In full: My second time here and enjoyed it again. I find it very well organised and a very friendly event. Hard to understand why only about 200 people ran this.

In short: Great course, well organised, fantastic loos but very unfriendly marshals and poor support from spectators.
In full: I was really looking forward to this race as it seemed a relatively flat course but quickly found that it was largely geared for club runners with support only going to team members and the wind against you from mile 6 to 9.5miles. Would I do it again, yes but only to beat my time.

In short: Good time had by all!
In full: Ran this race this year with a friend who had not done a 10 mile race before. Good size field with a fair spread of runners of all abilities means there is something for everyone. Well organised HQ and friendly marshalls make this a great race to enter!

In full: Plenty of parking and toilet facilities at the start, well marshalled, good support throughout and lovely rolling course. Quite a strong cross wind but plenty of hedgerows for cover. 3 water stations was more than enough but only complaint is that I prefer a bottle of water as opposed to a cup.
Good turn out from lots of local teams, will definately have another go.

In short: great first 10 miler
In full: dont let the fast times of some of the runners put you off, its a good first timer 10M race with no major inclines, the roads arent that busy and if its your first 10 miler your guaranteed a PB :)
