In short: 2010 race- Love it, love it, love it!!!
In full: This is the fourth time I've done this event, which is probably my favourite of the year. Even though it was pouring with rain it didn't stop a good number of spectators and the fantastic support from them and the many marshals is always very much appreciated by the runners. Well covered by local press and there is an announcer who names everyone over the PA as they come by/ in. Goodies and prizes weren't quite as generous as in past years- blame the credit crunch I guess- but still, the top 3 in each age group won a shield which was nice for a lot of people to have their achievement recognised. Although this is a PB course it's not an elitey race by any means and all standards, from internationals to walkers, are made to feel welcome and part of it. Thanks and well done everyone!!

In short: This is actually the 2009 race!!
In full: Have done this 3 times now and love it- really well organised and marshalled and the public come out in their droves to cheer- special mention to the guy who sits on his driveway at the top of the hill playing motivational music- much appreciated!! Two and a bit lap up and down course- the hill isn't horrendous (provided you train hills!) but is pretty long. Loads of prizes- cash and trophies- and the goody bag's got a Tshirt, water and chocolate, what more could you want!! Well done everyone, thanks for a great day.

In short: Nice One Mold
In full: Excellent runner and supportive spectator turnout. Faultlessly organised and very welcoming - thanks to all. Value could not be criticised. A PB possible and one to do again.

In short: great race ! !
In full: first time at this event, very good, nice long hill on a two lap course,-distance was spot on with my gps, good to see a sponge station!, lots of locals willing you on , very friendly atmosphere,good t-shirt and goody bag, i would give this race 99 out of 100 ,only for no finsher medal- would rather have a medal than a goody bag, being a bit picky now- best race this year!!!
