In short: Hard, hilly and enjoyable
In full: An undulating course with a harsh uphill first mile and numerous other steep hills provided a real test. With no chance of a fast time it's best to appreciate the run and take in some beautiful scenery. The last mile is a lovely downhill finish, much appreciated after a hard five miles! The organisation was good, the post-race buffet excellent and the atmosphere just right. A rewarding run, but make sure you've trained on hills beforehand!

In short: Great fun and bargain entry fee
In full: Very well organised race and where else do you get a free feed afterwards. Very friendly encouraging marshalls. Not the quickest course in the world - theres not a great deal - but a good fun morning out. Thanks DDT - great to see a small club be able to put a good road race on.
