middle of the race and one sharp incline towards the end. Consequently, it is tremendously well-suited to competitors seeking a challenging experience prior to running a half-marathon.

In full: This is a well organised and wonderful run. All ages are welcome and there's a great atmosphere not to mention the beautiful setting.

In full: Very well organised, great atmosphere, accurately measured!!! Pretty location! Is a challenge which makes it interesting!! Was warned to save some energy for the end, came up the hill, felt fine, on a high, nearly finished!!! Than all of a sudden my legs went and i felt like i'd been hit over the head with a saucepan. My Darling Sister Shirley on the sideline shouting "Come on Eileen" got the the residents shouting it too! which got me through! Thanks to Brother in law Andy, Lionel, Melissa and Poppy the dog for their support!!! Would i do it again???? Absolutely!!!!
