In short: Really enjoyed this race - definate PB potential - well recomended
In full: Definately worth running this race, well organised, reasonably priced and great location. I was using the race as part of my training for a marathon, so personally did not get a pb, as hadn't rested before hand, (although only about 20 seconds off my pb). I feel if you have done the right training and rested a couple of days before hand there is a very good chance of getting a pb with this course as relatively flat. Water, medal, fruit and cereal bar at the end made this a bargain at around £10 to enter.

In short: Good PB Potential
In full: This year had near perfect weather conditions over the two laps. Got a PB, even though I messed up my Garmin again. Still calculated the distance to be accurate, once I realised the mess I'd made with the watch. The tight turns slow upset the rhythm, but you have just got to keep pushing to get the time. Small feild of runners means it does not get too congested at any point.
