In short: Excellent Race - Well Done EVH
In full: We enjoyed great conditions, sun shining warmly however the road was shaded in places keeping you cool. The course was well marshalled and plenty of spectators giving encouragement. We would definitely recommend this run.

In short: Fabulous as usual!
In full: The sun shone with a gentle breeze, the mashalls gave encouragement and the crowd at the hill more so. EVH are well practiced at running a smooth event, which is why I keep coming back, even though thats where I finish - at the back- who cares, I did it!!!

In short: lovely evening race
In full: Reslly great race - lovely scenery on a warm sunny evening and the hill isn't so bad really.
Organisation fantastic as were the marshalls and supporting crowds along the wall and great atmosphere at start and finish. Great tshirt too and appreciated the bottle of water at half way and end (as opposed to half filled cups).
Great race. Arrive early if you want to park in Station car park.

In short: Good course, well organised, very good race.
In full: My first time here. Had been warned about the big hill after 2K but it was still a shock! A varied course though with downs as well as ups and PB potential if you get the pacing right. Very well organised - well doen Erme Valley Harriers.

In short: another well organised race by EVH
In full: great race, well marshaled. great crowd support in all the right places. big hill at 2km mark did not stop this being a fast course as lots of PBs on the night testify. Free massage, a good technical t-shirt and a bar to celebrate those PB. it cannot be bad!! Well done EVH, keep up the good work

In short: Fantastic organisation for such a big race.
In full: This was the first time I've done this race and I got a pb so I am very pleased. Yes there is a tough hill but it does level out and there are some fab. downhills to make up for it. Not easy to organize this many runners but I think it went like clockwork. Sensible to have the finish, start, bag store, all separated out so that people can spread out. Good t-shirt - no need for more water in my opinion on a 10k race - beginners can always carry water if they need it. Well marshalled - all in all a very good race

In short: Good event, well marshalled - and spectators dotted around to drive you on!
In full: This is actually a good 10K run and apart from one hill (most of us walked it)it was pretty easy to navigate. This was my first 10k and was pleased to come in under an hour. My only grievance would be lack of water stops. Could have done with at least two as opposed to one particularly as it was a warm day.
