In short: Great organisation and on closed roads
In full: I love this event because it's on closed roads with gentle hills in tree lined roads and through the town centre. We heard somebody else refer to it as the Shopping 10k too this year! Good 5k option (1 lap) for beginners

In short: Really enjoyed the event
In full: Some potential issues with 2 way traffic on a short section of the route. Marshalls could do with guiding runners onto path for that section.

In short: Relatively fast route round Fleet town centre. Course can be deivided up into three long stretches with a few inclines but nothing serious. Plenty of local support.

In full: Really well organised race with definate PB potential. No inclines to speak of and whole thing is very professional. Scenery nothing exceptional but you can't have everything!

In short: local 10k with good atmosphere and organisation
In full: 2 laps around the town, not the most scenic but good atmosphere and organisation. A nice race for beginners. Despite the undulations, it's a reasonably quick course...and a new sub-40mins PB, so pleased with that!
Only very slight grumble is that the results are not up online quicker (considering there was chip timing).

In short: A decent Sunday morning blast around Fleet
In full: Being a local club runner the course is only a slight variation on our handicap night route.
The race was well organised and the slight inclines do take their toll, well atleast they did on me!!
I think its a decent race thats worth doing, a good race for just blasting around as fast as able.
I also supplied the lead car for the race, just a shame I didnt run fast enough to keep up with it!!
