In full: Great organisation, good route although there were sometimes too many members of the public on the paths but as you were in Hyde park on a glorious sunny day, what do you expect? Lovely people organising it and helping out on the day.

In short: refreshing blast: good for speed, good for friendliness, good support and raising £ to boot.
In full: A leveller of a race. lovely to see a sea of blue charity colours. 3 choices of races, no club vests, fast runners and newbies. cheerleader with the megaphone deserves a mention for cheering and praising everyone. Not enough marshalls (or alertness in those there were), course was different to map with a lack of markers for those first off in the lead (my hub)and maybe holding it a bit earlier instead of 11am would ease congestion with the park users. Overall, good support and contact prior to the race, good turn out from the charity and good choice of distances. Thumbs up to the Stroke Association and to the racers, many of whom came in smiling and sprinting.
@GAVIN: you got flanked by jim a-b, my husband, he is a speed demon and the other 15k star regularly wins his races so you did well. They were pretty much flying.

In short: A well organised charity run with a mix of beginners and hard-core racers
In full: My first 10k race - I came in flanked on either side by the 1st and 2nd place finishers in the 15k! The organisation was good and the event was well-marshalled. A few bottle-necks, particularly on the first lap, with some runners keen to push through rather than accept everyone was in the same boat. Some kind of cycle event had been scheduled for the same day, which made the second lap interesting in parts. Overall an enjoyable time and no overly steep sections, so an opportunity for a good PB.
