In short: Excellent flat and fast course ................. PB, bring it on!
In full: Good fast and flat course along countryside lanes/roads. Little/no traffic on the course so very safe for those of us who choose to run on the white lines. Accurately measured (according to my gps watch) and with chip timing, anle straps, also very accurate timing. Definitely one for next year's race calendar, if I'm not too old or fat before then.

In short: Pleasant, fast 10k, great for beginners and seasoned pros alike
In full: My experience was dulled by the fact that my finishing time isn't on the results, otherwise it was a really good race. Course is very good.

In short: Fast!
In full: Everyone said this race had PB potential and boy were they right! Lovely route, 99% flat and a very useful mile timer at one and five miles - even if he did tell me I'd run faster if I stopped smiling! Misery! I was enjoying it and PB'd. Good day out and highly recommended!
