In full: A small friendly race set on quiet country lanes. The 2.30 start is an added bonus for anyone travelling from away, however there were also prizes purely for local runners. Well worth the modest entry fee.

In short: A nice run in the country
In full: This race takes place over virtually empty country roads and seemed to be enjoyed by most who took part. It did suffer a little from the lack of pre and post race information but the decision not to even have a cup of water for runners when they finished the race especially on a hot afternoon was an incorrect one.

In full: no tshirt, no medal, no water at the end of the race considering it was a very hot day; marshals seemed disinterested, won't be back next year, even though it was a pb for me this year, knocking off 12 mins from last year!
