In short: A decent race with a nice downhill finish
In full: Our first time running the Great Bardfield 10k & overall felt it was a decent event.
Wasn't the most pleasant running along a fairly busy country road for 4k of the run, perhaps a more imaginative route could have been taken?
The field areas were a bit of a slog, but would have been far worse had it been wet.
On the organisation front, the use of a megaphone or PA would have been great at the start as the lady couldn't be heard. Would have liked a t-shirt or a medal rather than a water bottle!

In short: Friendly, quick course with lovely downhill finish
In full: Dry this year - hurrah, although farm tracks had a nice new layer of uneven hardcore which tested the ankles a bit. Always suits me this race. Local and PB'd it, so very happy.
