In short: Well organised race
In full: Encapsulates all that is good about well organised local events. Enough runners to make it competitive, but with no overcrowding. Good support at the start and finish. An undulating course, with a welcome downhill finish. Great support and encouragement from the marshals.
(Please make sure that you don't let one of the large multi-national sports firms sponsor it).

In short: An enjoyable race over undulating roads
In full: The organisation for this annual event was impressive. Good signage, lots of marshalls where they were needed, impressive trphies (for those faster than me) and great support from the many roadside supporters.

In short: Well organised friendly Easter Monday jaunt with just a hint of hills
In full: A very friendly race - it looked as if half of Stanwick was out to cheer us on through the run. Real encouragement from the spectators and well marshalled. Course had a couple of tricky little hills where you didn't expect them but overall great fun. Got a PB as well so have to like it!

In short: Great Race.
In full: A great race. Well organised, a good rural course and supportive marshals.
Really nice atmosphere in the village. Official times seemed to be about a minute too fast.

In short: Superbly organised, great day out.
In full: Lovely village event, well organised and entusiastic marhals. Really good day out for all the family. Course was fine, a few uphills but generally a pb course! By pass only course downside but it was still possible to overtake if you had the energy. A goodie bag of some discription would have been nice for the younger family members, but overall a great little race.
