In short: Lovely little race
In full: First time at Chasewater and I wasn't disappointed. Organisation was fantastic, good course and although it's generally flat, it is on tracks and trails which gets a little bumpy underfoot. Absolutely loved it, was well supported with spectators and even the dog walkers gave runners encouragement. Well done Chase Harriers - will certainly recommend this race to those at our club!

In short: Nice little race
In full: Very friendly good fun race.
I struggled with the fitness and consequently lumbered round in a 12month PW, but it's a good little race.
The downside is that it's a two lap course which I personally hate, but it wan't very demanding so is a nice one for beginners to try.
I come very very close to calling it quits at the halfway stage, but I'm gladd I struggled round.
Well done to the organisers.

In short: Decent run out at a lovely location.
In full: Difficult to overtake in places but was generally well marshalled if a little unenthusiastically at times. Nice views and pleased the rain held off even if it was a little windy. Pretty bog standard t-shirt. Would do again though.

In short: Comfortable like pulling on a favourite jumper
In full:
Didn't know we'd started until people in front of us began moving - you need a loudhailer or a big gob for next year Head Marshall!

Start aside it was well marshalled, lots of encouragement and the other competitors were good, decent people.

I'd been sick the week before so just completing it was pleasing, it was my other half's first 10K and she loved it.
