In short: Excellent evening race
In full: This was the first time I have run this race,the course was quite challenging with a hard hill at 3 1/2 miles so not a PB course. the only criticism I have was the drinks station only had 2 people & on a hot evening there should have been more. but a great event and I will be back next year.

In short: Good hill but still a fast course. Its a small field running on an evening, don't exepct more than that and you won't be disappointed

In short: Good course but not traffic free, running space was limited at times.
In full: Some narrow paths, and single file running at times, but a good course. More for club runners really. Would have liked a map of the route available before hand. Will do again.

In short: Good race; nothing special but there aren't many 6 milers that are.
In full: Shame local youths nicked the 5 mile marker; felt the path from 1000 to 2000 metres was a tad narrow; also could have done with some marshalls around the bollards at about 600metres.

In short: Good race with fine organisation
In full: Well organised - long hill just before mile 4. Only comment was the mile marker at mile 5 seemed to be missing
