In short: Good Jan 10k to dust away the Christmas/New Year cobwebs.
In full: Very cold (again) so wind on the exposed first mile or so not very welcome! Once you're up the first hill it's downhill all the way (pretty much...) so surprisingly quick. Well organised with a good long sleeve t-shirt at the finish and yummy mars bars. Thanks organisers!

In full: Great setting, great facilities, varied and interesting course. Congratulations and many thanks to Graeme and his team for making it so smooth, especially considering the weather leading up to the race on Sunday; I though there was a good chance of it being cancelled because of fallen trees nad such-like.

In short: Beautiful day, fantastic race!
In full: Very friendly atmosphere at the start and finish (excellent sound system pumping out funky tunes), lots of old friends and familiar faces, some nice views (if you looked back from the top of the first hill, the view of the hundreds of runners and the Queen's Stand in the sunshine was stunning), an undulating course with difficult surfaces and very very good marshaling, make this a fantastic race - one of my favourites. Well done to Graham (race director), to all his team and to Epsom Oddballs for a brilliant race.
