In short: Very enjoyable, as always
In full: Do this every year and always enjoy it, despite the monster hill at the start. Small, low key, friendly and fun. Very hot this year though!

In short: Lovely morning out for the whole family
In full: My 6th running of this event (why are previous year's reviews on runners world elsewhere?) and really enjoyed the whole morning as always. As did my family. Such a lovely, friendly event. Will be back again next year.

Only drawbacks were that kids missed not having a bouncy castle this year, and I could have done with a second water station due to the warm weather.

In short: Good, small race (but enter in advance)
In full: This is a good small-town race. Well organised, cheery marshalls and a nice country-roads course with a tough start. This is my local race (0.5M from home) and would do again provided I remember to register in advance. Was staggered to have to go home for more money after turning up with a speculative £15 for on-the-day entry.

In short: Challenging hill, great race, fabulous choc brownie in goody bag :-)
In full: First 1km straight up a killer hill but great run after that, last 1km run down the same killer hill which is pretty tough on the legs. Fantastic marshelling & great goody bag with local produce & home made choc brownie... just what you need after a race
